Creating a new Job

Modified on Fri, 20 Feb at 11:07 AM

Jobs are a parent of Visits - these can be a way to easily group multiple Visits together.


When a Visit is created normally a Job is also created automatically, however, they can also be manually created. This process functions similarly to creating a visit


To create a new Job navigate to the Creation Page which can be found in Jobs/Visits > Create New.

Address Lookup


The first step is to enter the property postcode.



You can use either the Postcode search or enter the address manually.



For the postcode search to work there must be a space between the area and local codes (for example: M33 2AA).


If the property already exists in your database it will be marked in grey, otherwise it will be blue.


Once you have found the property you require simply click the list item.
