Today and Work

The two lists a technician lives in — what is on now, and everything on the handset.

Two views of the same list.

Today

What is on now: jobs in progress, and jobs due before tonight.

This is the screen to open at the start of a shift. If it is empty, you have nothing due today — which is different from having nothing at all.

Work

Everything on the handset, not just today’s.

On a bad week these are the same list. On a good one, Work is longer.

Reading a job row

Each row carries:

• The number and what the job is.
• The asset and where it is.
• The status, in your organisation’s own words.
• When it is due, or how long it has been running.
• A warning where the job is short of something.
• A sync chip where you have changed the job and the server has not caught up.

Both lists work offline

Neither screen fetches anything. They read the handset’s own database, so nothing here can fail for want of a network. What you saw at the gate is what you see in the plant room — the only difference is the status chips on rows you have touched since.

Getting more work

New work reaches the handset when it syncs. If you expect a job and cannot see it:

1. Check the Sync tab — the app may not have had signal since it was assigned.
2. Check it is actually assigned to you, not just raised.
