Home Screen
Overview
The Home Screen is where the technician will land immediately after logging into the app. The Home Screen allows the technician to access every area of the app & is broken down by various cards: Time Card, Work Orders, Parts & Requests.
Time Card
The Time Card section is where the technician can clock in and out for the day, lunch, personal or after hours. As well as submit their daily time card and review daily/weekly time cards.
Work Orders
This provides the technician with an overview count of what is currently in their WIP (Work In Progress). After selecting View List, the app will take the technician to the WIP screen where they can manage their lists of work orders. NOTE: Completed work orders will show for about 24 hours after completion and then be automatically removed from the WIP screen.
Parts
Parts List overview can be viewed from the Home Screen. The list includes the Part Location(s) name, the total quantity parts and the last sync date/time. To look further into Parts, select [View List]. To learn more about the Parts List screen click here
NOTE: A parts quantity on hand is a snapshot of the inventory levels at a specific time, and is not a dynamic representation of changes in real time. Technicians do not need to clock out and back in of the app to load their parts. The list of current parts within a technician's assigned Part Location(s) will sync upon Clock In at the beginning of the day. If they need to reload the parts list, they can press the ‘refresh’ icon in the top, right corner of the View List Parts screen & resync.
NOTE: If your business system supports bin locations your HQ will be automatically updated in Admin>Parts. TIP: Technicians can request for a restock of part(s) and/or view availability of a part from another location. Press [Restock] to submit a part restock request. Press the 'eye' icon to view availability of the part from other locations.
Technicians can utilize the filter options at the top of the parts list screen by selecting one or more of the filter options:
- Part Location
- Quantity on Hand: All, Greater than 0 or Equals 0
- Sort by: Part Number, Part Description or Bin
