Job console

The Job console provides detailed information about registered jobs. Use the console to track and manage jobs at your property, including jobs with work orders or escalations. The console automatically updates any time an action is performed on a job.

The default view displays all open jobs, unassigned jobs, parked job, jobs for which the assigned employee is not logged in, and jobs closed in the last 7 days. You can configure the console to suit your individual preferences to optimize usage. For more information, see Sorting and filtering the Job console.
