Search your jobs and expenses

Search finds a job you’re on or one of your own expenses as you type, so you don’t scroll through lists on site. It searches what’s saved on your phone, so it works with no signal too.

Who can do this

Anyone signed in to the field app. Search covers only the jobs you’re on and your own expenses. With Jobs & field off, it searches only your expenses.

1. Open Search — On iPhone, tap the search button in the tab bar. On Android, tap the Search tab.
2. Type what you’re looking for — In Search jobs and expenses, type part of a job’s name, customer, job number or site address, or an expense’s category, description or job. Matching ignores capitals and accents.
3. Pick a result — Results show as Jobs and Your expenses, with the matching words highlighted. Tap one to open the job or the expense.

Recent searches

Before you type, Search shows your Recent searches, up to 10, newest first. A search is added when you open one of its results. Tap a recent search to run it again. To remove them, press Edit on iPhone or Clear on Android.

Recent searches are kept only on this phone. They’re never sent to your server.

When nothing matches

You see “No results for “your search”” and “Search covers the jobs you’re on and your own expenses. Try a customer name, a street or an expense category.”

With no signal

Search uses the jobs and expenses saved on the phone, including expenses still waiting to send, which show Waiting. When you have a connection, opening Search refreshes what’s saved first.

Tip

Other people’s expenses, jobs you aren’t on, invoices and money figures never show in search.
