Tracking time on a job
Tracking time on a job
VanMan includes a built-in timer on the mobile app that tracks how long you spend on each job. The timer runs in the background so you can navigate, make calls, and use other apps while it counts.
Open the job
From the driver day view, tap the job you are about to start.
Start the timer
Tap Start to begin tracking time. The timer appears at the top of the screen and continues running even if you switch to another app or lock your phone.
Complete the job
When the move is finished, return to the job and tap Stop to end the timer. The total time is recorded on the job automatically.
The timer runs in the background on your device. You can open Google Maps for navigation, call the customer, or use any other app without interrupting the timer.
Where time data is used
The recorded delivery time is stored on the job and visible in the job detail panel on both mobile and web. Operators can review time data to track crew efficiency and use it when preparing invoices for time-based billing.
Start the timer as soon as you arrive at the pickup location and stop it once the last item is delivered. This gives the most accurate picture of actual job duration for future scheduling estimates.
