Create your first job
Last updated: May 27, 2026
Cinderblock lets you organize your work into jobs. Each job keeps your appointments, estimates, invoices, and notes together in one place, so you and your team always know where things stand.
To create a job, go to Jobs in the sidebar and click New Job in the top right corner.
Add a customer
The only required field is a customer. Click Select customer to search for an existing customer or create a new one on the spot.
To create a new customer, click Create new customer and enter at least a first name, last name, or company name. You can always add more details later.
Once you select a customer, you’re ready to save your job — no further details are required.
Optional details
Before saving, you can also add:
- Job name: a short label to identify the job
- Job type: categorize the work (New construction, Residential, Service call, Commercial, etc.). Job types are customizable — set them up to match how your business works.
- Job description: any notes about the scope of work
Click Save and you’ll land straight inside your new job, ready to add visits, estimates, invoices, and more.
