By providing automated reminders, Gas Checker means that reminders can be sent to you up to 11-months after a gas certificate is issued. You simply just need to sync your certificates to the Gas Checker Dashboard, it’s as simple as that.

You can view your reminders within the sync section of the Gas Checker app. Once a certificate becomes 11 months old, you’ll receive a reminder, as will the associated customer. Within the Gas Checker app, you can then re-issue the certificate, when this happens the app will remind you when the next 11 months have lapsed.

Reminders are sent via email and are all available via Gas Checker in the online gas reports section. All reminders are fully customisable within the Gas Checker Dashboard.

Use Gas Checker to add your staff and team members to your PRO+ account.

Use Gas Checker to add your staff and team members to your PRO+ account.

As a PRO+ account holder you are not able to add new accounts for your staff, giving you an efficient way for you to manage for staff and engineers. These accounts are known as sub-accounts and give you the ability to allow certain members of staff access to certain parts of your account. Ultimately as the main account holder, you decide which of your engineers have access to which parts of the system.

Only the main account holder is able to create sub-accounts through staff manager on the Gas Checker Dashboard.

Once a sub-user logs in, their account details are fixed, ensuring all sub-accounts are secure. Only you, the account holder is able to change their credentials, therefore if a staff member forgets their password (for example) you will be able to reset it without any hassle.

Sub-user accounts are just as secure as your PRO+ account, moreover sub-accounts will not be granted access to any of your personal authorisations. With sub-accounts working alongside your account, you, your staff and your customers are being dealt with in the most secure way possible.

How to create a new sub-account:

1.Login to your online account

2.Click the “Staff” button, and then “Add Staff”

3.Create a full sub user profile including invoice and certificate prefix’s

4. Activate that account by processing to checkout. Sub users priced from £2.50 + VAT per month, or £25.00 + VAT per year.

5.Give the login to your staff member, ask them to login to the app ensuring they tick the “i am a sub-user’ box. They will then need to go into the Gas Checker app settings and sign their name and set up the auto sync and press save.

6.They are now able to start creating Gas Certificates. As they have set up the auto sync, all reports/invoices created will be sent to the master account holders online cloud each day.

In the instance a member of staff leaves, you are able to delete their account and thus they will no longer have access to Gas Checker.

Gas Checker Job Management Feature Can Make Your Life Easier

Gas Checker Job Management Feature Can Make Your Life Easier

Gas Checker’s job management feature has been designed to help keep you organised, so you never miss a job. The easy to use feature will help you to management your jobs easily and effectively, thanks to two unique features – the job schedule system and the annual reminder job management.

site-img401

The job schedule system is so much more than a diary. It allows you to stay ahead of the game at all times; even on the go, as you can add jobs from the office or via the app. Anything you add will be shared across all of your devices so you will never have to remember to input all of the data twice. These jobs are identifiable by a job number that is automatically generated, so any further order forms or invoices related to this job can be easily linked and identifiable by their unique number. This means that you will not have to go trawling through old receipts trying to match them up with jobs, you will have it all in front of you. Because they are shared across all devices, it means that anyone in the business can amend and add notes. This makes life a lot easier, than having to remember to pass back relevant paperwork and information from the office to the engineers and vice versa. It helps your entire business run smoothly.

The annual reminder job management is great for an established business with a lot of repeat custom. Once you have used for eleven months or more, this feature will really come into its own, and you will begin getting automated reminders on repeat jobs. This not only helps you as a business stay organised, it means that your customers are receiving the best care as well, and that they will never fall behind on checks. This feature allows you to see what reminders have been sent already, to view your clients and installation details, as well as to see your progress in the job.

Your reputation is everything to your business, and this new feature from Gas Checker is so helpful at keeping you on top of all of your work and help to keep your business organised.
