⚡ Jobs & Scheduling
Update dozens of jobs in one go, not one by one
When a van breaks down, an engineer calls in sick or the weather kills a day of outdoor work, you need to move a whole day of jobs fast. Gaffer's bulk job actions let you reschedule, reassign, retag, change status and message customers across many jobs at once — so you fix the backlog in seconds instead of clicking through every job.

How bulk job actions works in Gaffer
Bulk reschedule
Push a whole day's work to tomorrow, or shift every rained-off job to next week, without opening a single job individually.
Reassign engineers
Move every job off a sick or broken-down engineer onto another team member in one action, keeping the day running.
Update status in bulk
Mark a batch of finished jobs complete, set them to invoiced, or move a group to on-hold — all at once.
Tag and organise
Add or remove tags across many jobs to group warranty calls, recurring contracts or a specific site without manual edits.
Message customers together
Send the same "we've had to reschedule" SMS or email to every affected customer in one go, instead of typing each one out.

Common questions about bulk job actions
How many jobs can I update at once?
Select as many jobs as you need — filter the list, tick the ones you want or select the whole filtered set, then apply one action across all of them at once. There is no per-action limit baked in for everyday workloads.
Can I do bulk actions from the mobile app?
Yes. Bulk actions work in the offline-first Android app (iOS coming soon) as well as the web. If you bulk-update jobs with no signal, the changes queue and sync automatically when you are back online.
What if I select the wrong jobs?
Gaffer shows you exactly how many jobs are selected and what will change before you confirm, so you can review the set first. Every bulk change is recorded in the activity log against each job for a clear audit trail.
Is bulk job actions included in the price or an add-on?
