Modify budget hours with CO as those come up
Each job has original budgeted hours. In our case we deal with a lot of scope changes and change orders. Would love to see budgeted hours section expanded to add hours and notes as change orders are issued.
Other part is to add functionality for tasks and allowed hours for specific tasks which would/could tie in to Change Order as a task and budgeted hours for it.
Having budgeted hours as a whole when you have 15 or 50 tasks is not that helpful.

Hey Pawel, thanks for giving us your feedback!
I really like this and I think incorporating optional tasks to more effectively track change orders could be a really valuable resource for lots of companies.

Create a job wage for Prevailing Wage jobs or multiple rates for each employee to accommodate for Prevailing Wages
We do several Prevailing wage jobs each week and I have no way of changing the payroll reports to the correct wage automatically in your program. It would be nice to be able to either have a "Job Wage" because all my guys make the same wage for certain Prevailing Wage jobs. I know I'm not the only one who has to deal with Prevailing Wage so I'm sure it would help a lot of payroll people.

Allow the job budget to be comprised of sub-budgets or task budgets
That way you could have a project or job with a budget of 500 hours, but 100 of that is budgeted to planning, while another 100 is budgeting for electrical work, etc.
As the work gets done you can see the progress of all the items getting done as well as the total progress. Notifications would be great as well!

Assign Employees to a Job
It would be nice to be able to assign employees to certain jobs. Our company is setup in such a way that we have account managers and project managers. It would be beneficial to assign employees to a job so that an employee could see a list of the jobs they are part of. It could be a drop down field similar to what you have now with "Stage", "Customer", and "Active/Inactive/All Jobs".

Hey Dylan, thanks for sharing you feedback with us!
We actually do have a system to assign employees to a job. If you navigate to the settings for a job, you’ll see a section titled “Access Control.” Here you can limit which employees can view and clock into this job. You can also limit which tasks can be used for that job.
Here is a help article that goes over everything in a little more detail. Let me know if you need anything else!

Getting a report for a job and task
We do onsite servicing and I use the job list to record equipment we work on - my tasks show what we did
I need a report that I can get a certain task we performed on a job
Instead of having to run a job report and hunt for the task1 voteAdminJT Abbott

Hey Sue, I do have some good news, we are actually coming out with a report shortly called the “Quick Summary Report” that will allow you to pull information totals from Customers, Jobs, Employees, Tasks, or a combination of them all. So this will be able to do what you are looking for. The one catch, is that this report won’t include all of the shift details and notes like the Job Details report has.
So that may be useful, but the next step would be to improve the filtering for the current reports to include that second level of selection.

Job Labor Budget - Individual(Selected) employee emailed, % Budget notifications
Two separate ideas under the Jobs Labor Budget
-At our company, we, the administrators of Clockshark are office staff, are not the people who need to know when a job's budget hours progress to a certain point. Specific employees, project/operations managers, need to know how a job is progressing.If you could insert or select specific employee(s) to be emailed instead of the administrators when the budget hours remaining are hit, under the Labor Budget option.
If instead of being notified when a job only has a certain number of hours remaining, could there also be check boxes in Labor…

Hey Haley, thank you for sharing your idea, and allowing folks to have a forum to support and vote for it.
Just to get a little more information, would you like a checklist inside the job that the employees can use or customize and check off their duties? Or do you want them to actually check off the job/task, or possibly both solutions? Thanks for the information!

2) Integrate those budgeted hours with TASKS in Clockshark
3) Enable Manager and Foreman to see remaining hours available per task.1 voteAdminJT Abbott

Hey John! Thanks for sharing your feedback and idea with us.
This would be a great feature to offer a little more functionality with project management. We did just recently update our QBO integration to support overtime, vacation and sick time, and custom pay rates. But I can definitely see something like this in the future.
With limited work time and tons of ideas, we base everything on the support it receives. Let’s get some votes and we can go from there!

It would be great if there was a way for a map to show all active jobs for logistic planning
When scheduling jobs it would be nice to be able to look at a map with pins of active jobs. This would help with scheduling logistics for multiple locations.

Hey Lauren, thank you for sharing your idea, and allowing folks to have a forum to support and vote for it.
Just to gather some more feedback, what notes section on QuickBooks are you referring to? Our notes in ClockShark do currently transfer over to the notes section on the employee timesheets in QuickBooks.

Attach notes to a job
Currently, notes attach to a job through an employee clocked into that job. It would be great if the notes could be accessed by the job and not through the employee that made them originally. We do not give all employees full access but there are times an employee needs to know what has been done on a job.
35 votesHey everyone, thanks for the votes and the comments on this idea! Currently we have the ability for the employee to leave notes on the timesheet, as well as having an admin add notes/attachments to the job itself. These are available to be seen by the employee for more direction about that job.
We are exploring a more collaborative feature where the employee notes will be visible by the job that way you can easily view everything getting done as it pertains to each job!

Would be great if an employee could add a job while he is logged into the kiosk mode...at this point, it seems this option is only available if they are logged into the crew clock mode.

Hey Carre, thank you so much for providing this idea and letting others have an area to comment and vote!
I can definitely see how that would be useful. Just to get some more feedback, what kind of employees are using the kiosk at the moment? Are these employees out in the field with a crew or are they generally at a set location like a warehouse or a job site?

Choose more than 1 job for Travel/Estimating
The initial and last long distance travel hours would have more than 1 job assigned. Say our estimator travels 4-5 hours - at arrival he will then be going to 5 job locations all within 1/2hr of each other. Instead of having to break out the initial and end travel into the 5 jobs, just be able to add the jobs to those times in one group.

Hey again Lynn! This is an interesting dilemma that you are trying to solve. At the moment, the best solution is either to have him physically clock in and out to each job (or maybe each location could be a task under a job) or to simply manually add them after the fact. This is the only way to get the job to have time associated with it.
But as far as future options, what are you trying to accomplish? Are you trying to have each job have specific hours associated to it? Or do you just want to say that in these 30 minutes he did these 5 things. But no time associated to them? Almost like a checklist of what he accomplished. Once again I would love your feedback, thanks for everything!

Job description and attachments online for non Admin employees.
Need ability for non Admin employees to see job description and attachments while working with web version. So far only admin can see as well as add and modify all job notes. Will be great to have employees able to open Job attachments on PC so they have full view of large documents.
19 votesHey everyone, just wanted to let you know that this is something currently in the works.
Soon employees will be able to get a view only version of the jobs they have access to so they can see the attachments, description, address, etc.
We also just released the “edit jobs” manager permission recently which allows anyone with that permission to edit jobs they have access to as well as create new ones.

Add a 'detailed description' to individual task.
It would be nice for a field employee to see a task in a specific job, such as "House - Flashing", then be able to view a detailed description of that task that further explains what is involved. E.g., "Labour for both bending/prepping flashing & installing it onto the Main House."
