Job Management

 

The Job Management section is the control center for anyone managing a building project. It lets you add new jobs, manage the schedule for a specific job, manage orders and tasks and view current and late tasks via the calendar. The Job Management page contains two tabs, the Job List tab and the To Do List tab. Depending on your user role, you may be able to access some or all of these job management functions. Click here for a full explanation of the effects of changing the schedule.

Job List

The Job List tab shows all jobs, sorted by phase, that you can access.

To use the Job List:

  1. Click the Subdivision field and choose the appropriate subdivision.

  2. Click the Job Status field and choose the status of the jobs you want to see. A list appears showing your jobs (sorted by phase) based on the search criteria you typed.

To Do List

From the To Do List tab you can view tasks for a specific building, subdivision, job, supplier, task type. You can also add notes, take action on checklist items, mark any tasks with exceptions or document the percent complete for a task from the To Do List. The filters that are selected on the To Do List depends on how your User Profile is setup. The number of tasks and type of tasks that appear depend on the selections you make in the task filter area. Once your To Do List appears, you can take action on the tasks from this page.

To use the To Do List:

  1. If needed, click the Building, Subdivision/Phase, Job, Supplier, or Task Type filters to narrow the amount of tasks to manage.

  2. In the Task Filter area, click the necessary boxes to filter the tasks that appear in the To Do List.

  3. Click the Show Tasks button. Use the View Printable link to create a copy of the To Do List for printing.

  4. Checking the check box beside a task will perform the next action on the task. For example, a scheduled task will be started; an in progress task will be completed. Notes will only be added when an action is taken on a task (started or completed).

  5. Use the Schedule Change Reason field and Schedule Change Supplier field to apply a schedule change reason or supplier responsible for the schedule change.

  6. Click Update.
