Work with job list
TaxDome gives you lots of tools to manage and keep track of your jobs. You can view, search, filter, and print them.
Job list
To view all jobs within a pipeline on a single page—so you can sort or apply filters for reporting—go to Workflow > Jobs from the left sidebar menu. You’ll find all your past and present jobs inside the In progress and Archived tabs.
In the job list, the icon

View jobs for the account
To see all the jobs for a client, navigate to the client’s account, then go to the Workflow tab. Open the All jobs subtab to see all in-progress and completed jobs for that account—as well as their assignees, pipelines, stages, priority, internal and client-facing statuses, start dates, due dates and the time in the current stage.
View recent jobs for the account
Sometimes, you need to see which services have been provided to the client in the past. You can find this information on the job card. To view the list of the account’s recent jobs, open any job for this account. The list of recent jobs will be displayed right after the linked elements.
The five last jobs for this account are displayed here. Clicking the job name will open it. If you click All account jobs, the list of all jobs for the account will open.
View jobs in calendar view
You can also see all the current jobs for your firm on the Workflow > Calendar page, which offers various viewing options. Click Jobs to switch to a jobs-only view. You can read more about how jobs are displayed on the calendar .
View jobs on the Insights page
One more way to see your current jobs is the Jobs widget on your Insights page. Firm owner and admin can select a team member whose jobs will be displayed. If you want to track jobs for two or more team members, you can add as many Jobs widgets as you need. Here’s more info on the jobs widgets .
Customize your job list
You can customize your list of jobs in different ways: resize, enable, disable and move columns to your liking.
To customize the size of columns (except for the Name column), click and hold the divider between column names and resize it by moving your mouse.
To set up the columns you want to be displayed, click the gear icon at the top right of the table.
Here you can select the columns you want to be displayed. You can enable, disable or move any columns you want, except for the Name column. After clicking Apply, the table will be rebuilt with new columns. Clicking Reset will display all columns.
Sort jobs
You can sort jobs in different ways depending on where you’re viewing them:
- From the job list (Workflow > Jobs): Click the up-down arrow next to a column header. You can sort by any available field, such as name, status, or date.
- From the pipeline kanban view (Workflow > Pipelines): Click the Sort button at the top right of the kanban view, then select the field you want to sort by from the dropdown. The default sorting set in pipeline settings is displayed in the dropdown.
- From the pipeline settings (Workflow > Pipelines > Edit pipeline): Go to the Settings tab on the Edit pipeline page, then select an option from the Sort jobs by dropdown.
Note
Sorting applied from the kanban view takes priority over the default sorting set in pipeline settings. When no kanban view sorting is selected, jobs display in the order specified in pipeline settings.Search jobs
You can search both in-progress and archived jobs. Plus, all custom fields are searchable, too. Go to Workflow > Jobs, type a keyword in the search field at the top right, then press Enter on your keyboard.
To search for archived jobs for a specific account, go to the client account’s Workflow tab, then open the Archived subtab.
Type a keyword in the search field at the top right of the page, then press Enter or return on your keyboard.
Filter jobs
Use filters to narrow down the job list and find specific jobs quickly. For example, you can filter to view all jobs for a particular account or all jobs with a specific status.
You can filter jobs from two locations:
- Jobs page (Workflow > Jobs): View and filter all jobs across your firm.
- Pipeline page (Workflow > Pipelines): View and filter jobs within a specific pipeline only.
To filter the jobs list, click the Filter button at the top left of the page and select the filter and the parameter from the dropdown.

Selecting is/in will display jobs that contain the value selected in the filter
