Understanding Job Group

What is Job Group?

A Job Group is a way to organise multiple Job Types (which stem from core Job Classes), under a single grouping. This allows for more efficient management and visibility of jobs within the warehouse.

Job Groups are commonly structured by:

Companies/Clients (in a 3PL operation).
Teams or Zones (in large, multi-zone, or multi-warehouse operations).

This feature helps streamline job management by providing a consolidated view of tasks related to specific operational areas or customer accounts.
