Digital Dockets

Replace paper-based job cards and printed dockets with digital ones your team can complete on any device, from any location. Aeflow Digital Dockets give your business real-time visibility into field activity while eliminating lost paperwork, data entry delays, and invoicing errors.

What is a Digital Docket?

A digital docket is an electronic record that captures the details of a job or task as it happens in the field. Instead of relying on handwritten job cards or printed forms, your team can record work details, materials used, hours worked, and client sign-offs directly on a phone or tablet the moment the job is done.

Every completed docket is instantly synced back to the office and linked to the relevant job, client, and project record in Aeflow, so your admin team always has accurate, up-to-date information without chasing paperwork.

Key Benefits of Digital Dockets

  • No more lost or illegible paperwork - All dockets are stored digitally and are fully searchable.
  • Real-time job visibility - See what is happening in the field as it happens, without waiting for end-of-day reports.
  • Faster invoicing - Accurate field data flows directly into invoicing, cutting delays and reducing errors.
  • On-site client sign-off - Clients can approve work and sign digitally before your team leaves the job site.
  • One central record - Every docket is linked to the job, project, and client profile in one place.
