Common disadvantages of printed work orders

Time-consuming – First print work orders and then collect them. Then your field service representative must manually fill out the work order and have it signed by the customer. At the end of the working day, the employee has to go back to the office to hand in the work orders. An administrative assistant then has to check the data on the work order, manually transcribe it onto the computer and finally prepare the invoice and send it to the customer.

Error-prone – Entering data manually is error-prone. Because you fill in the work order quickly, you may forget to write down important information. Which means you have to contact the customer again. But deciphering the handwriting of colleagues can also be a challenge. With the result that you may transfer incorrect data to the computer.
