QiqApps

We are adding another product.

Teachers Gradebook

For quite a few years there have been various versions of a grade book spreadsheet available.

In the late 90’s I made one for a teacher. Soon there where more teachers that needed similar spreadsheets.

Then in the mid-2000’s, there was one from Royce Holdeman and Scott Schultz that became quite popular. It is still a great program but because of the macros it only works on desktop spreadsheet programs.

Now Russell Unruh has made another that does away with the need for macros and does everything you need for the desktop, from web office 365 or from mobile versions on your tablet or iPad.

2. Added pull to refresh for Jobs, loading more jobs in Job list section
3. Added the Autocomplete for searching a Customer in the job detail
4. We have given an option for customer to record an audio and upload it,
5. We have given an option for customer to click a picture and upload it,

 

October 2017 updates – version 2.0.2

• Profile page
• Better and easier to use recurring scheduler
• Dashboard with counts of Jobs
• feature to open completed jobs came back
• many small bugs

Easy job tracker is now being used for custom farming, yard care, irrigation well service and for truck delivery routing.

Right now we are working on better database communication, this will give us better speed and the ability to make smarter queries of the database for future features.

If you are interested in the app and to see if it is something you can use we can now give you a login for a trial on a sample company.   Please contact me via phone or with this form.

Version 2: The main focus is being customizable or flexible to meet your business needs. Here is a list of features

You can:

• Name your lists to make sense for your business.
  • Customer can be labeled: Farmers or Businesses etc
  • Location can be labeled: Fields, Site yards
  • Job list can be labeled: Jobs, Loads, etc.
  • Users can be labeled: Users, Drivers, Employees etc.
• Name the tasks in your jobs to make sense for your business.
  • in a haying business, you could have swathing, raking, baling, stacking, loading and hauling etc.
  • in lawn care you could have mowing, trimming, edging, etc.
  • in appliance repair, you could have dryer vent clean out, washer maintenance, clean refrigerator fins etc.
• Have as many or few tasks as you like in each job. Since not every job needs all the same tasks we have made this dynamic. For example:
  • haying you might only bale and stack after the farmer has swathed
  • or only do the swathing and not need to rake before you bale.
• reorder the tasks in the order you want them complete, You can drag and drop the tasks you add to the job to put them in the order you need them in.
• Have scheduled tasks and recurring schedules – every Thursday for example. Or you can schedule it for a specific day in the future.
• Have lower priority jobs that don’t float to the top until the higher priority jobs are completed. For example:
  • a customer wants a job done but doesn’t care when you do it. You can add it at a lower priority so that it is below all the regular priority jobs. When the higher priority jobs get done and the end of the day isn’t here you see the lower priority jobs and can work them in.
• Get an email with all the data so you can bill the customer and pay the employee when a job is completed. When the job is completed and you click to save and send you will get an email with the report of the job. It will show which employee did which parts of the completed job and the quantities of hours or pieces recorded.
• The web admin site.  There is 1 basic report ready and several more are being worked on. Feedback is welcome on what kind of reports you want for your business.

The tank tracker web app is now ready to use. The iPhone app is being worked on and we are doing a few finishing touched to the user experience of the web app.

Here are the features of Tank Tracker:

• Keep a repackaging log for chemical shipments
• Use the fill tank form to calculate the weight of the filled tank to speed up filling.
• Keep track of where the tanks are
• Run reports of the quantities of each product repackaged or shipped per day or per date range.
• Find a missing tank with the who, what, when, where search.
• Keep track of tanks expiration dates, so they can be re-inspected when needed.
• Keep a log of the reinspections.
