Reports

Hard-copy printouts still play a major role in the business environment. Service Dispatch Systems understands that, and has devoted a large portion of its development effort to developing powerful (and meaningful) reports that pinpoint all areas requiring your attention, from one end of your business to the other. The list of reports is continually growing, and the depth and usefulness of each report is undergoing continual enhancement (based on both user input and our own high standards). Data can be viewed on-screen or committed to print at your option.

Employee productivity needs to be measured objectively, and not left to biased (and inaccurate) assessment. All relevant factors of a technician's performance are brought together in one place, and can be printed out in report form (where it becomes a powerful tool in your hands to ensure the right people are being commended or corrected). Too many call backs? Command Post 3000 tells you exactly how many a technician had for that month, quarter, or year. Average travel speed much slower than his co-workers? A good indication that he's doing something other than getting to the next job site with your trucks. This is one of the most valuable reports included in the Command Post 3000 system, empowering you to get to the bottom of a problem, correct it, and make sure it stays corrected.

Command Post 3000 uses powerful color-coding to track technician performance in each job category. You'll notice that this screen differs from the one above: the rectangles along the bottom are colored differently. Orange signifies a warning condition, while Red signifies a serious situation. The jobs the mechanic did that created his rating appear on the bottom list, and can be double-clicked to bring them on-screen to double-check what's going on. Mitigating factors might exonerate the technician — or maybe not! But you know instantly when performance is not meeting expectations.

The Employee Productivity Report can be printed out as well, breaking down the technician's performance for every job type and trade. The gray circles, like orange on the screen, signals a warning situation, while a solid circle indicates a serious problem exists that requires management attention.

Reports are not "hard-wired" in Command Post 3000's accounting modules (e.g., nine buttons to correspond to nine reports total). Rather, a growing list of accounting reports is provided. As the system evolves, the reporting power of the accounting modules continues to grow. Service Dispatch System does, in fact, "take requests" for industry-specific reports that enhance the power of the Command Post 3000 built-in suite of accounting tools, and prioritizes them alongside its in-house list of desirable reports that are continually under development. This module, and our approach to it, illustrates our contention that our software will never be finished, because our users' needs never stop evolving and growing. Room for growth is built in.
