# Can I get a notification when a pilot completes a job?

Want to stay informed when jobs are completed? In this video, we’ll show you how to receive email notifications as soon as a pilot marks a job complete, so you can keep your workflow moving smoothly.

If you'd like the **admin on your Dronedesk account** to receive a **notification when a pilot marks a job as “Work Complete”**, you can configure that in the system.

1.  Go to the **top right menu**, select **“Settings,”** then **“Workflow Configuration,”** and click on **“Workflow Notifications.”**
    
2.  Look for the option labeled: **“Notify account admin when job is marked as work complete by the pilot.”**
    

It's important to note the distinction between **“Work Complete”** and **“Job Complete.”** “Work Complete” is an **interim status** used to indicate that the pilot has finished their part of the job, but final review or approval is still pending.

When this option is enabled, the **admin will receive an email notification** as soon as the pilot marks the job as “Work Complete.”

From the pilot's perspective, within the job management view, **“Work Complete” appears as a status option before “Complete.”** This allows the admin to review the job once notified, and then mark it as **fully complete** once they’re satisfied with the outcome.
