Client Jobs

If Jobs have been enabled for your practice, the Jobs tab shows the jobs that have been synchronised from Xero Practice Manager for that client. This is a handy tool for monitoring jobs by client across the team.

This article contains the following sections:

• Using the Client - Jobs Tab
• Displaying the Jobs Board
• Sync

Using the Client - Jobs Tab

When displaying, opening and working with Jobs in the Client Jobs tab, the list is used in the same way as in the Jobs List, except that only jobs for the selected client are included. Refer to the section Jobs and Time.

By default the tab displays the View with "Open" jobs. You can change by selecting a different View to display a view such as "All", "Overdue", "Planned".

If you select to view a Client Group at the top of the Clients List, the list shows the jobs for all clients in that Client group and the list includes the Client column.

Displaying the Jobs Board

You can display the Jobs for a client as a Jobs Board by clicking the Board button. This is used in the same way as the Board from the Jobs List (refer to Using the Jobs Board).

You can easily change the Job State by dragging a Job from one State to another directly on the Jobs Board. The change in Job State is automatically updated in Xero Practice Manager.

Sync

The synchronisation of Jobs from Xero Practice Manager with FYI runs automatically every 24 hours.

If the Job State, Manager or Partner is changed for any jobs in FYI, this is synchronised with Xero Practice Manager immediately.

Providing the option Maintain Jobs in FYI is set as "Off" in the Xero Practice Manager app, a manual sync can be performed if, for example, a job has been added or changed in Xero Practice Manager and needs to be available in FYI straight away. This can be done by any user from the Jobs list or from the Client - Jobs tab by clicking the Sync button and this will only sync the Jobs. Refer also to Running a Manual Sync with Xero Practice Manager and Additional Notes on Syncing.

When you have requested a Sync from the Jobs list, the following message displays and the Sync button is temporarily disabled. Re-display the Jobs list to check the Sync has finished.
