Overview: Full Access
Logging in
When you first open the Passport365 app, you will need to log in with the user name and password you have been assigned.
Once you 'Sign in' you will be asked to provide a four-digit pin code. This prevents anyone from accessing the app on your phone whilst negating the need to complete your full sign in details each time you open it (unless you log out).
View Job Schedule
Once you have saved your pin, you will be presented with the main job’s dashboard screen showing all allocated jobs (regardless of status) and any other appointments that affect your schedule.
They are displayed in date order with the most recent at the top.
From this screen you can select any of your allocated jobs to view further information.
Whilst you cannot amend details of the time, description or job address, you are able to change the job status and priority as well as update the custom fields and add notes.
Completing a Job
Fieldworkers can obtain a customer signature using the Passport365 app and mark a job status as completed.
They can also record details of any payments taken on site using the invoice function.
Using Passport365 for Sat Nav Route Guidance
The Passport365 app uses the site address for scheduled job along with current location details to provide a Sat Nav facility making travelling to site straight forward.
Adding New Quotes and Jobs
With the full version of the Passport365 app, field workers can add new jobs and new quotes whilst on the move.
Viewing Customer Contacts Database
Fieldworkers with full access can access the customer database to view contact information and details of any open jobs and quotes as well as a history of completed works.
