The standard workflow of a job

Job and workflow

Just like a move, a case file in Bas goes through a number of fixed steps. From sales, via planning and execution, to storage and invoicing.

In this standard workflow, the work is made easy for you, because the most logical and most common option is already prepared for you.

Two examples:

  • If you've created a case file and scheduled the survey, the next step is carrying out the survey. You'll see that this option is the first option in the detail screen on the right-hand side. See the screenshot above.

  • Once you've carried out the survey, the next step is sending the quote. You'll therefore find this option in the detail screen on the right-hand side.

This way, every step in the move is conveniently prepared for you.


A brief overview of all phases

The main phases in the workflow are: sales, planning, execution and completion. In each phase there are subphases. Within sales, for example, you have 'first contact', when you've created a case file without having done a survey. Another example is 'quote sent'. In each subphase, you get the logical next option on the right-hand side of the detail screen.

Sales

A job starts in the quote phase. It may begin with a lead request via your connected website, through a connected lead generation website, or by you creating a job based on initial customer contact.

All phases within sales:

  • First contact

  • Quote survey

  • Quote calculated

  • Quote created

  • Quote sent

  • Quote declined

  • Negotiation

  • Customer accepted

  • Deposit sent

  • Deposit received

  • Deposit skipped

First contact

For a new case file in the sales phase and the subphase 'first contact you get the following options:

  • schedule survey
    you schedule the survey and the surveyor

  • start survey
    with this, you carry out the survey straight away

  • send quote
    with this, you create a quote and fill in the work yourself

  • skip quote
    you skip the quote phase; the job is then immediately commissioned, so you can start the planning

  • cancel job
    you cancel the entire job, which removes it from your overview

Planning

After the customer has accepted the quote, the job enters the planning phase. The 'schedule move' button then automatically becomes available to you.

When you use this button, you're automatically taken to the planning screen. On the planning screen, you drag the employees with the right skills and the required vehicles onto the appointment.

You'll find all phases in the filter for jobs. All phases and subphases are shown here. For example, if you want to see which case files have quotes that can be sent, choose the phase 'quote created'. You can then send the quote per case file.
