Overview

JobFile provides a way for suppliers & contractors to update their status of a task (accept, reject, started, completed etc.).

Workflow:

  • Replies from the resources are then automatically downloaded from JobFile (standard is every 30 minutes) when it runs and sent back to ClickHome.

    3. Test call up email - JobFile URL link for a resource:

    1. Log into ClickHome as a Supervisor

    On receiving the email, the resource will click on the link and then be redirected to the below page where they can accept, reject or propose an alternate date for the task depending on the settings applied by the builder.

(For more information about resource access to JobFile please see the JobFile Registered Supplier Guide)

    4. Setup JobFile options for resources:

    JobFile allows the 'Job Owners' (builders) to predetermine some of the options that their resources have when accepting tasks.

    a. Acceptance Permissions

    Log into JobFile and go to:

    Admin > Options > Relationships

    This page is separated into 3 types of user accounts;

    1. Anonymous = resources with no registered account in JobFile 
    2. Login = resources registered in JobFile 
    3. Own = Job Owners that are assigning themselves work (non ClickHome Users)

    Under the first 2 user types (anonymous and login) check the settings on the right hand side (Yes/No) for each of the following (these settings will be applied to all tasks that are scheduled to a resource from ClickHome. This means, in JobFile the resource will or will not be able to do the following depending on the settings applied):

    • The Resource can reject a task
    • The Resource can propose an alternate date for a task
    • The Resource can select a booked in date

    When you are finished click 'Save'.

     

    b. Reasons

    Recording a Job Not Ready, Proposing an Alternate Date & Rejecting a task are all actions that the resource will take when working on a task.

    As the Job Owner you can determine the reasons for the resource to choose from.

    To do this;

    1. Log into JobFile and go to; Admin > Options > Lists

    There are 3 lists:

        1. Job Not Ready Reasons

        2. Propose Alternate Date Reasons

        3. Reject Reasons

    There may be default reasons inserted however you can edit or remove these and add your own or you can leave them as they are.

    Click on 'Edit' then enter a new entry and click 'Save.

    You must create at least one (1) entry for each list otherwise that function will not work for the resource.

    5. Upload Logo for JobFile call ups:

    In the JobFile account details page you can upload your company logo to your account to ensure that it appears on the resources tasks (in top left hand corner as per above example).

    1. Go to;  Admin > Account > Details

    2. Click on the attach button (paperclip icon)

    3. In the popup window click Attach

    4. Using the windows browser navigate to your logo and then click Open.
