This Help Article covers:

General/Overview:

When entering a new Customer, the first Location (Job Site/Address) is created using the New Customer entries:

  • Primary Contact: First Name / Last Name - Creates the first Location’s “Contact”

  • Primary Contact: Email / Business Phone - Creates the first Location’s Contact’s “Phone” and “Email”

  • Customer Details: Street Address - Creates the first Location "Address"

On Save, the first Location creates and populates the Customer's Default Job Site/Address.

⚠️ NOTE: The first Location is created without a "Name" as there is only one location.

⚠️ NOTE: If the "Street Address" is NOT entered when creating the new Customer, the Customer's first Location and Default Job Site/Address populate with the Customer's Contact's Name. You will need to go to the Location and Enter an Address.

Additional Locations can be added as a Customer may have multiple Job Sites where work is carried out.

Additional Locations can be added in two ways, from a:

  • Customer - From the Customer Window's Locations Top Tab, and

  • Job - From the Job's Job Site/Address field's Popup

Each Location can have a different Contact Person.

Each Location can have Site-specific “Details” for the Location that will populate the Job's “Full Job Notes” field when the Location is selected as the Job's Job Site/Address.

To Add a Location from a Customer

Quick Flow:

  • Customer Window

  • Locations Top Tab

  • Locations Expandable Section

  • [+ADD]

  • Location Details

  • [SAVE]

1. From the Customer Window, Press the Locations Top Tab to display the Locations Expandable Section, then Press the [+ADD] button to display the New Location Popup

2. From the New Location Popup, complete the Location Details:

  • Enter a "Name" for the Location (Must be a Unique Name)

  • Add an "Address*" for the Location

  • Select a "Contact" Person for the Location (Optional)

  • Enter any Site-specific "Detail" you want to populate to that Job (Optional)

⚠️ NOTE: As the first Location is created without a "Name", Additional Locations require a Unique Name, as the "Name" is used to identify the Location. I.E. you can't Save another Location without a "Name" entered, as a Location without a "Name" already exists.

💡 TIP: If the Location does not have a specific Name, for the Unique Name, use the Street Number and Street Name.

💡 TIP: For a Contact Person to be available for selection as a Location "Contact", they need to have been entered as a Customer's Contact Person first.

3. When finished [SAVE]

⚠️ NOTE: Changing the Customer's "Primary Job Contact" will not override any entered Contact Person for a Location, this needs to be done manually for each Location.

⚠️ NOTE: You cannot make a Customer's Contact Person Inactive while they are the Contact for a Location. Either: Select another Contact Person for, or clear the Contact Person from, any Locations.

To Edit a Location from a Customer

⚠️ NOTE: Editing the Location Information at the Customer does not "Push" the editing to already created Jobs. To update the information of already created Jobs, the Job Site/Address Dropdown of the Job needs to be used to Re-select the Location and update the information.

1. From the Customer Window, Press the Locations Top Tab to display the Locations Expandable Section, then Press on a Location to launch the Location Popup

2. From the Location Popup, Edit as required, then Press [SAVE] to save the editing

To Add a Location from a Job

Quick Flow:

  • Job Window

  • Job Site/Address

  • Open Address Details Icon

  • [SAVE AS SITE]

  • Name

  • [SAVE]

1. From a Job Window’s Job Site/Address field, Enter the address to display a list of options and select an option

2. From the Job Site/Address, Press the Open Address Details Icon to open the Job Site/Address Popup, then Press [SAVE AS SITE] to display the New Location Popup

3. From the New Location Popup, Enter a Location "Name", then Press [SAVE] to return to the Job with the Job Site/Address displaying the Location "Name" and Address

⚠️ NOTE: Locations cannot be Edited from the Job. To Edit a Location, go to the Customer Window's Locations Top Tab.

To Select a Customer Location as a Job Site

Selecting a Customer Location as a Job Site is done from the "Job Site/Address" field of a Job Window.

⚠️ NOTE: If the Job Site has not been added as a Customer Location, the Site will not be available for "Selection" and the Job Site/Address will need to be entered as a new Address or added as a new Location from the Job.

Quick Flow;

  • Job Window

  • Job Site/Address

  • More Options Icon

  • Location/Site

  • [SAVE]

1. From a Job Window’s Job Site/Address field, Press anywhere in the Job Site/Address field to display the More Options Icon (Don't Press on the Open Address Details Icon)

2. From a Job Window's Job Site/Address field, Press the More Options Icon to display a List of entered Locations, then Select a Location as the Job Site/Address, then Press [SAVE] of the Job Window

💡 TIP: The Job Site/Address default populates from the Default Job Site/Address entered at the Customer, so if the Customer has multiple Job Sites and you don't want to accidentally put the wrong Location on a Job, leave the Default Job Site/Address field of the Customer "blank", then select a Location for the Job Site/Address when adding the Job.
