Booking files and activity

Add photos and documents to a booking, and keep notes, calls and tasks on its activity trail. Both follow the booking through to the quote and job.

Every saved booking has a Files tab and an Activity tab. What you add here stays with the work: when you convert the booking, the quote and the job share the same files and the same activity trail.

Adding files and activity needs Bookings: Edit.

Add files

  1. Open the Files tab

    Open the booking and select Files.

  2. Upload

    Select Upload and choose one or more files, or drag them onto the panel.

You'll see File uploaded, or how many files were uploaded.

For each file you can:

  • open a preview;
  • switch between Internal only and Shared with the client;
  • select Download;
  • select Delete. Because files are shared with the quote and job, deleting a file removes it from all of them. You're asked to confirm.

Use the activity trail

The Activity tab is a running record of the work: notes from site, calls with the customer, and tasks for the team. Entries added later, at the quote and job stages, appear here too, marked with their stage.

Add an entry

  1. Choose the kind

    Choose Note, Call or Task.

  2. Write it

    Type the entry. Type @ to mention a colleague; they're notified.

  3. Choose who sees it

    Entries start as Internal only. Switch to Visible to client if the customer should see it.

  4. For a task, assign it

    Choose who it's for under Assign this task, and set a due date.

  5. Post

    Select Post. You'll see Posted to the trail.

Work with entries
