Search for a job in the field

Use field job search to find open, overdue, assigned, or completed jobs without leaving My Work.

Search for a job in the field

When to use this

Use this when the job you need is not easy to find in your current list, or when you need to look up other open work in the field.

What you need first

  • You are signed in and can open My Work.
  • You know at least part of the job number, title, address, client, contact, project, site, or asset name.

Steps

1. Open My Work and go to the Search tab. 2. Type at least 2 characters in the search box. 3. Add filters if needed:

4. Review the result groups:

5. Open Details on the job you want, or use Add to my day when that action is available.

  • nearby only
  • team status
  • date range
  • priority
  • subtask state or type
  • stage
  • company
  • active matches
  • already on your day
  • overdue carry-over
  • assigned elsewhere
  • completed matches

What happens next

  • Search keeps active work separate from completed work so live jobs are easier to scan.
  • Jobs already on your day are shown separately so you do not add the same work twice.
  • Jobs assigned to another team can show Assign to me instead of a straight add action.

If it goes wrong

  • If nothing happens after one character, keep typing until the search text is at least 2 characters long.
  • If no jobs match, broaden the text or remove some filters.
  • If a job is shown under another team, continue with [Add a job to my day when allowed](./add-a-job-to-my-day-when-allowed.md) so the reassignment step is handled properly.
