Logging notes, expenses and breaks on a job

Use the delivery log quick actions to add notes and expenses, and pause the timer for breaks in VanMan.

Updated 12 July 2026 · 2 min read

On a job's time and delivery screen there's a quick-action row with Note, Expense and Incident. Everything you add builds up a Delivery log feed, with the newest entries at the top.

Adding a note

Tap Note to add free text to the job's activity feed. Each note is stamped with the author and the time, so the office can see who added what and when.

Adding an expense

Tap Expense

Tap Expense and enter the dollar amount.

Choose a category

Pick a category chip: Tip fee, Parking, Ferry, Materials or Other.

Add a note if needed

Add an optional note for context, then save.

You can enter a negative amount to record a credit rather than a cost — handy when money needs to go back the other way.

Pausing the timer for breaks

The job timer supports Pause. When you pause, you can pick a reason — Break, Waiting, Breakdown, or just pause without one. Paused time is deducted from the billable time on the job, so breaks don't get charged to the customer.

Editing the delivery log

Entries in the Delivery log render newest-first. If you add something by mistake, long-press the entry to delete it.

Log expenses as you go rather than trying to remember them at the end of the day. A quick note against each one makes it easy for the office to match receipts.
