WHY SERVICE TRACKER?
A field technician is packed with a ton of tasks and the chances of these tasks piling up or getting left are quite high. They might even face a tough time trying to locate customers or speak to them or even may not know their day’s schedule in advance, they might not be able to plan well and might end up being late for an booking time or appointment.
Ultimately, this application answers the issue faced above. This tool allows their employees to add the jobs/works, select customer requested the work and assign to workers/technicians.
Admin/Manager will be able to:
- Add Services/Job/Work/Task
- Add and select the customer who requested the work and assign a job to a suitable worker.
- Select a date and time the job has to be completed.
- The worker can keep track of the works assigned to them and update the status + add additional notes about the work.
