To view, organise & run basic reports by different job types or characteristics, you can use Job Categories. You can create custom Job Categories in the Online Dashboard, and assign a Job Category in the job card (next to ‘Job Status’).

Go to Account > Settings > Job Categories to edit existing categories, or create new ones:
