Logistics Tablet Select Job

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.

The columns on the 'Select Job' screen are able to be sorted, allowing for easier visibility of certain jobs, e.g. for a particular client, or particular house type. Simply tapping on the column name will sort in ascending/descending order.

The results of the search based on the entered criteria, in order of Site Start, which presents the list in Build Sequence.
