KEY BENEFITS: A DEEPER DIVE
Let’s delve deeper into the benefits of the Job View feature set:
Job Grouping
It all starts with the ‘Group by Job View’ checkbox on the Presentation tab. This setting allows the logical grouping of job-related labor, parts, sublets and notes into easy-to-read job containers, streamlining presentation on screen for shop staff and the resulting documents for customers.
Quick Handling of Deferred Work
Any jobs not sold today can quickly be saved to any available tab in the Revisions screen with a single click. The destination tab is automatically renamed to reflect the job, so it’s ready to sell on your customer’s next shop visit. This small but impactful feature ensures you never lose track of previously estimated work, improving sales potential and overall workflow efficiency.
Profit Per Job at Your Fingertips
Job View makes it possible to now confirm the profitability of individual jobs, providing confidence in your shop’s direction, ensuring you meet shop performance goals. The Check Profit screen gains additional insights for Manager SE shops with the brand-new Gross Profit $ per Hour calculation.
Multiple Discount Options
Apply discounts exactly how you need them. Job View supports an order-level discount (customer type or similar, etc.) plus multiple job-specific discounts, allowing shops to discount any jobs they want to.
Customizable Appearance for Your WIP/Order Screens
Personalize your workspace to fit your needs. With multiple font styles and sizes with a bold text option, plus a new a dark mode option, users can now further customize the appearance of their screens to ensure maximum readability. Best of all, these screen preferences are always saved to User profiles.
