  1. abliltiy to attach photos to work orders

    On other systems I have been able to attach photos to work orders for our technicians. They don't always have access to the system and this is very useful. Is this something you can work on?

  2. Multiple Budget Templates

    Would like to have multiple budget templates available. This should be an easy thing to code and will allow us to have different people on different compensation models.

  4. Custom Estimate Fields

    You have custom work order fields and custom invoice fields but not custom estimate fields. It would be great to have them available on the estimate and then be able to have the option to carry that info to the work order and then to the invoice. There are things that you need to capture on an estimate and be able make them mandatory. It isn't practical to use the custom contact or custom job fields to enter the info because the info may not be known at the time of entering the contact and job info. In the gutter…

  5. More customizable Templates

    I would like to be able to build a static template for our site visits that would populate from JN. I would like to be able to format it similar to the estimate form (with the different text boxes), but I can't manipulate all those areas and when I try to build a 'Document Template, there is no way to create those text boxes like the ones in the estimate template. it's frustrating because it's a simple word feature under the Developer tab, but I have to pay some other app to be able to do it here in JN.…

  6. the ability to copy existing saved estimate and work order templates.

    Creating a new template is pretty easy. That said, we have created some fairly complex templates and would like to build new templates off those that have been saved rather than starting from scratch. Basically, we need a 'save as' option when we edit an existing saved template.

  7. Quicker Estimates Tax Selecting

    An easier or quicker way to enter/select the tax city/amount? On a large quote, you have to click the drop down, then scroll down and select the city. possibly allow it to automatically populate with the same as all others and if you don't want a tax amount, allow just a section option within each estimate. Just possible suggestions.

    Which templates are you wanting to add a page break to?

    On certain forms, like an estimate, it seems like the page breaks would need to be conditional based on the number of line items, which would be quite tricky.

    Thanks,
    Aaron

  10. ability to attach pdf to work order

    Would like to be able to attach pdf's to Work Orders (currently can only attach photos). I have to either retype the entire scope into the work order or follow up every Work Order with an email attaching the scope. Sad face for the double work.

  11. Easier way to add line items between other line items

    Have you tried dragging and dropping a new item near the top of the page on a large 30 line or more estimate? It's tedious, and amazingly time consuming, especially since the browser doesn't auto scroll up and follow the dragged item with the cursor. When moving an item above the fold you have to drag it, then drop it, then scroll up, then drag it then drop it, then scroll up. It's like carrying a 100 lb gorilla that is too heavy to carry. So you have to keep setting him down take a breather then carry him again…

    Sorry you’ve had difficulties with this! We already have ideas formulating for improving this experience. We’ll do what we can to release those ideas when they’re ready!

  12. Totals for Labor & Material Cost shown when editing

    The new labor and material split integration is great. However, not showing the total labor and total material at the bottom of the estimate (for us, not the customer) makes it very difficult to find what the totals are. We would have to add up each line item (sometimes 40 line items) to find the total labor cost and total material cost for each estimate. This makes tracking efficiency of estimates very hard when comparing estimate to actual.

  13. Deposit Required Line for Estimates

    Is there a way to add a Deposit Value on quotes.

    So the sums total would look like this.

    Quote Price $10,000.00
    TAX $500.00
    Sub Total $10,500.00
    Deposit Required $5,000.00
    Balance Due on Completion $5,500.00

    There isn’t a way to require a deposit at this time on the estimate, but you can add it as a line item and that will help in the meantime until we have more native support of this feature.

    We’ll keep you posted!

  14. A commission sheet that i can print off for salesman

    I really wish there was a section where I could print off a commission sheet for salesman. Right now I am building one in the budget form for them and then printing it. There is not a print button in this section and it makes it very difficult. We would also like the option of net profit.

  16. More control of editing estimate templates

    I am trying to edit an estimate template and would like to edit the name of it to reflect what I am using it for but can only edit items. Also, would be nice to be able to duplicate a template as I can use various template versions of exterior door install, include paint/stain, install trim or not, etc etc

  18. Decimal Point Control - More or less decimal points in Quantity

    Some of our billing is progressive on the terms of 3 payments broken into 1/3, 1/3, then the balance. If I put .33333333 (since JN doesn't automatically convert the fraction 1/3 to a decimal) in the quantity column and the price of $16500, JN returns a value of $5445.00 which is due to the fact JN takes my .33333333 and shortens it to .33.
    $16500 x .33 = $5445

    $16500 x .333333333 = $5500

    $5445 is $55 short of the $5500 I should be charging on our first bill.

    Of course the workaround in the meantime is to enter "1/3…

  19. Warning When Attempting to Edit, Attach to Contacts/Jobs that are Archived

    Have a pop up on Paid and Closed clients when someone attempts to add an attachment?
    We are running into an issue with invoices added to the job after it is closed - which we can adjust - but the person needs to be informed it is Paid and Closed so they can contact the office.

    The pop-up could say, "Paid and Closed Client. Do you wish to proceed?"

  20. Ability to attach EagleViews or Scope Reports to Work Orders

    I see the awesome new feature that allows us to attach photos to work orders or material orders.

    This would be great if it could extend to other documents in attachments. For instance; if we could attach the Eagle View along with the Roof Labor Order, it would be more efficient on our end!

    I have seen that this idea has been "completed" but it only allows attachment of photos onto labor/material orders for me.....Does our version of Nimbus not support the new function?
