The term "Job" in SingleOps is used to describe the entire collection of information and associated work to be performed for a Client. The term "Visit" is used to describe a single stop at a specific location during which work will be performed. A Job could have just one Visit or many depending on the scope of the Job. The major difference between the two is that Visits are what a SingleOps User schedules on the Calendar. A Job will not be scheduled but the Visit or Visits for that Job will be.
How many Visits does a Job have?
This will depend on the scope of work to be performed and whether the Job is a One-Off or Recurring. For instance, a Job which includes a single tree removal would typically be a One-Off Job and will likely only have one Visit. It will likely only be necessary to go to the Client's address one time. A Job which includes both the tree removal and a stump grind may require two Visits if the stump grind service needs to be performed on a different day.
A Recurring Job will always have multiple Visits associated with it. This is common for plant healthcare treatments as well as any lawn maintenance or grass cutting Jobs. A Job created for one of these scenarios could last months with dozens of Visits.
