Job statuses in Notifi represent each stage of a job’s lifecycle—from scheduling to completion. Updating statuses helps your team stay aligned and track real-time progress across field operations.

Job Status Types

  1. Open
    The job is created and scheduled but not yet started. This is the default status when a new job is made.

  2. On Hold
    The job is temporarily paused. This status is useful for delays due to customer requests, weather, or missing parts.

  3. In Progress
    The technician is currently performing the work. This helps dispatchers and admins monitor active field jobs.

  4. Completed
    The job has been finished. Once marked as completed, it becomes ready for invoicing or payment collection.

  5. Cancelled
    The job has been called off. Cancelled jobs remain in records for reference but are excluded from active schedules and analytics.

Workflow Overview

  • Jobs typically move through this sequence:
    Open → In Progress → Completed → Invoiced

  • If interrupted, jobs can switch to On Hold or Cancelled at any point.

  • For recurring jobs, each visit follows the same workflow automatically.

Use Case

Maintaining accurate job statuses ensures visibility for both office and field teams. It improves dispatch coordination, reporting accuracy, and customer communication.
