Walkthrough

Step by step

  1. 01

    Create or review the Job

    Confirm Customer, location snapshot, title, priority, operational status, and source Quote where present.

  2. 02

    Choose the schedule view

    Use Day, Week, or Agenda for the planning question at hand. Use Dispatch when coordinating workers and unscheduled work.

  3. 03

    Check availability and conflicts

    Review worker availability and any detected overlap before saving the assignment.

  4. 04

    Assign the right team member

    Assign only a live eligible member who needs the Job. The worker sees limited to the assigned work information, not unrestricted business data.

  5. 05

    Confirm what the customer can see

    Scheduling and worker evidence remain private unless the business deliberately publishes customer-safe progress.

  6. 06

    Wait for an explicit save result

    Job Stage, Task, Issue/Damage, Company Asset/location and assignment-material forms show a pending state, then one visible result. A validation result keeps safe entered values, a conflict asks you to reload, and an unexpected failure shows a safe support reference. Do not repeatedly submit while the first save is pending.

Troubleshooting

If something does not look right

The worker cannot see the Job.

Confirm active business membership, the exact live assignment, and that the worker is using My Day or My Jobs in the correct business.

The schedule rejects the assignment.

Review overlap, availability, Job state, and worker eligibility. Do not repeatedly submit stale schedule data.

A Job change did not save.

Follow the result shown beside the form. Correct named fields, reload a changed record, or give support the displayed reference. The reference is safe to share and does not contain the form values.
