]]>Having the ability to view the status and details of each job from anywhere at anytime, enables you as an owner to know exactly what’s going on with your employees and business as a whole. No more chasing phone calls, no more frustration!
With real-time update of job completion, you can raise an invoice straightaway without having to wait for job sheets to come back to the office. The sooner you raise the invoice, the sooner you get paid! The sooner you get paid, the better your cashflow, in return giving you the opportunity to invest back into your business.
While on site, your engineers can update the job details, attach pictures before and after, fill in all your required check sheets and finally get the client to sign for confirmation. No more reminders and no more forgotten information. Happy engineers, happy customers and happy you!
Having all information stored in one system, you can access and retrieve information within seconds from anywhere at anytime. It’s simple, you can action tasks and transfer data with just a click of button. No more going through files after files nor digging through piles of paper to find that piece of information. No more copying and pasting data from one system to another.
No more missed and forgotten invoices. Save money from postage, printing, servicing and even rent as you won’t need all that space for your files! The time saved on doing admin and filling in job sheets by each of your engineers, can be better spent on doing an extra job which generates revenue.
Software like Okappy gives you the additional benefit of connecting to your customers or subcontractors. Removing the need to email or print and send off job sheets or invoices at either end of the chain, they can simply log onto the network and have visibility of their own jobs.
Also you can customize how features are displayed according to your needs. You can upload your own check sheet or even customer feedback form. Produce reporting based on the search criteria with just a few clicks. These are all essential and right tools for running a well-managed business.
