Use the contactless experienceLast updated on 09/14/2022

• Contactless experience is one of many new features built to assist your business during these challenging times. For more COVID features, see COVID Product Pack.

• You do not need access to the Customer Portal feature for the contactless experience.

• The Technician can select either an email address or mobile phone number associated with either the job’s location or the job’s bill-to address if documents will be e-signed, when the Customer will is sent a PDF copy of each document. Selecting a mobile number is optional.

• The customer will receive a notification by email or SMS text message every time the technician requests an e-signature.

• When customers sign documents using the Visit Assistant, they are automatically added to the job audit trail in the same way they currently are if the signatures were collected with the ServiceTitan mobile app.

• If an estimate for a job was sold online, technicians can choose whether to perform the work now or later.

• Online Estimates are not shown in the Visit Assistant, and a link where they can be seen are instead emailed to the customer when the estimate is sold. Note that the employee who sold the estimate receives credit for its sale, not the technician who emailed a link to the estimate.

• Customers can access the Visit Assistant and review estimates for up to 60 days.

• When customers sign standard forms using the Visit Assistant, the signature is applied to the corresponding form field. However, if a customer signs a PDF, then their signature is added to a blank page added to the end of the PDF.

• You can customize the E-Sign email you send to customers, but not the SMS text message.

• This feature does not work in offline mode.
