Tools & library

TOOLS

LIBRARY

📚 Library

Stored on this device only — add them once per device. PDFs open here; other file types open in whichever app the device uses for them.

💾 Storage & photos

Photos are almost all of a register's size. This shows where the space goes and can shrink them.

SHRINK PHOTOS

Re-saves every photo at a smaller size. Check the sample below first — panel labels and model numbers must stay readable. This cannot be undone except by restoring a backup.

Light — same dimensions, lighter compression (recommended) Maximum — also reduces dimensions to 1400px

HIDDEN DATA

An old upgrade copied some site details into fields this app can no longer show or edit. You have never seen them, but they are in every backup and every copy you send. Removing them does not touch anything you can see — your sites, contacts, equipment, test records and defects all stay. A backup is taken first.

📁 File

One file holds everything — clients, sites, plans, tests and photos. Save after changes; share via OneDrive. Backups live in ⚙ Settings.

WHERE THIS REGISTER LIVES

The one shared copy. Everyone opens and saves the same file.

KEEP A COPY

Copies do not sync back. Use them for working with no internet, or to hand a colleague a file.

Advanced & older formats

☁ Microsoft OneDrive

Keep the register in your own Microsoft account so it follows you between devices. Nothing is sent anywhere else — the app talks straight to your OneDrive.

Who did what in this register

Version:

Removes the cached register, backups, saved plans, planner data, PA recordings, library files and preferences from THIS device only. Register and plan files saved on disk / OneDrive are untouched — reload your register file afterwards.

⚙ Office settings

Things the office sets once and then works off. They are in here rather than on the Office header because they are not day-to-day.

Business & tax
Business name, ABN, GST, quote terms and bank details — they appear on the documents this app produces.

Pricebook
Your rates and prices. Quoting and invoicing read them without you opening this.

Service charges
Call-out and standing charges, set up once and then applied for you.

Business & tax

Your own business details. They travel inside the register file and appear on the documents this app produces. Nothing here is sent anywhere.

Business

Payment details

These print on your invoices so a customer knows where to pay. Leave them blank and the payment block is left off the document entirely.

Tax

This business is registered for GST

While this is off, no tax is worked out or shown anywhere, and documents are titled Invoice rather than Tax invoice.

Quotes

A quote is valid for

Days. Printed on every quote as “Valid until”. Frozen when the quote is sent, so changing this cannot expire a quote a customer is already holding.

Terms printed on every quote

One line each. Written from what Australian trade businesses commonly put on a quote — a starting point, not legal advice. Read it once and make it yours. The payment line and the Australian Consumer Law line are added automatically: the first so it always matches your invoice terms, the second because a term that tries to exclude those rights is void. Frozen when a quote is sent.

Accounting package

Switchover date

Payments recorded here BEFORE this date stay here, frozen as history — readable for ever, never edited again. Your accounting package owns everything from that day on. Nothing is migrated and nothing is duplicated, so there is no second copy to reconcile.

📢 PA announcements

Play a pre-recorded announcement over the PA / intercom before testing. Stored on this device only — never saved into the register or included in any export.
