Dashboard
Jobs by Service Widget
How to read the Jobs by Service chart on the Dashboard, including what the slice size means and what extra figures appear in the tooltip.
Jobs by Service is the pie chart that helps you judge which services are driving the most weight on the Dashboard. It is useful when you want a service mix view rather than a status view.
What the Chart Shows
- Slice size: The pie is driven by revenue values, not just by the number of jobs.
- Service names: Each slice is one service type.
- Tooltip detail: When you hover a slice, Work Planner shows both the job count and the revenue total for that service.
How to Read It Well
- Large slice, low job count: Often means that service brings in higher-value work.
- Large job count, smaller revenue: Often means that service is frequent but lower value per visit.
- Date range matters: Because revenue is part of the calculation, the selected date range changes how useful the chart is and can change the balance between services significantly.
Good Uses
- Service mix check: A quick way to see whether the business is being carried by one service or spread more evenly.
- Pricing sense check: Helpful when one service produces a lot of jobs but less revenue than expected.
- Planning conversations: Useful when deciding which services deserve more attention, marketing, or operational capacity.
