Digital project file

One central place for all your documentation

clockin creates a digital project file for every job automatically. All photos and documentation are collected there – structured, searchable and still available once the project is finished. You can share the file with customers directly as a PDF export or a read-only link.

  • All photos and documentation filed automatically
  • A chronological overview of the whole project
  • Export as a PDF or share with customers via a read-only link

Digital checklists

So nothing gets forgotten in the documentation

Checklists let you set out binding procedures. You decide where a photo is mandatory – and clockin makes sure it is actually taken before the task can be ticked off. That way the documentation is complete without you having to chase anyone.

  • Photo upload can be made a mandatory field in checklists
  • Consistent procedures for the whole team
  • Every completed checklist lands in the project file

FAQ

Wir haben für dich die häufigsten Fragen zur Funktion der digitalen Projektakte gesammelt und beantwortet.
How do I take photos in clockin?

You simply open the relevant project in the clockin app and take a photo of the job site. The image is assigned to the project automatically and is immediately visible to every authorised team member.

Can I make photos a mandatory field in checklists?

Yes. When you create a checklist you can set photo uploads as a mandatory field. That way you make sure your team really documents the work instead of just clicking through.

Does photo documentation work offline as well?

Yes. Like every clockin feature, photo documentation can be used offline. Photos are stored locally and synced automatically as soon as there is a connection again.

Can customers see my photos?

Indirectly, yes. You can export the project file or construction file as a PDF or create a read-only link – and decide yourself which content is visible. Customers get no direct access to your clockin account.

How long are photos stored for?

For as long as you want. clockin stores all data in the cloud in line with the GDPR – you have access at any time, even after the project is finished.

Which industries benefit most from photo documentation?

Anywhere the condition on site has to be documented: skilled trades, construction, plumbing and HVAC, commercial cleaning, building maintenance services, landscaping and gardening. In short: anyone who currently forwards photos by WhatsApp.
