Map of Devices
The Map button lets you view the location of devices on the job site. Open the map, tap on each pin to view the device details.
You can move a pin on the map, and the device coordinates will update automatically.
Devices appear on the map only if they have valid coordinates. Coordinates are auto-filled when scanning a device or adding it via the map.
Paperwork Templates
With the Devices feature active you’ll have the option to show device details on your invoices and work orders. The following paperwork sections become available:
✓ Device Inspection Summary
✓ Device Application Summary
✓ Inspection Detail
✓ Products Applied
You can also choose to hide device logs for a specific job series. Simply turn on the Hide devices on paperwork toggle. Once enabled, devices will no longer appear on paperwork for the current job or any future recurring jobs in that same job series.
This is especially useful for locations with multiple services. Devices typically remain at the same location regardless of the service, so the same device is shown across all service types by default.
However, if a specific service does not require devices to be displayed, you can use this option to hide them.
Example: A location has two services—Termite Control and Mosquito Control. Termite Control uses devices, while Mosquito Control does not. With this update, you can hide devices for the Mosquito Control job series, and invoices for mosquito jobs will no longer display devices.
Note: This setting applies only to the selected job series. If you want to hide device logs for other services or job series, you must enable the toggle separately for each one.
📢 Completely custom-built work orders and invoices are also an option with GorillaDesk. We can bring in your paperwork or make your ideas come to life.
