I keep track of estimated job times by putting the expected hours right in the job description or line item notes when creating the quote.
When it comes time to schedule, we use a external scheduling app. I drag the job onto the calendar grid and manually stretch or adjust the visit block to match the actual duration.
If you want to save time, you can also set start and end times directly on the schedule step when creating the job, or turn on line item durations in your settings if you have standard durations set up for your services.
That is what customer support suggested. It’s just very hard and laborious to scale with several hundred jobs per week. For now, I think we’re going to see what kind of stuff we can do with their API to help us out. I just really wish unscheduled jobs allowed some sort of time management. It would fix a lot of issues and really make Jobbers own routing tool, much better.
