Find Your Way Around Deployr
Updated 23 Sep 2026
Deployr is laid out the same way for everyone, but each person only sees the screens their staff role lets them open. If a screen described here is missing for you, your role doesn't include it. See Invite Your Team and Choose What They Can Open.
The Sections Across the Top
On a computer, the navy band across the top holds the sections. Choose one and the white band under it lists that section's screens.
- Overview: Today, the day at a glance, and Reports.
- Operations: Schedule, My Day, Jobs, Van Stock, Timesheets, Maintenance, Safety and Communications. Design & Calcs is there too when a trade pack with a calculation engine, such as HVAC & Refrigeration, is on.
- Customers & Assets: Customers, Sites and Assets.
- Sales & Money: Quotes, Invoices, Purchase Orders, Suppliers, Pricebooks, Inventory, Projects, Subcontractors and Onboarding.
- Documents & Forms: Documents and Forms & Checklists.
Choose Deployr at the top left to see which app you're in. When the HVAC & Refrigeration trade pack is on, it also offers Kelvin, the sister app for engineering calculations.
Search
Choose the search box at the top, or press Ctrl K (Cmd K on a Mac) from any screen. Type part of a job number, customer, site, address, serial number, PO number, invoice or quote number, supplier, technician or document name. Close spellings still match, so a typo usually finds what you meant. Use the arrow keys and Enter, or choose a result, to open it.
Search reads your records the first time you open it after the page loads, so anything added since won't show until you reload the page. It looks through the newest records of each kind, at most 1,000 of each, so for older work open the screen itself, such as Jobs or Invoices, and filter there.
Notifications
The bell beside search shows how many notifications you haven't read. Open it to see your 20 most recent, choose one to go to what it's about, or choose Mark All Read.
Settings and Your Account
The gear icon opens Settings. Only admins see it. Beside it is the account menu, which shows your name, or a person icon on a smaller screen. It holds:
- Night Board (Dark) or Day Board (Light), to switch between the dark and light look. Deployr remembers the choice on that device.
- Sign Out.
- Privacy Policy.
- Delete My Account…, covered in Delete Your Account or the Whole Business.
On a Phone
On a phone the navy band shows the screen you're on, with search, the bell and a menu button at the top right. The menu lists every screen you can open, by section, then Settings (admins only), the dark and light switch, Sign Out, Privacy Policy and Delete My Account….
Along the bottom are tabs for up to five of Today, My Day, Schedule, Jobs, Assets and Quotes, whichever your role can open.
More in Getting Started
- Set Up Your Business in SettingsWork through the setup list in Settings: your company details, branches, trade packs, job statuses, invoice review, email, terms and billing.
- Invite Your Team and Choose What They Can OpenInvite staff by email, set each person's staff role, and link technicians to their records so My Day shows their own work.
- Send Email From Your Own DomainSend quotes, invoices and reports from your own email domain instead of Deployr's shared address, by adding a few DNS records.
- Your Terms of Trade and Legal DocumentsAdd your own terms of trade, quotation terms and maintenance agreement, and put each version in force so records keep the terms they went out on.
