CNB > Home A / DM / M

Personnel Manager opens automatically on the Home Page.

This page displays Job Sheets, Quotes and Invoices for certain business for a default pay week and the default pay week is Mon-Sun. The pay period can be altered in Global Settings Page under Pay Period Configuration. If View All Companies Details On (VACD) is selected (top right-hand corner of the screen) the Ops Home Page will display the Job Sheets for all businesses in a pay week. When View All Companies Details Off (VACD) is selected the Ops Home Page will only display Job Sheets for the selected Business. Job Sheets are displayed from the previous week onwards by default. A date range can be entered to Search Job Sheets.

Once a Job Sheet has been added, the Quote and the Invoice are automatically created. The database assigns a Job Number to each Job Sheet automatically. The corresponding Quote and Invoice share this same Job Number.

If a Job Sheet is created that spans more than one pay week, it will appear, with the same Job Number in each pay week in which it appears and it will also display a “+” next to it. Clients can enter bookings through their access which will also create Job Sheets. In this case, the Client Name on the left of the Job Sheet will appear yellow. Until a Job Sheet has been ‘Locked’ (all the shifts inside the Job Sheet have been ‘Locked’) the Job Sheet will appear Red and Underlined. Once all the shifts inside the Job Sheet have been ‘Locked’ it will appear, Black, signifying that all shifts have been completed, times have been ‘Signed off’ and the Invoice can now be sent.

Colour codes for Job Sheets/Invoices/Quotes: PM has different colour codes to indicate meanings, colours will appear when the mouse hovers on each Job sheet / Invoice / Quote Number.

Red: This means that the Invoice or Quote has NOT been sent to the client.

Green: Invoice or Quote has been emailed to clients. Green coloured job sheet number means some shifts are locked but there are still unlocked shifts in the job sheet.

▪Black: Black coloured Quote number means the Quote has been approved by the client. Black coloured Job Sheet number means all Shifts within the Job Sheet have been locked.

▪Colour codes for shading on Home Page: There are different shading colours of horizontal table row per Job Sheet to indicate meanings.
