The reports function is for recording and monitoring
requests for repairs or other works at properties although it may suit many other
situations. |
|
This is just a brief summary of what the system can do. For more details see the
demonstration version. |
New Report
A New Report is entered with details of where it is, the item that needs
attention, the nature of the problem and who reported it. Much of this is done using selection
lists for the unit and inventory which have default settings to make it a quick and simple
process. |
Activate Job
Once the job is saved you can store further information about quotes etc. if
you want to. Then to activate the job you simply select the contractor and whether you want to
notify them by phone, fax or email. If email is selected it will automatically send and in all
cases an email is sent to the person reporting the matter. |
Search Reports
The Search page allows you to select what you want to display and the results
are sorted by status. From here you can select the job and either add comments, change the status
or mark the job as completed. Contractors can be allowed limited access so they can add comments if
you want. You can also locate a report using the quick list which is sorted by reference. |
Information
The system stores details about contractors, units, and inventory. This includes
lease details, including a diary if appropriate. These details are used when entering a new report
for the selection lists and provide a useful record for reference. The information areas can be
updated by administrators. |
Other facilities
You can print a Purchase Order for a job. This can either be filed for reference
or faxed to the contractor. Reports can be extracted from the system in a variety of ways either
for printing or can be saved and opened in Excel. There is also a popup help window. |
