Complete, real-time, seamless communication with field technicians increases efficiency, reduces paperwork, eliminates errors, and improves cash flow.
- At the completion of a service or transport job, parts are scanned onto the job, labour details are entered.

COMPLETE FINANCIAL REPORTING ACROSS ALL DIVISIONS OF YOUR BUSINESS
Baseplan Enterprise is fully integrated with key modules within the software. For instance, credit checking is available in both rental and service modules. This de-duplicates data entry and speeds up processes.

The comprehensive general ledger account numbering system allows for great flexibility in the setup and formatting of the chart of accounts for departments, cost centres and different types of revenue and expenses.
