Testing certificates get messy after the job

The longer the cert waits, the more likely details end up copied from memory.

  • Customer and licence details repeated

    Contractor licence, name, and phone should carry over from your last certificate.

  • Wrong certificate type ticked

    Installations and equipment use different certificate types under the ES Regulation. Easy to mix up on a flat PDF.

  • Desktop PDF tools on a phone

    Generic editors are awkward when you just want to fill, download, and hand it over on site.

From testing done to cert handed over

Three steps that keep the certificate with the job.

Demo: pick a template from the catalog, fill the form on site using shortcuts like job import and address search, then download the finished PDF.
