Statuses and actions on jobs and appointmentsLast updated on 03/14/2023

This article explains the statuses you see and actions you can take on jobs and appointments.


Job status

Job status is in the upper right portion of a job record. The job status tracks the progress of a job. A job's progress is determined by how many appointments are in Done status on the job. This is tracked by a gray circle that turns green as progress is made, and by the percentage complete, which appears inside the circle.

Status
Explanation

Scheduled

A job appears as Scheduled when all appointments are in scheduled status, or if one appointment is scheduled and one is on hold.

In Progress

As soon as the first technician is dispatched, the job moves to In Progress and stays that way until it’s completed, canceled, or put on hold.

Completed

No more work is expected on the job. Either a technician or office employee completed the job. Jobs can be completed early when not all appointments are done.

Hold

A job is in Hold status when all appointments on the job are put on hold using Job Actions on the Job Record or when the last or only appointment on a job gets put on hold.

Canceled

When a job is canceled through job actions.



Appointment status

The appointment status tracks the progress of each appointment. It's in the top left corner of each appointment card.
