What are the Crunchwork Applications?
Crunchwork is a collection of apps - each with a specific use, that provides specialised tools to give a user a streamlined and elevated experience when using Crunchwork. Apps are permission-based, depending on a user’s role. A user will be given access to the apps that will provide the tools required to complete their role.
Crunchwork app | Description |
Pulse | Pulse is the project management tool for logging jobs and tracking their activities and documents. It connects to all other apps in order to provide businesses with better visibility. |
Quotes | Quotes is a powerful tool that allows organisations to control and distribute how their users, or tenants in the system, interact with pricing. To maximise the benefits of Quotes, use it in conjunction with Catalog, Zones, and Accounts.
The quote app is primarily accessed through the ‘Asset’ table within Pulse jobs, or the ‘Create’ menu. |
Report Writer | Report Writer is a fantastic tool that allows users in the field to generate reports and outcomes based on predefined templates, removing the hassle of writing a new report for every new incident. Report Writer is formatted so that it can be easily viewed and filled from any smart device, and is highly configurable to suit your reporting needs.
The report writer app is primarily accessed through the ‘Asset’ table within Pulse jobs, or the ‘Create’ menu. |
Invoices | The Invoices app allows you to generate invoices from existing quotes/variations, as well as generate PDF copies and send the invoices to your vendors.
The invoice app is primarily accessed through the ‘Asset’ table within Pulse jobs, or the ‘Create’ menu. |
Admin | Admin is the app where new users are created (and disabled), and specific roles/permissions are assigned to them.
Typically, Admin app access is restricted to management. |
Dashboards | The Dashboards in Crunchwork show the logged-in user’s tasks that are open and overdue, as well as any Calendar appointments. Specific role Dashboards can also provide reporting insight |
Contacts | Our Contacts app is the best way to keep track of the people that your business connects with.
When a contact is added to a Pulse job, it will link back to the Contacts app. |
Purchase Orders | The Purchase Orders app lets users create, manage and send purchase orders within Crunchwork. We've also connected the Quotes app to Purchase Orders, so you can easily convert your quotes straight into Purchase Orders with just one click!
