Job notes and comments in SimplySub give subcontractors a simple way to keep important job details connected to the right record.
Instead of relying on memory, text messages, or scattered conversations, office teams and field crews can add notes directly to the job. This helps keep everyone aligned when billing details, customer conversations, vendor updates, or field issues need to be documented.

Why it matters
Small details can matter a lot on a job. A call with a supplier, a billing update, a conversation with a superintendent, or a delay in the field can all affect how the job is managed.
By keeping notes inside the job record, subcontractors can reduce confusion and give the office a clearer picture of what happened in the field.
Built to stay simple
SimplySub makes job notes easy to add from desktop or mobile. Crew leaders can open the job, tap Add Note or Comment, and type or speak the update into their phone.
Notes stay searchable inside the job record, which makes it easier to look back later when a question comes up about what was discussed, when something happened, or who documented the update.
