Add Workers to Permit or Form After It's Been Submitted
Need to add more workers after submitting a permit, PTP, or JHA? No problem. You can update the crew list and collect signatures from additional workers without changing the original submitted responses. This ensures your records remain accurate while preserving the integrity of the original form.
When will you need to do this?
-
A worker arrived late and needs to be included on the permit/PTP/JHA.
-
Someone was missed during the original submission but still needs to be recorded and (if required) signed.
Step-by-step Guide with Video
-
Open the Breadcrumb app and go to the site.
-
Open the Permits tile (for permits) or Forms tile (for PTP/JHA / generic forms).
-
Find and open the submitted record you need to update.
-
In the record view, tap Add Crew.
-
Select the workers to add.
-
Capture signatures (if enabled for that template).
-
Save/confirm. The record stays Submitted (it does not go back to Draft).
Common issues
Trying to add a worker who is offsite/not checked in
Note: If the template requires crew signatures, offsite workers can’t be added.
What to do
-
Have the worker check in onsite first, or (if appropriate) your admin can change the template setting so signatures are Optional/Disabled.
Trying to change answers or photos after submission
Note: Only the crew list + signatures can be changed post-submission.
What to do
-
If the submitted content is wrong, you’ll usually need to submit a new corrected form/permit (your site process may vary).
Why this matters
-
Keeps an accurate record of who was actually covered by the permit/PTP/JHA.
-
Captures signatures with timestamps and records which foreman added each worker after submission.
Need help?
If you don’t see Add Crew on the submitted record, contact your GC site team to confirm your permissions and whether that form/permit template supports adding crew after submission.
