Honestly, I was fully expecting an actual proper way to manage maintenance contracts. I still can't believe it hasn't been implemented yet. It's the most frustrating part of jobber. Yes, the new features are pretty neat and will appease some folks. But please for the love of God, get maintenance contracts sorted out!
I completely agree.
Are there plans to create a bulk schedule for packaged services? Our standard service schedule varies season to season, with various services being performed throughout the year.
The current method of setting this up is extremely time-consuming.
Customers are on a 12-month Maintenance Contract with Level Billing
Contract Maintenance Services that need to be scheduled:
This! Having flexibility of predefining schedules would be very beneficial. We do irrigation checks that are seperate to maintenance visits and varies by season, along with fertilization. However, I have to create 4 different jobs per service for to ensure the schedule frequency is correct. Or even treatments that take once a year. Very time consuming.
Everyone needs this to be a feature. It's brutal!

We do the same and its a pain having to create all these jobs every year. One job for the flat rate invoicing and then all these others jobs for those specific services that dont hold any of the invoicing.
