Skimmer Billing give you a range of reports to track and manage your financial performance:
Quickly build routes for different techs throughout the week.
Review the route schedules for all techs, compare workloads across different technicians, and make permanent changes to the schedule.
Optimize driving time between stops on a given route allow pool pros to select start and stop points such as the company office or even the tech's home.
View the current schedule, make permanent and one-time changes, and track progress throughout the day. You can also add work orders to a route directly in this view.
Add an unlimited number of techs and admins to a Skimmer account and assign unlimited service locations to each customer.
Often referred to as a "digital door hanger" or proof-of-service, the Service Email is a report sent to customers to show service completion. It can be customized to include chemical readings, chemical dosages, completed checklist items, and names of techs. If photos are required, the email report includes the photos taken onsite.
Schedule services or repairs outside of regular pool cleanings and maintenance. Each work order type has its own set of checklist items, added items, and general rules such as "needs to be invoiced," "alert the office when added," "require a photo," "notify customer when finished," and "allow techs to add this type."
Create a customized checklist for all service stops (pool cleanings and maintenance). These tasks appear for every stop but can be augmented for each service location to include additional checklist items. Each task completed is recorded and appears within the service history record and can be included in the Service Email report to the customer.
Include photos during regular pool cleaning service stops and work orders as "proof of service." Photos can only be taken through Skimmer and not uploaded from the camera roll library. In addition, photos can be uploaded directly to the customer profile to capture general location information such as area, equipment, special considerations, or access points.
Quotes are proposed services and/or products for customers to approve prior to starting. Once approved, admins can create invoices for down payments, schedule associated work, and eventually bill for the work completed.
Invoices can be generated from completed work within the system or manually for items not captured in the system as "completed work."
Payments can be either online or offline.
Payments towards an invoice reduce the invoice amount due. Payments toward a customer account increase the credit balance to be used later for future invoices.
Send system notifications via text message to your customers.
Email notifications of completed work to the customer upon completion of a route stop or work order.
Send email communications to customers in bulk. Customers can be segmented by tag, specific service date, day of the week for service, or service tech. Email content can be drafted, saved, and edited for a later date.
