The jobs you see in the Jobs window are the jobs that require action by you as an approver or as an uploader. Administrators and Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) can see all the current jobs of the company. The total number of current jobs is indicated in the top left corner, next to the menu button. The menu button provides access to more advanced features of the application.
Job Tiles
A job tile shows a preview of the first page of the job. The tile is blank if no pages have been assigned to the job or if the first page is still empty. The title of the job is displayed in the top left corner of the tile.
An Alert icon in the bottom left corner of a tile indicates that the job needs attention because a deadline is about to expire or pages have been rejected. Clicking this alert icon opens the job information panel and displays information about the actions you need to take.

You may want to change the default roles assigned to users for a particular job. For example, Jane’s default role is Uploader and only Mary can approve pages. However, Mary’s not available to approve the job at hand and you want to assign the Approver role to Jane just for this job.
