Editing additional areas on the Overview section
If your User Role Permissions allow it, at the top right of a Job is the Primary Representative's Name. You can Reassign the Job to another user within your Organization.
Once the Job has reached the Approved Milestone, this button will also allow you to Assign the Sales and A/R Owners on the job to users other than the Primary Representative.
Also at the top are two other features. The first is Job Priority. This allows you to mark a Job as Urgent, High, or Normal. You can use this choice to Filter Jobs or to denote to users that a certain Priority corresponds to the need for certain actions. For example, High may mean you are waiting for paperwork for the Job and Urgent could mean you are waiting on a customer decision before proceeding.
The second feature is the A/R display. This area will show you how much the Job is worth, and how much has been paid on that balance. The worth is calculated based on an Approved Financial Worksheet. When the Job is in Prospect, it will use the Primary Estimate on the Job to calculate a Potential Contract Amount.
To show a Payment has been received for this Job, go to the Payments section and enter in the amount you have received. This area will also show you how long the balance has been due.
