Use these questions during intake. Record the answers, the person responsible and any unresolved decision in the job record before confirming the next step.
- 1
Which circuit or fixture is affected, and when was the issue first noticed?
- 2
Who can provide panel access and approve an interruption of service?
- 3
Which completed work, test results and unresolved items should appear in the service report?
Job management
Capture the reported issue, property address and photos before assigning work. Keep the occupant’s access instructions separate from the job scope, and identify the person authorized to approve additional work.

Assign the visit to a teammate and confirm the appointment window with the property contact. Check equipment access and any building restrictions before departure. Keep a return visit linked to the original job when parts or approvals are still needed.
Explore this toolQuotes, invoices & payments
Prepare an itemized quote from the agreed scope. Record approved changes before invoicing, then keep the completion notes and payment balance with the client. This makes it easier to explain a repair and distinguish it from a later request.

Adapt this operational checklist to your agreed scope and professional requirements.
Put the plan into practice
Start with one client record and one clearly scoped job. Link the service address, relevant files and agreed next action. Review the plan with the assigned teammate before the first visit, and update the record when the client approves a change.
