Enter job detailsLast updated on 11/30/2022

When booking a job, take the time to ensure each detail about the job is entered correctly, both by listening to them carefully and checking their location using Map It. When job details accurately reflect what your customers want, it's easier for dispatchers to make smart decisions, and enables your technicians to give customers the best possible experience.


Things to know

  • When setting the priority level for a job, be sure not to set all of them as High or Urgent. If all jobs are set to High or Urgent, the ones that are genuinely High or Urgent priority will not stand out from the others. Most jobs should be set to Normal.

  • At many businesses, customer service representatives (CSRs) book jobs without assigning technicians to them, and dispatchers later assign technicians to jobs. You do not have to assign technicians to a job in order to book the job.

  • There may be additional fields on your business’s version of the Job Booking screen. If you have any questions about these custom fields, contact the administrator on your team.

  • Depending on your settings, you may see the Build Estimate button at the bottom of your job booking screen. To learn more, see Build and sell an estimate from the Job Booking screen.

  • If you have a default job summary that autofills after you've selected the job type, the job summary field in Job Booking adapts to the length of that summary.

  • You can configure your account to require that only BUs matching the customer's ZIP Code can be chosen on the Job Booking screen. To enable this feature, please contact your success or implementation manager.

  • If you have a default job summary that autofills after you’ve selected the job type, the job summary field in Job Booking adapts to the length of that summary.
