Nearby Jobs is an optional feature in the Mobile App that empowers techs to view and take action on Jobs that are near their current location, regardless if they are on the scheduled appointment. This can be useful to techs when they need to find a job to perform work on that is also near their location. This feature can be turned off using role permissions.
Note: The Nearby Jobs Menu will list up to 50 of the closest Jobs in order to the tech's physical location, within a range of 250 miles.
