'Records Per Page' Setting in Contacts/Jobs List View
When viewing the list of jobs on the jobs database, it only displays 10 at a time. I see there is a place to customize the "list" however it doesn't give me the option to choose how many are displayed. I'd like to have the option on here to adjust the number of jobs displayed just like we can in reports.

Multi-Select Dropdown Option Field Type
I love the new "Option" Field in JN, however, I would like to see another field or an option when creating this field to allow users to select as many as they want from the dropdown.
My current work around is to create two or more separate Option fields. It is a little overwhelming though how long the "Edit Job" or "Edit Contact" screen appears when you have so many fields added to it, especially when it could be condensed by allowing this suggestion of a "Check all that apply" type field to be added.

Activity Default to "All" instead of "User Created"
We would prefer if the activity for a job populated to "All" instead of "User Created" (or make a setting to change in back end) because we have to change it every time to get "all" the information for a job; thus, defaulting to show you/us everything relevant, instead of only the user created items.

Companies (parents to Contacts)
• Allows Contacts to inherit attributes from Companies
• Several Contacts under one company
• Associate a Company with a Job
• Communicate with all Contacts under Company at once60 votesThis definitely seems like something we would do as part of “Company” support where if only a Company name is added, then it would change to a Company icon rather than a Contact icon.

Custom Fields based on Workflow Type (Contact, Job, WO)
Custom fields should be linked to the contact type (the same should apply to job type, and WO Templates as well). This way we can have custom fields based on the contact type we are using. Instead of fields that aren't applicable to the contact type.

Checklists
Also include option to make required before changing status.
We have a fairly extensive workflow list (over 40 items) for one of our job types. I have struggled whether to build the list "past tense or future tense" with steps that "still need to be done" or "have been done" ex: Need to Order Permit vs. Permit ordered. The issue is if a job has a workflow status that has been completed (Permit ordered) its not really displaying what i need to do next. Also a problem is if we do steps out of turn which often happens then we…

Restrict Moving Job out of Certain Statuses (Protected Statuses)
- Is there a way to restrict a team member from pulling a job out of a status with in the workflow. For example if our simple work flow is lead – contract – permit – production – invoicing. Can we make it so only one person or Access profile can pull job out of the permit status regardless of where they place it (forward / backward / skip ahead). We want to make sure things aren’t being forced ahead until a specific task is completed.

Way to Prevent Adding Items to Contacts when Jobs are Enabled
We use jobs and have all records contained within jobs. It would be great if, when jobs are activated, there would be a pop-up saying "Are you sure you want to record this estimate/invoice etc. under the Contact?" or some other fail-safe as a visual reminder for our users. Alternatively, being able to move a recorded estimate/invoice from the Contact level to the Job level would also suffice.

Central Tag Editor
A way is needed to edit and delete tags that are created so when they are no longer in use or duplicated for some reason we can get rid of unnecessary ones and change spelling or punctuation on existing ones.

Have a visual indicator to show when a job file hasn't been updated recently.
Some flag (visible in the Job List) to indicate a job that hasn't been updated in several days.
I.E. - A green dot to show an updated job, a yellow if it hasn't been updated (whether journal note, task, etc) in a couple days, and a red flag if the job has gone several days without attention.

Import Contacts from iPhone, vCard, Contacts apps
Self explanatory. Going through cdv?
14 votesUpdate: You can almost always export your contacts from contact apps, even Mac contacts syncing with iPhone, etc into a CSV which you can then import into JobNimbus.
We will continue to move towards these other contact import options going forward.

We’re planning to add them new fangled contact import integrations (Apple/iCloud, Google, etc.) in the future.I’ll let you know as we get closer, but we don’t have a date to announce at this time.

Create a map that would display all customers and jobs, which would be differentiated by each sales rep
We distribute leads based on where the sales reps have been working.
It would be great to have a map where we can put in an address (the new lead) and it will show the location among pinpoints that represent all "contacts" and "jobs"- which would vary in color based on the sales rep (or instead of different colors, click on or drag mouse over pins to see who the sales rep is for the surrounding pins)149 votes -
Other Email, Phone, and Address Fields (e.g. billing) for Contacts
Add more fields for additional phone, email, and physical addresses for contacts.
I would like to have the ability to enter contacts home as well as their business addresses and emails. It could be a second contact address rather than marked as as a home address, This would mean for employees for instance you can write to them at their home address or have a second email address for a contact. This save having to set up two contacts for the same person and the confusion this causes.

Phone Number Field in Jobs
When creating a jobs I would like a area to enter the persons phone number so it can appear on the top of the page when I am looking at the job. I don't want to click on contact to pull up a number.
172 votesGood news! We are planning to improve this functionality in an upcoming release. Phone numbers (and other contact information) from the related Contacts will be displayed prominently on the Job view screen. This will mean you no longer have to click into the Contact from the Job to find the phone number or email address.
We expect this update to release in the next 30 days.
