Team Board ¶
The Team Board is a visual collaboration view in the Jobs Dashboard that displays every technician as a vertical column with their active jobs as cards. Dispatchers and managers get an instant picture of technician workload, availability, and job progress — all on one screen.
Accessing the Team Board¶
- Open the Jobs Dashboard from the main navigation.
- Click the Team Board tab at the top of the page.
Management roles only
The Team Board tab is visible to Owner and Dispatcher roles. Technicians and other roles do not see this tab.
Board layout¶
The board scrolls horizontally so you can view as many technicians as your team has.
Column structure¶
Each technician gets their own column containing:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Avatar / Initials | Profile picture or initials badge |
| Name | Technician's display name |
| Availability badge | Color-coded status (see statuses below) |
| Job count | Number of active jobs currently assigned |
Job cards¶
Within each column, every assigned job appears as a card showing key details at a glance. Cards are stacked vertically under the technician header.
Filtering and search¶
Use the controls at the top of the board to narrow the view.
- Search bar — type a technician's name to filter columns in real time.
- Status filter chips — toggle between All, Available, Busy, and Off-Duty to show only matching technicians.
- Counters — the header displays the number of active technicians and total jobs across the board.
Tip
Combine the search bar with a status chip to quickly find a specific available technician during dispatch.
Technician availability statuses¶
The badge on each column header reflects the technician's current availability:
| Status | Color | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
Available | Green | Ready to receive new jobs |
Busy | Amber | Currently working on a job |
Wrap Up | Purple | Finishing current job |
Lunch | Indigo | On scheduled break |
Off-Duty | Gray | Shift has ended or not started |
Vacation | Gray | On approved leave |
Job card information¶
Each job card displays the following details:
| Field | Details |
|---|---|
| Job ID | Unique identifier for the job |
| Job name | Short description of the work |
| Customer | Customer name associated with the job |
| Priority | Color-coded badge — Urgent , High , Medium , Low |
| Status | Pending , Assigned , In-Progress , In-Transit , Arrived , On-Hold |
| SLA timer | Time remaining until the SLA deadline |
SLA timer color coding¶
The SLA timer on each card changes color to indicate urgency:
| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Green | On track — plenty of time remaining |
| Orange | Approaching deadline — action recommended |
| Red | Overdue — SLA has been breached |
| Paused | SLA timer is on hold (e.g., waiting on customer) |
For more on SLA configuration and escalation, see SLA Timers.
Actions¶
View technician profile¶
Click a technician's name in the column header to open the profile slideout. The slideout shows:
- Contact information and role
- Skills and certifications
- Performance metrics and job history
View job details¶
Click any job card to open the job details slideout. From there you can:
- View the full job record (customer, location, notes, images)
- Reassign the job to a different technician
- Update the job status or priority
Auto-refresh¶
The board refreshes automatically at regular intervals so you always see up-to-date assignments and statuses. A manual Refresh button is also available in the toolbar.
Best practices¶
Morning dispatch routine
Open the Team Board at the start of each day to review who is available, check overnight job updates, and balance workloads before the team heads out.
Prioritize by SLA color
Scan for red and orange SLA timers first — these jobs need immediate attention to avoid breaches.
Availability syncs with scheduling
Technician availability statuses reflect the scheduling system. When a technician's shift ends or a vacation is approved, their status updates automatically on the board.
Frequently asked questions¶
How often does the board refresh?
The Team Board auto-refreshes periodically to keep assignments and statuses current. You can also click the Refresh button in the toolbar for an immediate update.
Can I reassign jobs from the board?
Yes. Click the job card to open the details slideout, then use the Reassign action to move the job to a different technician.
Why don't I see the Team Board tab?
The Team Board is available to management roles only — Owner and Dispatcher. If you have a Technician or other role, the tab is not shown. Contact your company administrator to adjust your permissions.
What does the SLA timer show?
The timer displays the time remaining until the SLA deadline. It is color-coded green (on track), orange (approaching), or red (overdue). If the SLA is paused — for example, while waiting on the customer — the timer shows Paused instead of a countdown.
