Jobs in Begin represent specific tasks or assignments that employees work on. Jobs are organized by job type and can track units and pricing. This article explains how to create and manage jobs.

How to add a new job

  1. Go to Jobs in the left sidebar.

  2. Click Add job in the top right.

  3. Fill in the form:

  • Name — a descriptive name for the job (required)

  • Job type(s) — select one or more job types this job belongs to

  • Unit — the unit of measurement (e.g., pieces, meters) — visible if unit tracking is enabled

  • Price — price per unit

  1. Click Save changes.

Editing jobs inline

The jobs list supports inline editing. Click directly on a cell in the table to change the name, job type(s), unit, or price without opening a form. Changes save automatically.

Filtering and searching

Use the search bar to find jobs by name. Filter by status (Active or Archived) and by job type to narrow the list.

Archiving and activating jobs

Select one or more jobs using the checkboxes and use the floating toolbar to archive or activate them. Archived jobs are hidden from selection dropdowns but their historical data is preserved.
