Create and Dispatch a Job to a Job Lead

to a Job Lead The JOBS & QUOTES tab provides end-to-end control of every job or quote at every location. Jobs and Quotes are core to the delivery of service and business operations. They can be scheduled now or scheduled to dispatch later. They can be dispatched to one technician or to a Job Lead with unlimited members. They can last one minute, an extended duration over multiple days, or repeat on a recurring timeframe throughout the year or years. In addition, they can focus on a specific customer asset. Jobs can be created from several places within the web from JOBS & QUOTES, from the SCHEDULER, from CUSTOMERS, from ASSETS - and on the mobile device. Use Scheduled Jobs in conjunction with the Scheduler to ensure the right tech has the right job at the right time. FieldAware offers the following two ways to create and dispatch jobs; Dispatch to a Job Lead who occasionally has a crew and generally will complete the task in one-visit. This module focuses on the single time slot for one technician. Dispatch to a Crew when each crew member receives notification of the job with individual planned times and tasks to complete on a project. The module Create and Dispatch a Job to a Crew addresses this use case. To create a scheduled job using the NEW JOB entry tab requires Enable Job Create, Enable Job List, and Enable Job View in either Role or User Roles & Rights security settings. Jobs can be created with the following options or combination of options: As a Scheduled Job Scheduled date & time for immediate dispatch As a Deferred Job Scheduled date & time with a later dispatch As a Crew Job With multiple technicians or contractors As an Unassigned Job - Without a job lead As a Multi-Day Job Duration beyond working hours for one (1) day As a Recurrent or Repeating Job With reiterating scheduled date & time As an Asset Job With an asset focus For example, a scheduled job can be scheduled for several days or a recurring job can be unassigned.
