Use case · Managing a crew

When you can't be on every job.

Once there are more than two or three people out, the day becomes reports of the day. Who finished what, whether the site was left properly, what the customer was told. FieldLog turns that from a round of phone calls into something you can read.

"Yeah, that one is done."

Done meaning finished, or done meaning parts are on order and the customer has been told something you have not heard? You find out on Friday.

"Did anyone photograph it before we left?"

Sometimes. On somebody's phone, in a group chat, alongside four hundred other pictures and no address.

"The customer says nobody explained the extra charge."

Maybe they did explain it. Without a written note from the day, you are choosing which of two people to believe.

The record

What lands in the office.

  • The photo, stamped. Time and date burned into the image — not metadata that gets stripped when it's forwarded. The location is recorded on the report, so a coordinate never rides along in a picture your customer sends on.
  • A name on the work. Which tech, at which address, at which minute. "One of my guys" becomes D. Okafor, 9:14 AM.
  • The write-up from the day. What was found, what was done, what was tested — written when it happened, not reconstructed for the argument.
  • The filed line. Who filed the report, when, from where. The job closed on the record, on site.
  • Sent that day. The customer received this report in August. Hard to claim in March that nothing happened.
In practice

What changes when the reports arrive on their own.

Not surveillance. A written record of finished work, produced by the person who did it, without a phone call.

The end-of-day read

Reports arrive as jobs close. The Friday round of calls becomes a list you can scan.

The new hire

You can see how somebody documents work in their first week, on the jobs you are not standing on.

The quality check

Before and after on the jobs you would otherwise only see if a customer complained.

Handover between techs

The second visit starts from what the first one found and wrote down, not from a memory of a phone call.

The customer question

When someone rings about a job from three weeks ago, you can read what happened before you answer.

When somebody leaves

Their jobs stay documented. The record belongs to the company rather than to a phone that walked out.

Straight talk: FieldLog is a record, not a legal outcome. No app guarantees how a dispute ends. What it guarantees is that when one starts, your side of it is already written, stamped, and filed.

You cannot be on every job. You can read every job.
