Jobs live at https://mybuildx.com/jobs (page title **My Jobs**). General Contractor and Subcontractor accounts have them. A job is work you won. Most jobs start when you press **Convert to Job** on a lead.

## What you can do

- Filter by **Status**: **All**, **In Progress**, **Scheduled**, **Completed**, **Unscheduled**.
- Filter by **Label**, or search with **Search jobs or address**.
- Read the tiles: **In Progress**, **Scheduled**, **Completed**, **Unscheduled**, and **Pipeline Value** (the sum of contract values).
- Open a job's **Field** page for its summary.
- Use the pages under **Jobs** in the sidebar: **Active Jobs**, **Map**, **Photo Tags**, **Labels**, **Snippets**, **Showcases**.

## Create a job

1. On [Leads](https://docs.buildx.pro/docs/dashboard/leads.md), move a lead to **Qualified**.
2. Press **Convert to Job**. The lead becomes **Won** and the job appears on My Jobs with the customer's details.

You can also ask **Ask BuildX** to create a job ("Create a job for a roof replacement at 12 Oak St, Austin TX"). The Jobs page itself has no "new job" form.

## Change a job's status or details

The Jobs page doesn't have edit buttons. Ask **Ask BuildX** to change a job's title, customer, trade, address or status (for example "Mark the Oak St job in progress"). It shows an approval card before it saves. See [Home](https://docs.buildx.pro/docs/dashboard/home.md).

## Map your job sites

Open **Map** (https://mybuildx.com/jobs/map, **Job map**). Jobs with a site address show as pins. Click a pin to open the job drawer with the address, labels, and latest site photo. Jobs without an address don't appear.

## Organize with labels

Labels organize jobs. Tags describe photos.

1. Open **Labels** (https://mybuildx.com/jobs/labels).
2. Type a name (for example Rush, Warranty, VIP), pick a color, and press **Create label**.
3. To put a label on a job, ask **Ask BuildX** ("Label the Oak St job Warranty"). There's no label picker on the job card yet.
4. On My Jobs, pick a label next to **Label** to see only those jobs. **Manage labels** goes back to the Labels page.

## Keep photo tags

**Photo Tags** (https://mybuildx.com/jobs/tags) keeps the tags used on job photos. Six default tags come with every account. Press **Add tag** to create one, or use **Rename**, **Merge** (moves photos to another tag and deletes this one), and **Delete**. Crew members see tags read-only.

## Save text you repeat

**Snippets** (page title **Saved text**, https://mybuildx.com/jobs/snippets) stores phrases your crew repeats, like gate codes and arrival notes. Enter a title and text, then press **Add snippet**. Use **Edit** or **Delete** to change one. Copy the text where you need it.

## Build a showcase

A showcase is a curated set of finished-work photos.

1. Open **Showcases** (https://mybuildx.com/jobs/showcases).
2. Under **New showcase**, enter a title and a one-line description, and pick a **Job**.
3. Click photos from that job to select them (they show **Picked**).
4. Press **Save draft**.
5. Press **Publish** on the draft. Published showcases get **View public** and **Unpublish**.

## Good to know

- Showcase links (`mybuildx.com/showcase/...`) currently open the MyBuildX sign-in page for anyone who isn't signed in, so customers without an account can't view them yet.
- The **Field** page shows the job summary. Its Logs, Punch Lists, Safety and Map tabs show "Coming soon" for most accounts.
- The **History** page for completed and archived jobs isn't turned on for accounts right now.
- BuildX doesn't schedule crews or check crew capacity. See [Scheduling and crews](https://docs.buildx.pro/docs/gcs/scheduling-crews.md).
