C&P ASAP User Guide : Editing, Deleting Jobs
Almost everything about a job ticket can be edited as needed.


Changes can be made to jobs at any point during its lifetime, as needed. The changes you make to jobs take affect when they are saved; so anyone who prints a job report will see your changes immediately.

All of the job's details can be changed in the Job Ticket windows. The different windows let you change different things, such as estimates or schedules. But most of the job's key information is in the Job Specifications window. Here you can change the job's specifications, dates, job type, and user fields as needed.

Only the client number and job number can't be changed in the Specification window. Once a job is saved, the client number and job number are permanently assigned to the job ticket and can not be edited.

To edit a job ticket

1 From the Job Tickets window, click on the edit button.

The Edit Job Ticket window opens. The job's specifications can be edited here. Only the client number,job number, and job type can't be changed.

2 Make your changes, then click Save.

To make a job always unbillable

A job ticket is billable to the client unless it is specifically marked as always unbillable. This option checks the unbillable checkbox on the job's tasks, which make all newly added costs unbillable. This option should be set when a job won't be billed (e.g., new business, account service, pro-bono, etc.).

1 From the Job Ticket window, click on the edit button.

2 Click the Always Unbillable checkbox, then click Save.

Changing the always unbillable option doesn't affect existing costs (i.e., if they were billable before, they'll stay billable; only new costs will be unbillable). For more flexibility, a job can be set as billable but have some always unbillable tasks. In this case, selected job tasks can be set as always unbillable -- while the job is not marked as always unbillable. A job can have any combination of billable and always unbillable tasks.

To delete a job ticket

A job can be deleted before any work has begun. But once a job has costs, hours, or billings it can't be deleted. This prevents jobs from mysteriously disappearing with unbilled costs. Deleting a job is permanent and irreversible. However, the deleted job's diary entries aren't affected, allowing anyone to see who deleted the job.

1 From the Job Ticket window, find the job you wish to delete.

2 Click the delete button.

Avoid using the deleted job's number over again. If a new job is opened using a deleted job's number, you'll see the deleted job's diary entries.
