✅ Step-by-Step: Clocking In and Out of Maintenance Jobs in SynkedUP


🔹 1. Start Your Day

  1. Open the SynkedUP App

    • You'll be taken to the Timesheets page.

  2. Tap the "Clock In" Button

    • Choose either the bottom or top-right orange button — both work the same.

  3. Select Your Crew

    • Example: You and Cody.

    • Confirm the crew and start time.

  4. Tap "Clock In"

    • You’re now clocked in under unbillable time (e.g., loading up the truck, trailer, etc.).


🔹 2. Start a Maintenance Job

  1. View Your To-Do List

    • Jobs are listed in the order your dispatcher/scheduler set.

  2. Tap the "Play" Button Next to the First Job

    • Example: Arthur Estimations’ House.

  3. Verify the Crew

    • Make sure the right team is selected.

  4. Tap "Start Timer"

    • The app begins tracking billable time for this job.

    • Your earlier unbillable time is moved down the list.


🔹 3. Add Notes or Materials (Optional)

  • Tap "Internal Notes" to record job observations (e.g., “Grass is wet”).

  • If you use any materials (e.g., fertilizer), record them here before finishing the job.


🔹 4. Complete the Job

  1. Tap "Stop Timer"

    • This ends the billable clock for the job.

  2. Set Job Status

    • For most maintenance (e.g., mowing), choose "Complete" to make the visit billable.

    • If not done, select "In Progress" or "Blocked" as needed.

  3. Tap "Save Time Entry"

    • You’re now back in unbillable time (e.g., driving to the next property).


🔹 5. Start the Next Job

  1. Tap the Next Job in the To-Do List

    • Example: Anthony Mohantrim’s Property.

  2. Start the Timer

    • Confirm crew, then tap "Start Timer".

  3. (Optional) Remove Unbillable Time Between Jobs

    • If you forgot to clock in right away, you can tap and delete the unbillable gap so time starts from the last job's clock-out.

  4. Repeat Steps for Notes, Materials, and Job Completion

    • Stop the timer → Mark complete → Save time entry.


🔹 6. End Your Day

  1. Stop Unbillable Time (if running)

    • Tap "Stop" on the unbillable timer.

  2. Tap “End of Day” and Submit Timesheets

    • Review your day: The app will show a breakdown of billable vs. unbillable time.

    • Tap "Submit Timesheets" and you're done.
