Reschedule or reassign a job
Move a job to a new time or a different technician, tell the customer, and handle several jobs or multi-day work.
- For
- Dispatcher, Admin, Office staff
- Where
- Web app
- Updated
On the Dispatch Board
- Open Dispatch.
- To change the time, drag the job along its lane: "rescheduled to ...".
- To change the technician, drag it to another lane: "moved to ...". Drag it back to Unassigned to unassign it.
- If the start time changed, choose Text, Email or Don't notify when Ormi asks Let the customer know?
From the job page
- Open the job and click Edit. Change Start and End, then save.
- To change who is on it, use Assigned Technicians: Add technician, or remove someone with Remove.
Several jobs at once
- On Jobs, tick the jobs, then click Assign in the selection bar.
- Choose Add (keep current technicians) or Replace (swap them out), pick the technician, and confirm.
There is no bulk date change, except Scheduling, Weather Delays, Apply Weather Delay for a day lost to weather.
Jobs that take more than one day
- Open the job and, in the Schedule card, click Add visit.
- Set the Day, Starts, Ends and Technician, then click Book visit.
- Each visit can be moved on its own and marked Mark done.
What if this fails?
- I can't move an En Route job back to Dispatched.
- The customer already got the On My Way text, so Ormi keeps the record. Reassign or reschedule it instead and let the customer know.
- The new technician doesn't see the job.
- Ask them to pull down to refresh on Jobs in the app. See A technician can't see a job.
