Job Management

Job Options

The Job Options page displays options available to this job. It lists the option name and the corresponding value for that option. For example, a builder may use a porcelain bathtub as a standard, but also offer a porcelain whirlpool tub, marble tub or marble whirlpool tub. An option gives the customer a choice in the building process by offering upgrades or non-standard amenities. Job Options are available to all jobs.

 

Options added through integration are flagged as Active. Options deleted through integration are flagged as Inactive. The Job Options page does not display deleted (inactive) options unless the BuildPro company has the "Store Deleted Options as Inactive" variable set to 'Yes.' When this variable is set to 'Yes,' instead of deleting options via integration, options are flagged as Inactive in the database allowing users to view all options (Active and Inactive) for a job. This variable is only available for BuildPro companies that are using the Hyphen .NET Integration and that are sending Option information to BuildPro.

Inactive options are not displayed in SupplyPro.
