How to back up job photos and files from Jobber?
Hey all, just wondering if this is something others have run into. A few of our clients have been talking about how they handle long-term storage of job photos and documents, especially when staff leave, or when they want to organize files outside of Jobber. Some mentioned wanting to move things to Google Drive or DropBox automatically, but I’m not sure how common that need really is. Just curious, have you or your team thought about this? Is keeping a backup of Jobber media files part of your process, or not really a concern? Appreciate any thoughts! Josh150Views0likes2CommentsProjected revenue
I would like to look at my upcoming schedule (by day, by week, or a custom range), and see the projected revenue based on future visits. I own a lawn service/maintenance company, and we invoice our customers after every visit. For example, when I see tomorrow's schedule, I would like to see the total number of visits, the revenue associated with each visit, and the total revenue for the day. I have never found a report in Jobber for this. I'm surprised that it isn't on the dashboard. Does anyone else think similarly? Are there easy work-arounds?251Views3likes8CommentsWeather Widget 🌞🌧️❄️🔥
Is it possible to integrate Jobber with a weather app? On the dashboard, we were thinking a 7-day forecast could be visible. Also, I thought a small temperature reading on the monthly calendar would be visible. We also thought the weather for the day could be captured and saved as an internal note for the job.Solved77Views3likes5CommentsPLEASE add a kit function
Even the bottom of the barrel CRM that I'm currently using has a robust kit function. Create products with fully editable costs and quantities, then add those products to a kit (in this case, what a "service" should be). Once a kit is entered into a quote, individual products are hidden from the customer, but fully editable when creating the quote. As it is now, I have no idea what the difference between a "product" and a "service" are. They both have the same info (name, description, cost, etc). You should just be able to group products to form services. If i have a product of "labor" and a product of "receptacle". I should then be able to create a service of "Replace Receptacle". That service would consist of my labor product, and my receptacle product. Both with quantities and costs that I could edit when creating a quote. Since not all receptacles are the same, and my customer doesnt care whether its a duplex or a decor, being able to edit the cost of that receptacle, straight from the kit during quote creation, would be amazing.Solved60Views2likes8CommentsNew Invoice Feature
Great improvement on being able to apply a payment to multiple invoices, however, in Lawn Care we do a lot of prepayments prior to our season and at this time Jobber does not have a definitive way to apply that money correctly. With the new feature, it would be a start if we could apply a payment to future invoices. So, when the invoices are created for the season, we can apply the payment made for the whole season.10Views0likes1CommentOut of cell service area access
Wondering how many of us work in areas that have poor or no cell coverage? In my area that is quite frequent and we can't access jobber online or the app so no job time tracking or marking it as completed, etc. Is there any way around it beside waiting to have cell/data service? Thank you,Solved10Views1like2CommentsScheduling ease Vs technician clarity…
Hi all, We have a lawn care business, majority of work is recurring and we’re trying to balance things between scheduling simplicity/ease and clarity for the field crew as far as target job times. Up till now I’ve been scheduling jobs in 30min blocks - mostly either 30mins or 60mins, it’s just easy to drag & drop to organise a day. If a job target time is 20 or 25mins, I list that in the job instructions for the techs. The downside that my wife keeps pointing out, is that if the scheduled time is 30mins, the techs will drag it out to 30mins. So she wants a job with a 25min target time to actually have a 25mins scheduled time. To me that creates dramas when I have my Ops Manager hat on, I mostly look at the schedule in week view and anything less than 30mins on the schedule is practically unreadable. (Maybe the new Schedule will be better, but I haven’t switched over because I need the bulk move visits feature.) Any comments or idea are appreciated. 🙏Solved16Views1like1CommentSuggestion: Quotes / Invoices Sub Items for Main Line Item
Hello Jobber Team, 🛠️ Why We Use Sub-Items in Our Quotes & Invoices When it comes to handyman and construction work, no two jobs are exactly alike — and we believe your quote should reflect that. That’s why we organize our quotes and invoices with main line items and sub-items, and here’s why that matters: ✅ Customizable Work Scopes Sometimes a project includes optional jobs based on your preferences or budget. For example, your quote might include: • Job 1: Deck Repair - Materials - Labor • Job 2 (Optional): Flooring Install - Materials - Debris Disposal Fee - Labor You can easily see what's included and choose what fits your needs. ✅ Transparency You Can Trust No vague charges or confusing totals. Every part of the job is broken down so you can see exactly what you're getting — from screws and wood planks to disposal and labor. ✅ Smoother Approvals & Communication Want to move forward with just one section of the job for now? No problem. Sub-items make it easy to discuss, approve, or remove parts without reworking the entire quote. ✅ Budget-Friendly Flexibility This system lets us work with you on cost — you can prioritize essential work and schedule optional items for later, all while keeping track of the big picture. At the end of the day, we want your estimate to be as clear, flexible, and tailored as the work we provide. 🧰📋25Views0likes1Comment🚗Fleet Sharp and Schedule (alpha) Split Screen
Hello, Our Fleet Sharp trackers do Not populate on the schedule (Alpha) split screen. We heard about Force Fleet at the spring feature announcement, and we have seen screenshots of Force Fleet trackers visible on the schedule split screen. We are wondering (hoping 🙏) if Jobber will update the split screen to show both Force Fleet AND Fleet Sharp trackers. We are wondering if anyone has heard or knows info regarding this topic. Thank you32Views1like2CommentsManaging Year-Long Jobs with Multiple Tasks & Recurring Visits
Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice on how others are managing long-term jobs in Jobber that span a full year and include many steps or tasks—some one-off and some recurring. For us, scheduling a yearly maintenance job has been a challenge. Are you setting up one Job with many visits, or are you creating a separate Job for each task in the contract with multiple visits for each? When converting a quote to a job, Jobber allows multiple jobs from a single line item, which sometimes leads to duplicates and scheduling issues. Another challenge is payments by installment—we need the job total to match the installment price rather than the full contract value, and I’m wondering how others are handling this. In other programs, scheduled tasks would turn gray to indicate they had already been converted to a job. If they needed to be scheduled again, we could either add a visit to the existing job or delete it and create a new one. Does Jobber have a workflow that allows for something similar? Would love to hear how you structure your jobs to keep scheduling and payments running smoothly!25Views1like1Comment
