Schedule and crew
One list for the supply run
Before a supply run, ask CrewBuddy what you need for the next few days. It goes through the jobs on your calendar and the notes and estimates you have shared, and makes one list grouped by store.

Fictional example.
Where the list comes from
CrewBuddy reads the jobs on your calendar for the days you name, then looks at what you have told it about each one: the estimate, the colors and products, site visit notes and photos of a materials list. It writes down only what those notes say. When a job has a product but no amount, it puts it in a separate list instead of guessing a number.
Name your usual stores once, like “paint from Sample Paint Supply, lumber from Sample Lumber,” and it groups the list that way from then on.
Fewer trips, same check
One list for two or three days of jobs can save a trip, and grouping by store keeps the run short. Read it over before you buy: you know the job, the waste you plan for and what is already in the trailer.
After the run, text what you picked up and what was out of stock. CrewBuddy keeps that with the job, so the crew plan and the tomorrow check know what is ready.
The quote from site visit notes recipe is a good place to record materials in the first place. For the night before, see the crew plan.
What you send
The days to cover, and any notes it does not have yet, like a voice note from a site visit or a photo of a materials list.
What CrewBuddy prepares
A list by store and by job, with the amounts your notes and estimates give, plus a short list of items with no amount yet.
What to keep in mind
CrewBuddy works from the amounts you give it. It does not measure, order or pay for anything, so check the list against the job before you buy.
