Pin important Notes to top of activity
It would be nice to be able to flag or pin important notes that would stay at the top of the activity so important items do not get buried
84 votesGreat idea! Thank you for your suggestion.
The “Description” field on Contacts and Jobs is sometimes used as a “permanent note” that always stays at the top, but your idea will be great to have alongside that to make notes more dynamic and useful.

Quick Actions for Board Cards
When updating cards on the job boards, it would be immensely helpful to have a few quick actions available if you right-click on the card. Some ideas would be:
1. Edit Start/end date.
2. Move to - [choose status] - for some of our longer boards it would alleviate the scrolling to the appropriate list.
3. Mark Subcontractor/Crew as Complete - allow us to mark a sub as complete to help with progress tracking. This feature could put a line through the subcontractor circle, bonus points if we can add the date it was completed!
4. Make a note: It…37 votesWe completely agree and it’s something that we’ve been wanting to do since the beginning of boards.
It’ll be coming, we’ll keep you posted!

'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.

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 once59 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 by 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…
58 votesTasks is a great way to mitigate this situation, but we know that having a lightweight checklist would be a lot more convenient for something like this. It’s on our list!

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.

Activity should include Automation events, notifications
We have automated notifications that are emailed to our clients. The System created activities should include copies of those emails send out or at least a note that it was done

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.

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 -

Equipment Tracking
It would be great if I could track equipment on the job. Right now, I have a tough time keeping track of where things are.
