What a supervisor looks after
Everything a Studio Cloud supervisor looks after in one place: people, presses, materials, integrations, the press connector, colours and the licence.
A supervisor is a person who may change the shop's settings, invite people and give out jobs. A shop should always have two. This page is the map of what they look after, and where each is.

What stays a supervisor's
A plain Person can lay out jobs, save them, add a preset of their own and mark a job checked. They cannot invite people, hand out jobs, change Integrations, or take the shop's work out, and Materials opens to read. Everything that changes the presses or the connector is a supervisor's.
What a supervisor does each week
- Look at All sites. Anything that says Not heard from since needs a look. See When the press connector is quiet.
- Check Everyone's work for jobs nobody has, and use Hand out.
- Add any new stock to Materials with its Quick Set.
- Remove anyone who has left, so the seat is free.
