Job Lifecycle
Jobs follow a lifecycle through these statuses:
- Scheduled - The job has been created and is awaiting its start date
- In Progress - Work on the job has begun
- Completed - The job has been finished successfully
- Signed Off - The customer has signed off the completed work
- Cancelled - The job has been cancelled
Changing Status
You can change a job's status from the job detail page. The system records timestamps when a job is completed, signed off or cancelled.
What Happens on Completion
When a job is marked as completed, the completion date is recorded. The job remains visible in the customer's job history and can be sent for customer sign-off. See "Job Sign-Off and Reviews" for the sign-off flow.
What Happens on Sign-Off
Once a customer signs off the work - on site or through a public sign-off link - the job moves to Signed Off and the signature, name and sign-off date are stored against the job.
What Happens on Cancellation
Cancelled jobs are kept for record-keeping but are clearly marked with a Cancelled badge.
Where Jobs Appear
Jobs can be viewed from the main Jobs list, the Customer detail page, the Property detail page and dashboard calendar widgets.
