Questions from irrigation teams.
Visit the Help CenterCan I schedule spring startups and fall winterizations?
Yes. Create a recurring job for the system and choose how often visits repeat. The startup and the winterization stay on that job, with the zone and controller notes.
Can I use my price book and offer optional items?
Yes. The price book prices heads, valves and controllers on the tech's phone, and an estimate can carry optional items the customer picks on the estimate itself, like a new zone, a controller upgrade or a backflow test. Every unaccepted estimate stays in one list until the customer accepts or declines.
How do deposits and customer payments work?
Customers pay by card from the invoice you email them, straight into your own Stripe account. A deposit on a new zone or an installation is recorded against that invoice, and so are partial payments, cash and checks.
Can I mix residential and commercial work?
Yes. HOA, campus and property accounts keep several properties, on the same records as your residential route book. Each invoice carries its own payment terms, such as Net 30. Backflow test certificates are photographed onto the job.
What can I bring over from my current system?
Your customers come over from the app you use now or a spreadsheet, along with their jobs and invoices. You check a preview before anything is added, and everything you enter stays yours. See how switching works.
What does setup involve for my crew?
Create the account, add each person with a role, and they sign in on their own phones. The Help Center walks through each step, and the support page has chat, email and the support line when you want a hand.
