Assign a job to a technician.

Pick a technician in the Assign tech field when you create the job, or drag the job onto that technician's column on the Schedule board. You can change your mind later from the job itself.

Steps

1. Open Schedule, choose the Board view, and press New job.
2. Fill in the customer and the job details, then choose a name in the Assign tech field. If you do not know yet who will go, leave the field as it is.
3. Press Create job. The job lands on the board for the day you scheduled it.
4. To assign a job later, go back to the Board view. Every technician has a column, and jobs with nobody on them wait in the Unassigned column.
5. Drag the job card onto a technician's column. JobField saves it and says Reassigned, and the job keeps the time it already had.
6. You can also open the job, find Team, choose a name and press Save.

Good to know

The technician gets a notification saying a job was assigned to them, as long as they have notifications turned on.

The Unassigned column shows only while some job still has nobody on it.

Assigning and reassigning is for owners, admins and dispatchers. A technician sees the day but cannot move work around.

Dragging cards is a computer thing. On a phone the board shows one technician at a time and you swipe sideways between them, so change the technician under Team on the job instead.
