MyTasks is a convenient app that allows the user to access tasks and work orders from a smart phone or other Android, Apple, or Windows device. This app allows the user to search, adjust the schedule, record time, and view or edit task notes.
This solution is ideal for a service technician, delivery staff, sales person, or other work order based activity on the road. The task system within EBMS is ideal to manage various work orders, service contracts, job management, and other tasks that include a schedule, notes, and time tracking.
The MyTime app is a alternative work order management app that allows parts management, billing, and managing a group of workers. Review MyTime Overview for more details on this MS Windows only app.
Scenario: An equipment repair company services equipment at the customer’s site. The service foreman uses MyTime to manage parts, manage service staff, and bill the work order at the end of the visit. MyTasks is used by the assistants to track time and record notes on the service task or work order. My tasks and MyTime access the same work order information from different devices. Both apps can be scheduled using the MyDispatch scheduling tool. A combination of various time and attendance tools including MyTasks gives the company the information to bill service contracts as well as T&M projects or service calls.
Scenario: A professional services company uses MyTasks to track the progress of various tasks including onsite and inhouse projects. MyTasks is a great app to record time, add notes, and review schedules while on the job. Internal and billing notes recorded by the technician are used for project evaluation, customer billing, and historical details. The ability to operate this app on the technician's smart phone gives the user convenient access from anywhere a mobile data connection is available. The time and attendance components of MyTasks gives this service company the ability to create schedules and manage time spent on various projects.
Scenario: An equipment rental company delivers large equipment to the customer’s job site and returns to pick up the rentals after the rental period is completed. The company uses Tasks in EBMS to schedule equipment delivery and pickup, record the delivery locations, instructions, and maintain schedule. The time and notes added by the driver using MyTasks on his smart phone keeps the dispatcher informed and maintains historical details each time equipment is moved. Mytasks on each driver’s smart phone communicates seamlessly with the MyDispatch app within the dispatcher’s office. Combine these apps with the rental, billing, and financial system of EBMS to create a complete ERP system.
