When you upload your specifications document, our system will divide the document into sections and version them so that both the field and the office teams have the most up-to-date information!

When swiping to the right (-->), you will be changing the task status to "Completed" or your version of it if you are utilizing Custom Task Statuses. When swiping to the left (<--), you'll see a pop-up where you'll be able to choose which status you'd like to change that task to.
