How to Customize Report Headers and Footers in CrewBox

Put project info, dates, page numbers — any recurring data — at the top and bottom of every report page.

Steps

  1. Open the report in the editor and select the Settings tab.
  2. Find the Header and Footer fields — each has left, center, and right slots, so one line can carry three pieces of information.
  3. Type static text directly ("Confidential — for client use only"), and/or:
  4. Tap the insert-token control to drop in dynamic {{...}} placeholders — project name, dates, page numbers, and similar fields that fill themselves in at PDF time.
  5. Toggle Show header / Show footer on.
  6. Generate the PDF — every page carries your header and footer.

The Settings tab exposes six header/footer slots that accept tokens like Title, CompanyName, and PageNumber.

Mixing Static Text and Tokens

Tokens and text combine freely in one slot:

  • Left header: {{project_name}} → the job's name on every page
  • Center footer: Page {{page}} style numbering
  • Right header: your company name as plain text

Because tokens resolve at generation time, a template with tokenized headers works for every project — the same template prints "Oak Street Remodel" on one job and "Maple Ave Roof" on the next.
