The General Tab of the Job is the entry point of the system and is where the basic information about the job is stored. You will create a new job from this page or your will find your existing job from this page.

It is from this page that you will create new jobs.

General Job Information is stored on the General Page. This information includes:

·The Job Reference Number and the Job Title  
·The Client Information for this Job  
·Notes about the customer  
·Account Information about the customer  
·Multi-Site Users: The site window determines the location responsible for the Job. The site which the user is currently logged will be chosen by default, however, the user may change the site when creating the Job. This means a user in London can create a job for which the Paris warehouse will be handling. The site information cannot be changed after any financial data (including equipment lists, crew, invoices, etc.) has been entered. If the system has been configured to add a suffix for a specific site (New York =NY) and a job is created while logged into that site, if the site is changed the suffix will not change automatically. You must be logged into that site for the suffix to appear for that site. This is done to keep track of jobs created by other locations.
