Abbreviate Auto-Filled Address like Google Maps does
Fewer characters is always better. Every single one of our contacts and jobs have an abbreviated address copying the ways of Google: N instead of North ; Ave instead of Avenue ; Cir instead of Circle ... Please continue this formatting in your automatic address filling or make it optional to turn on auto fill, leaving only the auto fill of the city based on the manually entered zip code.
This consistency is important for accurate and efficient search results.

Creating new jobs
The new way of adding jobs doesn't allow for the choosing of zip code and the city popping up anymore. I feel like that went backwards
When I select a contact, it already has a salesman selected for it. However, when the job gets created, it doesn't pull that salesman into the job. It has to be selected again. Again, I feel like that went backwards
Sometimes I have to email invoices to a project manager AND a main accounting email. I suggest having a multiple email option for a contact.

No longer previewing activity???????
Used to when you would go to a contact, you could see all activity displayed. You could preview and reply to texts straight from the contact page, read emails, and all of that. Since the new updates, none of that information will load. I can only see that there is a line for each of the activities, but absolutely no preview of information. I hate that it makes it so much harder to access information while on a phone call with customers or suppliers. I would have preferred the functionality over the aesthetic. I appreciate that you guys are "trying"…

Tag someone when editing contact
It would be more efficient to be able to tag someone when adding a note while editing the contact. Many times, when editing a contact, we have to add a note. But if we want to tag someone in that note, we have to remember to edit the note after adding it.

Contacts with the same name in the new Jobs Experience
The original JN process to add a contact allowed you to have multiple people with the same name as long as you modified the "display name" was unique.
When JN first started rolling out the NEW Jobs Experience and modified the process where entering contact info was the first step in creating a new job record, the system would simply add a number "1" automatically to the display name if it matched an existing contact record. Not ideal but you could leave it or modify it after the fact. We always added the town/city to the end of the display…

Custom Dropdown that lets you pick from contacts just like Assigned To and Sales Rep
We have more than five use cases for this feature (only the ones I think most contractors could benefit from are here):
Project Manager
Customer Service Manager
Quality Control Rep
CanvasserMake a feature where we can create custom fields that allow you to select contacts, users, and subcontractors. Maybe three different Custom Dropdown field types that isolate to each so picking isn't too cumbersome?
I hate having to populate the dropdown each time a head changes.
This would tie contact records together with more meaning than the general fields provide:
-Related Contact - How is it related?
-Subcontractor -…13 votes -
Make Job Layout Settings Global Across the Organization
On the new jobs experience dashboard, we would like widget layout changes (e.g., dashboard arrangement and panel visibility) to apply globally across their organization rather than being user-specific. This would ensure consistency in workflows and visual layouts for all team members.

Notes - Sub Notes
We use notes as a means for updates on the job. Instead of creating an entirely new note to acknowledge a note that I am tagged in (or anyone else on the team) that is populated above the previous note - having a sub note feature would be super useful and keep the notes section way more organized & clean

More than one email per contact
When a customer uses a different email than the one on their contact card, JN does not link that message to the contact. To fix this issue, allow us to add more than one email to a contact.

Contact information for builders/gc/buisnesses
When adding a new contact in the new experience, it asks you to type the contact's 'First Name/Company' to search for them, but if they're new and you need to add them as a new contact, you wouldn't put the Company Name up there, you need to go down and expand 'Other Info' tab and put the company name there. It's also very inconvenient that you can't change the contact display name while you're adding it. The only options you have are to display the first and last name of the contact, or create the contact and/or job(s) and then…

Related Contact types for Insurance companies, Adjusters, and Permitting Jurisdictions
In our workflows, we frequently need to associate the same contact with multiple jobs. Examples include insurance carriers, individual adjusters, and city or county permitting offices. While JobNimbus allows a contact to be linked to multiple jobs, all activity, documents, and correspondence tied to that contact currently appear across every associated job. This creates clutter in job activity feeds and makes it difficult to determine which communication belongs to which job.
The feature request is for a more relational or context aware contact to job relationship. Ideally, contacts could still exist as centralized records, but when linked to a job,…1 vote -

Custom Job Field Separators
Create sub categories or box separators so that may be roof details like shingle type . color, warranty,; is separate from insurance details such as policy number , claim number, carrier name , etc. Sure we can reorder then around, but it would be nice to group them together. One might suggest to take it a bit farther. I have read someone else suggestion to make certain groups or subcategories only available to certain users and applicable to their job responsibilities

Permit Tracking
Is there a plan to add a built in building permit tracking feature directly within jobs?
Permits are currently tracked using notes, tasks, or custom fields, which is inefficient and increases the risk of missed steps and delays.
Key features that would be valuable:
Dedicated permit section within each job
Standard statuses such as Draft, Applied, Pulled, Posted, Inspection Scheduled, and Complete
Permit number, municipality, key dates, and document uploads
Ability to assign responsibility
Inspection type tracking for jobs requiring multiple inspections
Job level and system wide permit status visibility
This would significantly improve compliance, organization, and day to day…

Add Assignee on Created Contacts from New Jobs Shell
When creating a contact on the New Jobs Shell from the right side menu bar when selecting "New Related Contact", it allows you to input information, but there is no field for the assignee or sales rep. When the contact is created by a limited access user, they cannot see the contact they have just created if the workflow is set for "Assignees" only. This does not occur for the legacy contact creation nor new contact creation from the navigation bar.
