Visual workflow automation

When a job hits a status, the next step fires itself.

Build automations on a drag-and-drop canvas — no code required. A job hits a status, SolarProjeX fires the next step automatically: assign a tech, send a notification, update a field, escalate to a manager.

The manual steps between one status and the next are where jobs get forgotten.

A job moves to "awaiting parts," and someone has to remember to check back in three days. A job closes, and someone has to remember to notify billing. Every one of these steps is small, and every one of them is a place a job can silently stall if the person who was supposed to remember is out sick or just busy.

SolarProjeX's workflow automation removes the memory requirement. Build automations on a visual, drag-and-drop canvas with no code: when a job hits a defined status, the platform fires the next step on its own — assign a tech, send a notification, update a field, or escalate to a manager if nothing happens in time.

  • Drag-and-drop automation canvas, no code required
  • Triggers on job status changes
  • Actions: assign, notify, update fields, escalate
  • Removes manual follow-up steps that are easy to forget
  • Runs the same way every time, regardless of who's out that day

How it works

A job hits a status. The next step just happens.

🔀

Visual canvas

Build the automation by connecting steps on a canvas — no code, no developer needed.

🎯

Status-triggered

A job hitting a defined status is what starts the automation.

📣

Assign, notify, update

Fire off the next step automatically instead of relying on someone to remember it.

Escalate automatically

If nothing happens in the expected window, escalate to a manager instead of letting the job go silent.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need a developer to build a workflow automation?

No — it's a drag-and-drop canvas, no code required.

What can trigger an automation?

A job hitting a defined status is the standard trigger, which then fires actions like assignment, notification, field updates, or escalation.
