Getting started setting up your Fieldmagic solution, we've put together a list of the common first set-up tasks you will want to focus on in order to start getting the very best out of your new solution for the business. 


Step 1: Connect your Accounting System


This will at a minimum be useful as this will import your Tax and Account Codes, Product List, and allow you to synchronise new invoices created in Fieldmagic to your accounting system to remove any double entry. It will also ensure clarity across what Jobs have been invoiced, and which have not. 


To connect your accounting, simply go into Settings and Follow the Prompts under Connect Applications: 



Step 2: Define your Billing Categories


This will ensure you flag the correct products in your product catalogue as 'Labour' which will be useful for when your team tracks their time entries on jobs, and for quoting and invoicing labour.

Step 3: Define your Company Details and Colours

Learning About Opportunities and Quotes


Fieldmagic allows you to create opportunities which can hold multiple quotes. This is often useful for sending a number of quotes to a customer, each potentially slightly different, and then selecting the winning quote to then progress to a job.
