Someone made an template for windowcleaning company?
Looking for template with interval scheduling and payment oversight.
Any idea?
I’m building a template for my bosses pest control company. A very small one.
As far as scheduling goes, we have a wide variety of needs that TF doesn’t currently support.
My workaround is simply using Calendar for my reminders and TF for Work Orders.
For instance, If I have a reoccurring appointment for the second Tuesday of each month, I just put it in the calendar.
I also have a child form called “properties”. Within that form there is a field called “schedule”. This is a text field. I then created a pick list that can have multiple entries.
Now the pick list contains the words “first, second, third”, etc. Also in that pick list, I have the days of the week.
So If I wanna create work orders for the next day, I just create a search that says to find, within the field “schedule” anything that matches, for instance “second Tuesday”.
I then have a list of everything due on the second tuesday.
Now as far as payment goes, just create a field (a form maybe better) that has the payment info.
Have a field called “amount due”.
Then create a search that shows only the records where the “amount due” field is greater than zero.
This may be bad way to do things, but I’m kinda teaching myself as I go.
This database has been a work in progress, but my boss is quite happy with it.
