The Build tab
Plan and track the work to get a landscape project installed, with tasks organised on a board by status.
Labs Preview
Build is currently a Labs Preview in both Free and Plus. Its task-board workflow is still evolving.
The Build tab is the work itself — everything that has to happen to get the project installed.
Tasks on a board
Work is broken into tasks, laid out on a board in columns by status. Moving a task from one column to the next is how progress gets recorded.
Click a task to open it. From there you can change its status, add detail, and discuss it — see Comments and activity.
Organising the board
You can change how the board is grouped so it answers the question you're actually asking — what stage is everything at, or who's doing what.
Task statuses
Like job statuses, task statuses come pre-set and can be renamed to match how your crews talk about work. See Job statuses for how the same idea works at the job level.
Tips
- Break work down to the level you'd actually assign it. "Install irrigation" is a task; "do the garden" isn't
- The board is a planning tool as much as a tracking one — laying the work out often surfaces the thing everyone forgot to order
The Estimate tab
Preview the future home for a job's estimates, proposals, change orders, invoices, deposit requests, and payment records.
Job details
The job details panel holds the facts about a landscape project — property, client, status, and dates — in one place alongside whichever tab you're working in.
