Dispatch board
The whole team’s week on one board
Drag a survey or install onto an engineer’s day. They’re notified, their calendar updates, and the board shows who’s already full.
How it works
- 1
See the week
Every engineer down the side and every day across the top. Surveys are amber, installs are blue.
- 2
Drag a job onto a day
Jobs waiting to be booked sit under the board. Drop one onto an engineer’s day to book it in.
- 3
Spot who’s full
A day with more than eight hours booked turns red and shows the hours, before anyone gets overbooked.
The details
Engineers are told
The engineer gets a notification, and a connected calendar updates.

Frequently asked questions
Which plans include the dispatch board?
Every plan.
Does it plan routes as well?
Route planning is separate: it suggests the order to drive an engineer’s jobs in. Estimated as straight-line distance × 1.3 at 45 km/h. It isn’t traffic-aware and doesn’t give directions. Available on professional and up.
