We are making two important changes to improve reporting accuracy on our platforms. First, we are introducing multi-unit sales functionality, allowing you to track sales for properties with multiple units in a single job. Second, we have improved our slab date system to prevent slab dates from being set for Not Proceeding jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Where applicable, the number of units should be updated in G.J. Software when a job is manually added to the Intranet. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The default unit for each job is 1 and all historical unit counts will be updated to reflect jobs that have been manually added to the Intranet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Slab dates will not be triggered for jobs when the contract value is less than or equal to $25,000. This change does not apply to DPP jobs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Who\u2019s Impacted <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
These exciting updates are specifically relevant to Franchisor and Master Franchise users<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why it Matters<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Multi-unit sales functionality simplifies the sales tracking process, reduces data entry errors, and provides more accurate reporting. By eliminating the need for manual job entry on the Intranet, you can save time and improve the accuracy of sales and slab reports. The improved slab date system ensures that slab dates are not incorrectly set for ineligible jobs or ones that are not proceeding, enhancing the overall accuracy of our platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additional Details <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Multi-Unit Job Tracking<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Jobs with multiple units such as a duplex or apartment are considered distinct sales and slabs. However, they are processed through a single job in G.J. Software to simplify the estimating, ordering, and scheduling process. Previously Franchisor or Master Franchise staff would create a new job on the Intranet to give credit to the Franchise for the additional sales and\/or slabs using a common naming convention such as \u201cau37-12345.1<\/strong>\u201d or \u201cnz65-54321a<\/strong> to denote that a second unit for that job existed. While this served it\u2019s purpose it resulted in inconsistencies between sales and slab metrics between our various reporting tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new field has been added to capture the number of units for each job to the Billing Tab of the Contracts Manager in G.J. Software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
