FEATURED RELEASE
Better schedule control, clarity and accuracy
Introducing Conflict Detection + Notification, a new Calendar View, and Conflict Resolution Workflow to help you better manage your schedule and your reputation on the Field Nation marketplace.
More recent releases
Site Completion & Revisits Tracking
To help provide greater visibility into project timelines and costs, we’re now collecting a reason for repeat work order check-ins and job status information when you mark a work order complete.
Barcode Scanner on Tasks
Instead of manually entering part numbers, you can use the Barcode Scanner in the mobile app to automatically populate part numbers into the buyer’s task.
Reliability Metrics Updates
Your Timeliness and Cancellation Rates are now visible to Buyers in the new Match experience, and they can filter based on their company’s quality thresholds. A focus on improving and maintaining these metrics can set you apart on the marketplace.
Business Dashboard
The all-new Business Dashboard is filled with data + insights to help Providers grow their businesses on Field Nation – including key performance metrics Buyers look at when vetting, their relationship insights, and a section to keep a pulse on their overall business performance.
Pre-Approved Expenses
Pre-Approved Expenses are now displayed below labor rate on the Work Orders page in the mobile app, making it easier for buyers to categorize expenses and easier for you to see how much the buyer will cover for travel or materials.
Pre-site Pickup
Work orders may now include a “pre-site pickup” label, requiring parts to be collected from a specified location before checking-in for a work order.

Barcode Scanner on Custom Fields
Adding the number, decimal, or text field type to your task list as a provider-entered custom field now allows providers to open a barcode scanner on their mobile app instead of entering in part numbers manually.
New Support Case Statuses
The “Response needed” support case status will be replaced by “Waiting on Buyer,” “Waiting on Provider,” or “Waiting on Both Parties” so it’s more clear who needs to take the next step.
