We understand that occasional human errors can occur, and to accommodate this, both you and your clients have the flexibility to make edits to an order even after it has been published.

The Power to Edit: What Can You Change?

After publishing an order, you do retain the ability to make certain adjustments. This is particularly handy for correcting human errors or adapting to unforeseen circumstances. Here are some elements of an order that you can typically edit:

  • Title: You can modify the title of the order to better reflect the job or task at hand.

  • Address/Location: If there's a change in the job location, you have the flexibility to update it.

  • Schedule and Dates: Life can be unpredictable, so you're allowed to adjust the schedule and dates to accommodate changes.

  • Number of Positions: If you need more or fewer workers for a job, you can modify the number of positions available.

While many aspects of an order can be tweaked to your liking, there's one notable exception: the job type. Once you've assigned a specific job type to an order and posted it, you cannot directly edit or update this field.

So, What If You Need to Change the Job Type?

If you find yourself in a situation where the initially selected job type no longer suits your needs, and you're wondering how to change it. The solution is pretty straightforward, you would need to do the following:

  • Place a New Order: Start by creating a new order with the correct job type. Ensure that all the details are accurate.

  • Close the Previous Order: You'll then need to close or cancel the original order with the incorrect job type. This ensures that you won't receive applications or inquiries for the job.

By following this process, you maintain order and clarity in your listings, ensuring that applicants see the most relevant and accurate job types for their skills and interests.

While you can make various adjustments to a posted order, the job type is one element that remains fixed once an order is published. If a change is needed, the best approach is to create a new order with the correct job type and close the previous one.
