Electricians, plumbing-heating, painters, joinery, landscaping, tilers, carpenters, floor layers, drywall, metalwork — 10 trade sectors, one system. Job management, technician app with photo and signature, PDF invoice in under a minute, automatic annual maintenance reminders. From paper job ticket to digital file.
The technician drives to the customer with the smartphone. He sees the job, photographs the situation, writes the material list, gets a signature — all in the mobile web app, no install. Back at the office: invoice as PDF with one click, automatically sent to the customer, in DATEV format to the tax adviser.
At AnvaCode we don't build a generic trades tool — we tailor job fields, material lists and invoice layout to your business — whether 2-person shop or 30-person electrical firm with its own accounting.
Four problems almost every master craftsman knows — and for which we've built concrete solutions.
The job ticket travels from the office to the technician, to the workshop, back to the office. After two weeks at the latest it's crumpled, half filled in or gone. Endless callbacks — job & payment get delayed.
Losses: 1–2 office hrs / dayThe technician phones in: „Write down — 3× Wago connector, 2× halogen lamp, …". Office staff notes it, forgets one, the material is missing on site the next day. Repeat trips, lost hours.
Losses: 1–2 extra trips / weekJob is done — but someone writes the invoice on the weekend or only at month-end. Money sits there for 4–8 weeks, dunning customers gets forgotten. Cash flow suffers, and it would be avoidable.
Losses: 4–8 weeks liquidityAnnual heating service, electrical check every 4 years — you know when it'd be due, but no one reminds you. Result: customers go to the competition. An automatic maintenance SMS brings back 20–40% of them.
