    While I see what your saying, that seems wildly inefficient, and sounds like you would be doing a lot of editing, and definitely is not helpful from a point of view of a manager who is trying to track project status or see at a glance what needs completed.

    We need a FEATURE REQUEST to get at least JOB level punchlists right away. Even better, some form of like what Service Titan does with the ability to put Jobs into Projects... and then the management function are in the 'Project' with the Jobs/Visits living inside of that, like a folder for the Job or Visit (Phases of a Job). The Punchlist(s) need to be global to the 'Project' ideally.

    Its surprising after like 7 years with Jobber that this is still not even remotely close to being usable for larger jobs spanning weeks or months. Which is incredibly common for Electrician, Plumbers, Mechanical, Low-Voltage, trades... all of which you say you cater too in your advertising. And i know its been requested.

    At $365/mo i think the basics of this should be included already, but I would consider even paying a few dollars more to add it, especially if it was more detailed and well implemented.
