Activating Jobs in Adaptive

How to manage, activate, and create jobs, sub-customers, and projects, and customize the Jobs page view.

Updated over a week ago

The Jobs page allows you to view, activate, and manage jobs, sub-customers, and projects. You can also create new jobs and customize the table view to show only the information you need.

1. Accessing the Jobs Page

Open the Jobs page from the main navigation.
The page includes two tabs:

  • Active β€” Jobs currently in use

  • Inactive β€” Jobs not yet activated

Note: Jobs synced from QuickBooks appear as inactive by default to allow for a clean slate when coding.

2. Activating Jobs

Bulk Activation

  • Select one or more inactive jobs

  • Click Activate to make them active all at once

Activating Jobs from Within a Bill

  • Go to Bills and open a specific bill to view the Bill Details

  • Scroll down to Line Items

  • In the Job dropdown menu, scroll to the bottom and select Missing Job?

  • In the Inactive Jobs window that appears, select the jobs you want to activate

  • Click Activate

  • Activated jobs will now appear in the Job dropdown under Line Items

3. Job and Project Syncing

  • Customers, sub-customers, and projects sync from QuickBooks

  • Customer and sub-customer data sync almost immediately

  • Projects may take several hours to appear

Note: Delays in project syncing are expected.

4. Creating New Jobs

  • Click Create job to add a new job manually

  • If integrated with QuickBooks, new jobs will sync automatically

5. Configuring the Jobs Table

  • Use Configure table to select which columns to display

  • Remove or edit columns to create a customized view of your jobs
