After-sales service

Digital work orders
for after-sales service

Software for merchants who also handle interventions, installations and maintenance after the sale. From scheduled job to signed-off work order and accurate invoice.

Selling is one thing, what comes after is another story. With digital work orders in Deskflow, your technician logs on-site what he did, the hours he worked and the materials he used, and has the customer sign off immediately.

Sales, stock and service all sit in the same system. You know which device you sold, with which serial number, which customer has it, and what's happened to it since.

No more paper work orders
The work order no longer leaves with the van. Everything is in the system straight away.
No more disputes afterwards
The customer signs off digitally on-site. The signature stays attached to the work order.
Nothing to retype anymore
Hours and materials from the work order flow through to the invoice and to your stock.

What are digital work orders?

Digital work orders replace the paper work order with an order in the software and on your technician's mobile app. He sees the job and the customer history, logs his hours and the materials used, has the customer sign off digitally and closes the job. The work order is instantly ready to invoice, with no one in the office having to retype anything. For merchants who also handle after-sales service, that's the difference between work orders turning up two weeks later and a job that can be invoiced the same day.

Serial numbers and lot management

Always know which device is at which customer

Deskflow tracks products per serial number or per batch. For every incoming and outgoing delivery, you log the serial or lot number and keep track of expiry dates. When a job comes in, you immediately see what you sold, when, and what's happened since.

  • Full traceability from supplier to end customer
  • Log serial or lot number at delivery and at every job
  • Track expiry dates per batch
  • Job history per device, not just per customer

Maintenance and repair

Recurring maintenance visits and urgent repairs. Every job is linked to the right device and the right customer.

Technical service providers

Companies that send staff out for technical jobs, with logging and reporting per assignment.

Frequently asked questions

Everything about digital work orders and after-sales service with Deskflow

Yes. The customer signs on the screen of the technician's smartphone or tablet. The signature is saved together with the work order and included in the confirmation sent to the customer, so there's no dispute afterwards about what exactly was done.
Yes. Deskflow lets you track products per serial number or per batch (lot). For every incoming and outgoing delivery, you log the serial or lot number, keep track of expiry dates and maintain full traceability, from supplier to end customer. During a job, you immediately see which device belongs to which customer and what's happened to it before.
The hours and materials the technician logs on the work order go straight to the invoice line. What's on the work order is on the invoice. Materials used are also deducted from your stock, so your stock stays accurate with no extra steps.
Yes, via the integration with Abax. Abax logs your technician's hours and trips via GPS, and Deskflow automatically links them to the work order scheduled for that day. A work order at an address also automatically activates a geo-fence, so arrival and departure are logged on their own.
For merchants and SMEs that also handle interventions, installations and maintenance alongside sales: installation companies, technical service providers, machinery dealers and service and maintenance companies. In short, any business that sells products and then sends technicians out for them afterwards.
Most customers are fully up and running within a few weeks, not months. Our team guides you step by step: from data migration and integrations to training your technicians on the mobile app.
