Hi LynnG ! Cam from Jobber Product Marketing here 👋 Thanks for trying out the new schedule! We’re working on an update that’ll let you choose how completed calendar items are styled—either grayed out or struck through while keeping their assigned color. This will be coming sometime in Q4, so keep an eye out!
We’re continuing to improve the new schedule and actively listening to feedback like yours to make it even better, so please keep sharing your thoughts! Is there anything else you think could be improved?
On formatting Notes: that;s a helpful suggestion. To give our team more insight into why this would be valuable for you, could you share what you'd want to highlight with formatting? Knowing the 'why' helps us assess the best way to support your workflow.
We use notes on every job. They are added at request stage and the Surveyor Notes are attached up to Quote stage. this one is used solely by management and scheduling..... this includes details like - how many man days, TPO information, what machinery will be needed on site etc.
We also add another note that is for the operatives, again this is added at request stage and goes through to invoice - this gives them information, like who the surveyor was so that if they have any questions they know who to contact. Also where to tip any waste as it is not always efficient to run back to the yard to tip. etc.
At the moment we cut and paste the question form at request stage and it is completed as we go through the processes but it is not always easy to read and see the details as they are always in the same writing and colour, especially in bright conditions.
If we were able to change the main wording into bold or another colour - this would make it a lot easier to see on a phone screen as there would be a differentiation. If this was in form style, we would be able to use drop down menus for most of the questions and that would be a big bonus.....
Don't worry about the other issue - we have sorted our own way of grouping the requests/jobs/tasks etc.
Got it! Thanks so much for the detailed explanation. I’ve shared this with our team to review. Your insights will be so valuable as we keep improving Notes in Jobber.
Let us know if you have any other feedback or questions!
