Accessing Kiosk Mode
To access Kiosk Mode from a computer, simply log in to Jobman from your browser, then click on Kiosk at the bottom of your User Menu Panel:
If using Kiosk Mode on a tablet, we recommend saving the Kiosk login page link to your browser favourites or your home screen.
Logging In
Choose your name from the drop-down menu and use the keypad to enter your PIN.
For first-time users: You will have received a temporary PIN from your employer which you will need to log in for the first time. You will then be prompted to set a new PIN after logging in.
Kiosk Mode Dashboard
Once logged in, you will be taken to your Dashboard.
- Depending on your staff role and permissions, you may not be able to see all the buttons shown below.
- From your Dashboard you will also see any agenda screens you have been assigned to.
Navigation Icons
At the top of your screen, you'll see several navigation icons:
- My Profile
- Home Screen
- Notifications
- Help
- Log Out
Agenda Screens
Your agenda screens will show you lists of the tasks you are assigned to complete, in order of priority.
You may be assigned to more than one agenda screen. Simply click into it to view pending and completed tasks, as well as due dates and estimated times.
Starting, Stopping, and Completing Tasks
To start, stop, or complete a task, you can either click into it, or click on the three-dot menu next to it:
You can use either of these methods to:
- Start a task
Begin recording time against a task. This will also create a timesheet entry.
- Pause a task
Use this function when you're going on break, so that time won't be recorded against the task incorrectly.
- Stop a task
Use this function when you have stopped working for the day. This will complete your timesheet entry.
- Set progress
Use the sliding scale to indicate the percentage of completion you have reached for a task.
- Complete a task
Task has been finished!
- Mark as N/A
Task is not required. This will remove the task from your list and bring the next one forward.
- See Files
Access shared images or documents.
Automation: If you start a new task, this will automatically stop the last task you started and update your timesheet.
Note: Depending on your staff role and permissions, you may not have access to all of these functions.
Sharing Files to Kiosk Users
Files can be seen by Kiosk Users with the necessary access once they are uploaded to a lead/job/project by an Office User.
Files can be uploaded to leads/jobs/projects from Resources > Files.
