The JobBoard is much more than a job list - it's a fully customizable production scheduler that gives your team real-time visibility into every job moving through your business.
Whether you produce in-house, outsource production, or manage a combination of both, the JobBoard can be configured to reflect your unique production workflow.
Rather than adapting your processes to suit software, you can build the JobBoard around the way your business already operates.
Build Your Workflow
Every production team has a different way of working.
Some businesses simply track jobs through a handful of production stages, while others manage multiple decoration methods, machines, departments, and team members simultaneously.
The JobBoard allows you to build a workflow that matches your operation by creating custom columns, statuses, dates, text fields, and people assignments.
For example, you might choose to track:
Overall Production Status
Artwork Status
Purchasing Status
Goods Received
Machine Allocation
Production Method
Quality Control
Dispatch Status
This gives your team a complete view of every stage of production without needing multiple spreadsheets or whiteboards.
Organize Production Your Way
Once your workflow has been created, you can organize the JobBoard to display exactly the information you need.
Many businesses create filtered views for different departments or production stages, allowing each team member to focus only on the work that's relevant to them.
Examples include:
Jobs currently in production
Artwork awaiting approval
Goods waiting to be received
Embroidery jobs
Screen printing jobs
DTF production
Jobs due today
Urgent jobs
Saved views make it easy to move between departments without rebuilding filters each time.
Assign Responsibility
Every job can be assigned to the appropriate person or department throughout production.
This allows your team to quickly see:
Who is responsible for each job
What they're currently working on
What work is coming next
Where potential bottlenecks are developing
As responsibilities change throughout production, assignments can be updated to keep everyone aligned.
Schedule by Machine or Production Area
Many businesses also use the JobBoard to schedule work across different machines or production areas.
For example, you may create views for:
Embroidery machines
Screen printing presses
DTF printers
Heat press stations
Finishing and packing
This gives production managers a live overview of machine workloads and helps balance work across the factory floor.
Give Every Team Member Visibility
Because the JobBoard updates in real time, everyone works from the same information.
Many businesses display the JobBoard on a TV or large monitor within the production area, giving the entire team instant visibility into:
What is currently being produced
What is coming up next
Jobs requiring attention
Priority work
Completed jobs
Some businesses also provide tablets or iPads to production staff so they can update job statuses as work progresses, ensuring information remains accurate throughout the day.
Build Around Your Business
There is no single "correct" way to build a production scheduler.
Some businesses track only a few production stages, while others manage complex workflows involving multiple departments, decoration methods, and outsourced suppliers.
The flexibility of the JobBoard allows you to build a production scheduler that reflects your business today while remaining easy to adapt as your processes evolve.
Key Takeaway
The JobBoard gives your production team a live, customizable production scheduler that keeps everyone aligned.
By organizing work with custom columns, statuses, assignments, saved views, and real-time updates, your team always knows what needs to be done, who is responsible, and where every job is within your production workflow.
