Scheduling follow-up jobs & using DSM for drop off & pick up dumpsters.

DSM can be used for automatically scheduling & creating follow-up jobs. Common uses for this feature is dumpster bins.

The first thing you’ll want to do here is see “File, Table Maintenance, then work types & groups”

Next, make a group called “Disposal”, so click the add button and make a new group.

Click OK.

Next, click the NEW button in the lower left hand corner. Fill out the information.

Note: First create the PICKUP work type first. Then create the drop off work type. The reason is because in the drop off work type, you’ll have to select the type of job to schedule X number of days after. Thus, you’ll want the pickup job created first so you can pick it. Otherwise, you’ll be going back and forth to get this part right.

Now that you’ve made the work types, highlight them on the left and click the ASSIGN button. This will assign them to the new group you created earlier.

After assigning your new work types to the group, click EXIT.

You’re now ready to create jobs for drop offs & pickups.

You may also use this feature when you know a certain type of work will require another type of work to be done X number of days out. For instance, if you have a demolition job, you typically know that a dumpster may be needed. If you do this, you could make the demolition work type automatically schedule a drop off job, and the drop off job automatically creates the pick up too. This could help automate many processes you have.
