Job Statuses Explained

Job Statuses Explained


Every job in GlassFlow moves through a series of statuses from the moment it's created to when it's fully paid. Here's what each one means and how to move between them.



The 7 Statuses



Status

What it means

New Lead

Job just created — not yet scheduled

Scheduled

Date and time assigned; tech is confirmed

In Progress

Tech has started work on-site

Completed

Work is done; payment not yet collected

Paid

Payment received (card, check, or insurance)

Paid — Cash/Venmo

Payment received via cash or Venmo

Invoiced

Invoice sent to the insurance company; waiting on the check



How to Move a Job Forward



Each status has one button that shows the next allowed action:



  1. New Lead → click Schedule Job
  2. Scheduled → click Start Job
  3. In Progress → click Mark Complete
  4. Completed → click Mark Paid or Mark Paid — Cash/Venmo
  5. Paid or Paid — Cash/Venmo → click Mark Invoiced



You can't skip statuses — each transition must happen in order.



What Happens Automatically at Each Transition



  • → Scheduled: A confirmation SMS is sent to the customer (retail customers only, if SMS is enabled)
  • → In Progress: A reminder SMS is sent to the customer if the job is today
  • → Completed / Paid: Parts assigned to the job are automatically deducted from the technician's van inventory



Active vs. Finished Jobs



Active jobs are in: New Lead, Scheduled, or In Progress

Finished jobs are in: Completed, Paid, Paid — Cash/Venmo, or Invoiced



The Jobs list filters by these groups so you can focus on what needs attention.
