Install Jobs Creator on Your FiveM Server

Getting Jobs Creator Running on Your Server

Installing a new script on your FiveM server can feel intimidating, especially if you're new to server management. This guide walks you through the entire process of installing Jobs Creator by Alone Studios — from download to first job creation. In 2026, the process is smoother than ever thanks to automatic framework detection and a built-in setup wizard.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

• A running FiveM server — You should already have a functional server with either ESX, QBCore, or QBOX as your framework
• FTP or file access — You need the ability to upload files to your server's resources folder
• A database — MySQL or MariaDB, which your framework likely already uses
• Basic server knowledge — You should know how to add entries to your server.cfg and restart your server

If you're running a hosted server (VPS or dedicated), you'll typically use an FTP client. If you're running locally for development, you can just copy files directly.

Step 1: Download Jobs Creator

After purchasing Jobs Creator from the Alone Studios store, download the script package. You will receive a zip file containing all the necessary files.

---

Step 2: Extract and Upload

1. Extract the zip file on your local machine
2. You will see a folder structure with the script files inside
3. Upload the entire folder to your server's resources directory (or a subfolder like resources/[scripts] if you organize your resources into categories)
4. Make sure the folder name matches the script's resource name — do not rename it unless the documentation says otherwise

---

Step 3: Add to server.cfg

Open your server.cfg file and add the following line:

ensure jobs_creator

Place this line after your framework's ensure lines (after ensure es_extended, ensure qb-core, or similar). This ensures the framework loads first and Jobs Creator can detect it properly.

---

Step 4: Database Setup

Jobs Creator may include SQL files that need to be imported into your database. Check the downloaded package for any .sql files.

1. Open your database management tool (phpMyAdmin, HeidiSQL, DBeaver, or similar)
2. Select your FiveM database
3. Import the provided SQL file(s)
4. This will create the necessary tables for storing jobs, employees, markers, and other data

Note: If you're using a framework that already handles job tables, Jobs Creator will work with your existing structure. The SQL import typically adds additional tables for the extended features like crafting recipes, custom shops, and marker configurations.

---

Step 5: Framework Auto-Detection

Here's where Jobs Creator stands out from other scripts. When you start your server, Jobs Creator automatically detects which framework you're running:

• ESX (including ESX Legacy)
• QBCore
• QBOX Core

You don't need to edit any config file to specify your framework. The script identifies it at startup and configures itself accordingly. If auto-detection encounters an issue (rare, but possible with heavily modified frameworks), you can manually select your framework from the in-game tablet's settings panel.

Internal Fallback System

Jobs Creator also includes an internal fallback mechanism. If a specific integration point doesn't match your custom setup, the script falls back to a built-in handler. This means you won't get errors or broken features just because you've customized part of your framework.

---

Step 6: Start Your Server

With the files uploaded, the database configured, and the ensure line added:

1. Restart your server (or start it fresh)
2. Watch the server console for Jobs Creator's startup messages
3. You should see confirmation that the script loaded successfully and which framework was detected

If you see any errors in the console, the most common causes are:

• Missing database tables — Make sure you imported the SQL file
• Wrong resource name — The folder name must match the expected resource name
• Framework not loaded first — Ensure your framework's ensure line appears before Jobs Creator in server.cfg

---

Step 7: First-Time Configuration

Once the server is running, join the game and open the Jobs Creator tablet. As the server owner or admin, you will have full access.

Initial Setup Checklist

1. Verify framework detection — Check the settings panel to confirm the correct framework was detected
2. Set your admin permissions — Make sure your player identifier is recognized as an admin
3. Create your first job — Test the system by creating a simple job with a couple of grades
4. Add a marker — Place a basic workshop marker to verify that in-game placement works
5. Hire yourself — Add yourself to the job to test employee features
6. Test the boss menu — Verify that the society account and employee management options appear

Integration with Other Scripts

Jobs Creator features auto-integration with many popular community scripts for:

• Inventory systems — Automatically works with popular inventory resources
• Garage systems — Integrates with common garage scripts for job vehicles
• Clothing systems — Supports popular wardrobe and clothing scripts for job uniforms
• Billing systems — Works with billing scripts for customer invoicing

You can manage and switch these integrations from within the tablet — no config file editing needed. This is especially useful if you change your inventory system or garage script later; just update the integration setting from the tablet and everything adapts.

Updating Jobs Creator

When Alone Studios releases an update:

1. Download the new version from your Tebex account
2. Back up your current installation (especially any custom configurations)
3. Replace the script files on your server
4. Check for any new SQL migrations in the update notes
5. Restart the server

Your job data, employees, markers, and configurations are stored in the database, so updating the script files will not erase your setup.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

"Script loaded but tablet won't open"

• Verify that you have admin permissions set correctly
• Check that no other script is conflicting with the tablet keybind

"Framework not detected"

• Make sure your framework resource starts before Jobs Creator
• Try manually selecting the framework from the tablet settings

"Markers not appearing"

• Confirm you added at least one marker to a job
• Check that you are on-duty for that job
• Verify the marker coordinates are in a valid game area
