Updating Job Status
As you work through each stop, update the job status in the mobile app. This keeps the office view current and creates an accurate record of when work was done.
Status Progression
Each stop moves through a standard set of statuses:
| Status | What it means | When to set it |
|---|---|---|
| Upcoming | Not yet started | Default — no action needed |
| Arrived | You are on-site | When you pull into the property |
| In Progress | Work has started | When you begin the service |
| Complete | Work is done | After finishing all service tasks |
Marking Arrived
When you reach a stop:
- Open the stop from the Today screen
- Tap Arrived
- The timestamp is recorded automatically
The dispatcher can see when you arrived in real time.
Marking In Progress
Tap Start Job when you begin working. This is optional but useful if you want to track time on-site separately from drive time.
Completing a Stop
When the work is done:
- Tap Complete Job
- Add any notes about what was done (optional but recommended)
- Optionally capture a photo or signature (see linked guides)
- Confirm completion
The stop turns green on the dispatcher's board. If the customer was set up to receive a completion notification, the SMS is sent automatically.
Adding Notes
You can add notes at any point during or after the stop:
- Open the stop
- Scroll to the Notes section
- Type your note
- Notes save automatically
Notes are visible to dispatchers and can be referenced if customers call with questions.
Tip
Even brief notes are valuable: "treated back yard only, front gate locked," "customer declined interior treatment today." They protect you and help the office answer customer questions accurately.
