We've added a new feature in the Job Site form which allows you to Export and Import Job Sites. This works similarly to the Inventory and Quote items import/export. Existing customers can export a Job Sites file, modify and add new Job Sites and then re-import the file. New customers will be able to bring in existing Job Sites which are not currently in ServiceBox. 

Note: Having a Customer's information is required before Job Sites can be Exported or Imported, as Job Sites are linked to Customers. 


After you Login to your ServiceBox site, in the left-hand side menu click on “Job Sites.” Underneath the title Job Sites you should see two buttons: "EXPORT" and "IMPORT". 


 

 

Exporting the file from ServiceBox:

 

To Export the file, click on the Export button. 

 


The system will generate an Excel file for you titled "ServiceBox Jobsites workbook"(If in Protected View click on “Enable Editing”). 


 


You will see similar data rows in the excel file as in your Job Sites form within ServiceBox.
