Set a Job Arrival Window

When scheduling a job, you have the ability to set an arrival window. This will be the time frame your customers can expect you to arrive for the job. You can choose to have this window set as the default for all jobs or set it on a per-job basis.

From your Homepage click the Schedule tab on your navigation bar to set the arrival window and create a job as you normally would, either by blocking off time in the schedule or by clicking the New button in the top right of your screen.
​

On the new job page, click the pencil icon to open the schedule editor which will allow you to update times and arrival window.

In this edit screen, you can now update the arrival window for the job by clicking the Arrival Window option in the top right of your screen. This can be done by editing existing jobs as well.
​

Choose the amount of time you would like to give. It can be none (this will give the customer an exact time) or as large as four hours. If you want this window to be applied to every scheduled job moving forward, hit the Set as default button in the bottom left corner. Then click the Done button in the bottom right corner to save this setting.

The window will begin at the time the job is entered into the calendar. So if the job is set for 12:00 pm and an arrival window of thirty minutes is selected, the arrival window will be from 12:00pm-12:30pm. 

The preview of the text notification that your customer will receive will adjust as the window is changed.
