Plan Routes with DreamzCMMS Mobile App
The Mobile Route Management feature in the DreamzCMMS mobile application allows technicians to create and manage routes directly from their phones. Users can set a route name, define start and end locations, and attach one or multiple jobs.
Overview
Routes can be started from the route list, and each job follows a clear status flow: Open (Red), In Progress (Yellow), and Completed (Green). Technicians can add notes, capture signatures, attach files, and select completion codes before closing jobs. Once all jobs are completed, the route can be closed. This feature ensures structured route execution, real-time status tracking, and complete job documentation in the field.

Tips for Using Route Management on Mobile
- Always set a clear Route Name and define accurate Start and End Locations when creating a route to ensure smooth navigation throughout the day.
- Add all required jobs to the route before tapping Create to avoid needing to edit the route later, which can cause delays in the field.
- Use the job status colours — Red (Open), Yellow (In Progress), and Green (Completed) — to quickly track your progress across all jobs in the route at a glance.
- Always capture a signature, attach relevant files, and select the correct Completion Code before closing a job to ensure accurate documentation for each service visit.
- Once all jobs are completed, remember to tap the Stop button on the Route List to officially close the route and update its status to Completed.
