Job
Job schedules a collection — which customer, which vehicle, which driver, where and when. It is the unit of work the whole module revolves around: logs, waste records and invoices all attach to a job.
Where to find it

Field reference
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | What the job is, in a line. |
| Description | Fuller detail for the crew. |
| Customer | Who is being served, and who will be invoiced. |
| Vehicle | The vehicle assigned. Its capacity limits what can be collected. |
| Driver | Who is running it. |
| Location | Where the collection happens. |
| Scheduled Date / Scheduled Time | When it is booked for. |
| Estimated Duration | How long it should take — what makes a day's schedule realistic. |
| Number of Loads | How many trips the job needs. |
| Job Type | The category, from Job Types. |
| Priority | How urgent it is. |
| Status | Where the job stands. |
| Notes | Anything the crew needs to know. |
Match the vehicle to the number of loads, not just to the customer. A job booked for three loads on a vehicle that can only do two in a shift turns into an overrun that pushes every later job back.
Billing a job
Completed jobs become customer invoices. A job with invoices already raised against it is preserved rather than removed, so the billing trail stays intact even when the operational record is tidied.
