Some businesses have specific information that they want to see on their job box.

Things that are important to your business and that are over and above the provided system fields.

The job box is the coloured box that is displayed on your schedule view of the calendar.

You can create a custom field and have it displayed on this box.

I am going to show you how to create a custom field called "My custom field" and replace the text Paul - Maintenance Job from the view above.

Let's get into it!

Step one) Is to create the custom field.

Click on the Settings (cog) button > select Settings

Go to Work > Jobs > Custom Fields > click +Add Job Field

Enter in your information

Type in the Field name and select the Field type

The new field is created

And will appear on your job card

Step two is to add the custom field to the job box

To replace Bob/Tenant/Property manager/supervisor, need to name the Body Middle as My custom field, or whichever name you prefer.

Search for your custom field by clicking on the +

Make sure the old placeholder is deleted as you can have multiple placeholders in these sections unless you need to display multiple.

Remember to click on Save at the bottom of the page.

As we have selected the field type as Text Field. In order for it to show on the job box, it needs to have text in it. This is entered as you are working on the job, before or after the job.

You're all done. The job box has been updated with your specific information.
