Job Number

Updated August 24, 2023

The Job Number is a reference for an Estimate or an Order. Although this field is referred to as a “number”, the field is in reality a text data type. Therefore, the Job Number may be numeric, alphabetic or alphanumeric.  

 

For an Estimate, this field will typically be blank, unless the Estimate was created from an existing Order.

 

 

When saving an order, the user may enter a Job Number, manually, or the system will automatically assign a unique number (if the user has not entered anything in the Job Number field).  

 

The integer number that will be assigned will be based on the Starting Number previously entered in System Settings. The system will not automatically increment alphabetical or alphanumeric references.
