When you manage a job in Dronedesk, everything you need is presented on a single screen, giving you an end-to-end view of the job and its associated tasks.
The Manage Job screen is divided into clearly defined sections, and Dronedesk gives you the flexibility to customise which sections are shown on screen and included in any job exports (PDF, print, or shareable link).
You can configure job sections in two ways:
Go to the top-right menu, click “Settings,” then select “Job Sections.”
Or, from within any job, click the gear icon to go directly to the same settings area.
Dronedesk supports six job types, which allow you to tailor section visibility depending on job complexity:
Standard
Simple
Complex
Simulation
Indoor
Non-drone jobs
This setup allows you to create tailored configurations for different kinds of work. For example:
Use a Simple job type for routine training flights in open fields.
Use a Complex job type for operations in high-risk or urban areas.
The configuration interface displays all available sections, and you can tick or untick them to:
Include/exclude them from the on-screen job view (first column)
Control their inclusion in the export formats:
Shareable URL (second, third, and fourth columns)
This means you can create multiple combinations of screen and export layouts depending on your operational needs.
In addition to selecting which sections appear, you can also reorder them:
Use the up/down arrows to move a section—for example, if you want to move the Sign-Off section into Pre-Deployment, simply drag it accordingly.
The order you set will reflect across all jobs using that job type.
All changes are saved automatically, and you'll see a confirmation in the top-right corner when updates are made.
These changes apply to all jobs of that type in the system—past, present, and future—ensuring consistency in how your jobs are displayed and documented across Dronedesk.
