Choose your setup: the first question, and the four answers
Chapters
Before Fivexer asks you for a team name, a worker or a shift, it asks one question: who are
you setting this up for? It is not a preference. The answer decides which steps you are shown,
in what order, and what the flow treats as finished.
Four answers, four endings
Each option states its own ending on the card, so you can judge it before committing:
- Just me — you route your own work and pick it up yourself. Ends with your first
assignment routed to you. - My team, and I work in it — a lead who takes assignments alongside everybody else.
Ends with your first accepted assignment, and the team invited. - My team — I only manage — work goes to your people and you watch it land. Ends when a
teammate accepts the first assignment, on a board rather than in a worker portal you have
no reason to sign into. - A rota I need to publish — shifts that have to be covered, by a team or by just you.
Ends when your crew has next week.
The step rail on the left changes to match the moment you choose, and nothing in the copy
promises a step count, because the four paths genuinely do not have the same number of steps.
The choice lives on the device rather than in the workspace, so it shapes a walkthrough and
is not something you have to get right forever. What counts as done is derived from saved
records, never from which button you pressed: reload, switch device, or come back tomorrow,
and you land on the step the workspace is actually on.
The solo path, end to end
The video walks Just me, which is three steps and then a result.
Your profile. Name the team you work in and keep the skills you actually use. These are
not the same kind of fact. The team is what work gets addressed to; the skills are how the
engine ranks you against everybody else who could take it. Worth being precise about, because
it is the thing most people get backwards.
Your sign-in. The worker ID is derived from your email address, so it is something you can
read off a screen and retype, and the PIN is generated for you rather than invented. There is
no email round trip: scan the QR code to carry the sign-in to the phone you will actually work
from.
Your first assignment. One line of description is enough. Create and route it, and look at
the chip underneath: that is the tag it routes on, and it is the team you named two steps
earlier. That tag is what makes anybody eligible at all. The weighted skills only order the
people the tag has already let through.
Setup then reports itself finished. Your first assignment is on its way to you, you are on
shift, and your hours and completed work are readable from the console.
Next, if you are deciding what to hand to other people:
Three ways in.

You have just signed up, and there is nothing in here yet. Before this product asks you for anything else, it asks you one question. That question decides your whole setup.
Who are you setting up. There are four answers, and they do not lead to the same place. Each one states where it finishes, right there on the card, and the steps down the left change to match the one you pick.
Just me is for routing your own work, and it ends with your first assignment routed to you. My team, and I work in it, is the lead who takes assignments alongside everyone else, so it ends with your first accepted assignment and your team invited. My team, I only manage, ends somewhere different again, when a teammate accepts. And a rota I need to publish is the shift side of the product. That one ends with your crew having next week.
Take the first one. Name the team you work in, and keep the skills you actually use. The team is what work gets addressed to. The skills are how the engine ranks you against everyone else who could take it.
Now your way into the worker app. The ID is taken from your email address, and the PIN is already picked, so there is nothing to invent and nothing to wait for. Scan the code to carry it to your phone, and stay switched on to start receiving work.
One line is enough for the first assignment. Create and route it. The chip underneath is the tag it routes on, and it is the team you named two steps ago. That tag is what makes anyone eligible at all.
That is setup finished. Your first assignment is on its way to you and you are on shift, so your hours and your completed work are yours to read from here. The other three paths each have a guide of their own, and each one ends where it promised.
