How to work through the dashboard queue
Open CleanFlo and the first thing you see is a list of what needs you, with the button that deals with each one on the same row. Work down it and the day is in hand.
- The briefing. One sentence about the day, ending in how many things are waiting. The count is a link down to the queue.
- Desks. The queue is split into Money, Clients, Schedule, Team and CleanFlo, so you can see what is waiting on money without reading every row.
- The action. Each row carries the button that deals with it: Assign, Send a reminder, Call, Open.
- New. Quick add, in the title bar on every screen: a clean, a client, a quote, an invoice and more.
Clear the queue first
The panel is called Needs a decision. Every row is something that waits on you to do something: a clean with nobody on it, an overdue invoice, an invoice that bounced or was never sent, an accepted quote, an unanswered enquiry, a cleaner running late, a mileage claim to approve, a shift swap to decide. When you deal with it, the row goes.
Read the top three
The first three rows are the ones to do now. They are emphasised in place, so nothing appears twice on the page.
Press the button on the row
Most rows finish in one tap: Assign with a suggested cleaner, Send a reminder, Call a late cleaner. Anything that sends an email asks first.
Filter when it is long
Pick a desk (Money, Clients, Schedule, Team) or use Search these items to find one row.
Leave the rest
Anything you cannot deal with yet stays in the queue until it is done. It does not need ticking off.
Today, live
Under the queue, Today, live shows a strip for each cleaner with today's cleans on it, updated from the cleaner app as they start and finish. A clean with nobody on it carries an Assign button. When the day is done it says so, and then shows what is Next, tomorrow.
Money
- Owed to you
- Issued invoices not yet paid.
- Ready to invoice
- Finished cleans with no invoice yet. Invoice all finished jobs starts an invoice run for them.
- Taken this month
- Payments recorded against invoices this calendar month.
The week ahead and compliance
The week ahead puts each day's Booked (estimated) hours against the hours your cleaners said they are available, and marks a day Overbooked or with Spare capacity. The compliance card shows your score and the one thing that would lift it most. On a phone, these sit behind Day board, money and the week so the queue comes first.
At the foot, Recent activity is the log of what has happened, folded away. The queue is what needs doing; the activity log and the bell are what has happened.
