How to Change Job View & Panel Settings

Jobs in the web dashboard open in one of two ways: as a window over the page, much like the old job window, or beside the map, so the map stays in view. One button at the top of a job switches between them. Your choice is remembered in this browser, and every job opens that way until you switch again.

Note: Companies created before October 16, 2026 start with jobs opening as a window. Newer companies start with jobs beside the map. On a phone, a job always fills the screen.


Step 1: Click a job, for example in Dispatch › All jobs or on a person's route. Beside the map, the job opens on the right edge of the map, and the map stays in view.

Step 2: To open jobs as a window, click Open as a window (the two arrows) at the top of the job.

Step 3: The job opens as a window over the page, with its parts side by side and a small map of where the job is. A message says From now on, jobs open as a window.

Step 4: To go back, click Beside the map at the top of the window. From now on, jobs open beside the map.

Step 5: If your company started with the window, the first job you open shows a note: "Jobs can now also open beside the map, so the map stays in view." Click Try it to switch, or × to close the note.

Step 6: To make a job shorter, click the heading of a part you don't need, such as Details, to fold it away. Click it again to open it. Folded parts stay folded for the next jobs, in both views.

Note: The New job card has the same Open as a window button. It opens the new job with all its details as a window, and jobs open as a window from then on.

Beside the map, when space is tight, the main menu and the people list fold away while a job is open. To learn more, click here.
