Once your daily report is signed, you can share it directly from the Raken mobile app — or set up automatic email distribution so the right people always receive completed reports without any manual effort.


Quick Answer

To share a completed daily report from mobile:

  1. Tap Project tools, select your project, and tap Daily logs.

  2. Navigate to the signed report and tap Preview report.

  3. Tap the ellipsis (…) menu in the top right.

  4. Select Share to send or Export to save the PDF.


How to Share a Daily Report from Mobile

Step 1: Open Daily Logs

Tap Project tools and select your project. Tap Daily logs and navigate to the date of the signed report.

Step 2: Preview the Report

Tap Preview report to open the completed report.

Step 3: Share or Export

Tap the ellipsis (…) menu in the top right corner. Select Share to send the PDF via email, message, or any app on your device. Select Export to save the PDF to your device.


How to Email a Daily Report from the Web

Step 1: Open the Project and Select the Date

Log into the Raken web app and open your project. Navigate to the date of the signed report using the calendar at the top of the page.

Step 2: Open the Reports Menu

Click the Reports button in the top right corner of the page and select Daily from the dropdown.

Step 3: Send the Report

In the modal that appears, click Email report. Enter the recipient email address and click Send.


Setting Up Automatic Report Distribution

Step 1: Open Project Settings

Log into the Raken web app and open your project. Click Settings in the left side menu, then select Daily Reporting.

Step 2: Add Email Recipients

Navigate to the Email recipients tab. Add the email addresses of anyone who should automatically receive the daily report.

Step 3: Save

Click Save. Recipients will receive the report PDF automatically every time a daily report is signed on that project.


Troubleshooting & FAQ

I shared a report but the recipient didn't receive it — why?

Ask the recipient to check their spam or junk folder. Automated reports are sent from no-reply@rakenapp.com.

Can I add report recipients from the mobile app?

No. Report email recipients are managed from the web app under Projects > Settings > Daily Reporting > Email recipients.

Can I send a report before signing?

You can share an unsigned report preview from mobile by tapping Preview report and using the Share option. Best practice is to sign first to ensure the report is complete and locked.


Technical Specifications

  • Compatibility: iOS 15+, Android 10+ (share from mobile); web app (set up recipients)

  • Offline Capability: No — sharing requires an active connection

  • Plan Required: All plans

  • Role Required: All users with project access (sharing); Account Admin or Project Admin (setting up recipients)


Considerations

  • Automatic email recipients receive the report every time it is signed — set this up once and it runs automatically for every future daily report on that project.

  • Collaborator (subcontractor) reports can also be included in the shared PDF if the Super Daily report option is selected.
