  1. Workflow Changing Automation

  2. Automation Trigger to Change Custom Fields

    I would really love to be able to change custom fields with automation.

    I want to be able to capture the date certain things happen and store them as a custom job field that can be used in reports. Capture the date a job first enters a status. Capture a date the job first gets a Material Order written. Capture a date the job gets an invoice paid in full.

    Sold Date is a custom field on my jobs that must manually be entered to be able to be seen in Job Reports. My team sometimes forget.

    I dream of…

  6. Ability to use different contact types in automations

    Ability to use different related contacts in templates for automation based on the contact type. I would like the ability to set up automation based on contact type (i.e. sub-contractor, adjuster, homeowner, supplier, etc). I would also like to be able to use contacts based on contact type within the merge fields for documents, emails, etc. Currently, the only one that can be automated is the primary contact.

  7. Get a prompt before automated email is sent

    We've shut off all automated emails to customers because it's never a one size fits all for us. So, we'd end up looking dumb backtracking and saying that email wasn't meant for you.

    If we could set up an automation where a prompt said "Ready to send XYZ, should Jobnimbus send?" You could click Yes or No.

    As a workaround, we've set up reminder tasks for ourselves to send certain emails at certain statuses so we can decide if it's appropriate for the customer or not.

  10. Assign To as a possible Action is Automations

    Would like to see the option to assign team members, ie production manager to a job at a specified stage or status. This would go in tandem with how email replies are associated with Assignees. I would like my production manager to automatically receive emails for a job when it enters Production.

  12. Maintain existing workflow on parent records when an automation with multiple status change actions on it gets triggered

    Improve automation action capabilities so that two or more status change actions that occur in different workflows can exist on the same automation, without them conflicting and some times changing the Contact Type or Job Type of the parent contact or job record to a different workflow.

  14. Automation option to allow a Job to be created when a customer is created

    Since we have enabled the "job option", it would nice to create a Job automatically when we create a customer. This would be done via an automation rule. Currently the option only allows creation of a Task.

  16. Work orders and automation

    Trying to automate work orders when completed to move the parent contact from a certain status to another status, the issue is that we may have multiple work orders for one job but only one work order for another, then when we move the worker order to completed it wont move the parent file to the new status because only one work order was created. Is there a way to base the status change regardless of how many work orders you create for a parent file?

  17. Automation to Create Job on Contact Status Change

    I would love to create an automation that when a contact is moved to a certain status it can trigger the automation to create a job. For example I have a status of sold in contacts and when I move the contact to that status it automatically creates a job for that contact.

  18. Add Email Addresses In Automations

    JobNimbus absolutely needs to be able to send email automation to "Additional Recipients". The current parameters trap you inside of JobNimbus NOT allowing to send email to a designated email address outside of users or contacts etc. This is a must if we are to alert our field techs without them being a user.

  19. Automate Status Change of Child Records (Change WO Status when Job status is changed)

    Our Sales Rep creates his WO's right after haveing a contract signed. The Production Manger authorizes them later in the workflow after a Job approval process. When the rep creates the WO's they start in a pending status. When the Manager later authorizes the Job it would be nice to have the status on all WO's change the status to the next WO status. (for example "authorized). This would allow us to create a board that starts tracking the WO at "authorized" and have all the WO's show up automatically. This is currently how we do it but the Manager…

  20. Automation for Subtasks

    It would make our process twice as fast if we could automate subtasks! Right now when a new job is created I have to go back into every task and create the subtasks. Kind of a pain but it's better than having 100 tasks. It is much easier for us to delegate and keep track when we can consolidate the tasks and have more subtasks because some of our tasks are more like big checklists of everything we have to check on for a meeting within a job.
