Field Service

Track every part from van to jobsite to invoice.

Sign materials out to a jobsite from any location, log quantities used, and push a completed Wave invoice from your phone the moment the job is done. The full field-to-invoice workflow without paperwork.

Key benefits

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Jobsite sign-out on mobile

From any mobile browser, scan barcodes or search by SKU to sign materials out to a named jobsite. Inventory drops at the source location immediately.

Van stock tracking

Model service vans as locations. Track what's loaded on each van, sign parts out to jobs, and restock from the main warehouse with a transfer order.

Materials used tracking

Log exactly which materials were consumed on each jobsite. Compare estimated quantities against actual usage to improve future estimates.

Wave invoice from the field

When the job is complete, review the materials used, add labour if needed, and push a Wave invoice in one tap. The customer gets invoiced the same day the work is done.

Jobsite estimates

Create a material and labour estimate before the job starts. Track actual usage against the estimate. Convert the estimate to an invoice when the job closes.

No laptop required

The entire field workflow — sign-out, stock check, invoice push — runs on any smartphone. No laptop, no back-office step, no paper forms.

How it works

Up and running in minutes.

1

Create the jobsite

Create a named jobsite in Safer Inventory and assign it to a customer. Optionally add a material estimate.

2

Sign out materials

At the van or warehouse, scan each item being taken to the job. Stock leaves the source location.

3

Log usage

At the jobsite, log the quantities actually used. Materials not used can be signed back in.

4

Close and invoice

Review materials and labour, then push a Wave invoice from the job summary screen. Done.

FAQ

Common questions, straight answers.

Can I track labour as well as materials?

Yes. You can add labour line items with hours and hourly rate alongside material line items on any jobsite estimate or invoice.

What if materials are returned from the jobsite?

You can sign materials back in to any location. Inventory is credited and the usage log on the jobsite is updated.

Does this require the mobile app?

No. The full field service workflow runs in any mobile browser. The Safer Inventory mobile app (iOS and Android) provides a more optimised experience but is not required.
