Article Index
The Select Job screen allows users to search for a client or job using multiple search criteria. The Search Results list displays the results of a search.
Search Group
Searching can be performed on all or part of the entered criteria.
Example
Entering 'A' into the Street Name field will, once the Refresh button has been tapped, list all street names that begin with, or include, the letter A.
Importantly, upon any update within the search criteria, the 'Refresh' button from the side bar or context bar must be pressed.
If the required job is not found, modify the search criteria.
The following fields are able to be used to filter the results of the job search.
Field | Description |
|---|---|
Lot Number | Lot number of the house. |
Street Number | Street number of the house. |
Street Name | Street name of the house. |
Suburb | Name of the suburb the house is located in. |
Job Number | Number of the job. |
Client | Name of client. |
Supervisor | Name of the construction supervisor. |
Manager | Name of the construction manager. |
House | Type of house. |
Select Stage | Current stage of the house. Tap the required stage. Example: Administration, Construction, Handover, Maintenance. Tip: Multiple stages can be selected. |
Some users and companies may utilise different fields to classify jobs, e.g. house type, lot #, client etc. Knowledge of this process can be applied to filter and sort results to suit your workflow.
