Version 2.19.1
2.19.1 - 31.10.2024
The new updated list gives a better overview in Handyman
Handyman has traditionally had two lists of jobs: an order list and a task list.
The order list shows all orders assigned to me that were not planned with the Handyman Resource Planner. The second is a task list, where a task has been assigned to me in the Resource Planner.
Many customers have used both lists at the same time. When there is no need for planning, an order is created, and I am a participant on it for its entire lifetime. Other jobs require more detailed planning, with several visits via the Resource Planner.
The new list combines the order and "My tasks" lists, giving you a better overview of all your planned activities. We have also made registering hours, materials, and checklists quicker. The changes will benefit all mobile users, especially those who use Handyman Resource Planner.
Over the last 3-4 Handyman Office updates, we have introduced important improvements to Handyman Resource Planner to help users work more efficiently. In this release, we are introducing these improvements to mobile users.
For Handyman Resource Planner users, the list is now called "My Tasks" and combines the orders and planned tasks on the orders.
For those who do not use the Resource Planner, the list is still called "Orders." You will see an updated layout of the Orders list with some revised functionality.
Benefits
- Better organized information in the list
- Save time by making faster registrations directly from the list
- It is easy to view and change task status directly from the list
New list – important elements
The new list is rearranged to give a better overview of important information. The date and time for the task are shown on top, and a warning icon is shown if the task is overdue. Other important icons are displayed to the right. The task menu (... dots to the right on each element) has new functions for quicker registrations.
In previous lists, we could have just two buttons. The types of buttons visible depended on the license and settings. To make important functions more accessible, the buttons are replaced by a popup menu button with up to five visible items.
Task menu - quicker registrations
The task menu has been reorganized for quicker access to important functions.
- Quickly add hours, material and edit checklists
- Change task status at the top of the menu
