Service Jobs Report
🛠️ Service Jobs Report
The Service Jobs Report in Ontraccr captures all time logged to service jobs—ad hoc work entries created by employees outside of formal project structures. This report is essential for companies that allow field workers to record jobs on the fly via mobile without needing a pre-existing project set up.
📍 Accessing the Report
- Navigate to Reports from the left sidebar.
- Select Reports again to open the standard reporting page.
- Click on Service Jobs.
🧭 What This Report Tracks
This report only includes entries logged using the "Allow Service Jobs" feature in the mobile app, where users:
- Toggle “This is a Service Job”
- Manually enter:
- Job Name
- Short Description or Address
- Log hours without associating with a formal project
The Service Jobs Report compiles all those entries into a centralized view.

- Pay Period
- Preset ranges (e.g., This Week, Last 30 Days)

🧰 Use Cases
- Field teams using Ontraccr Mobile to quickly log service calls without formal project setup
- Back office teams needing visibility into time logged on-the-fly
- Billing or job costing teams wanting to convert informal jobs into formal projects later
Example: A technician responds to an emergency call and uses service job logging to capture the time. This report helps surface those hours for later billing or project creation.
