Carrying out an intervention

You carry out an intervention with a few buttons, always in the same place: the action bar at the bottom of the screen. Each button moves the intervention to the next step and sends it to the office. The intervention’s tabs bring together the rest: safety, report, parts, photos, signatures and closing.

Before Start werk, your company can require an LMRA, a PPE check or the reading of documents: see Safety: LMRA, PPE and documents.

  1. On Vandaag, tap the intervention’s card (here FO004, 14:00, Woonzorgcentrum Lindenhof). The Interventies tab gives the full list, with the Open, Afgerond and Alle filters.

  2. The Overzicht (overview) tab opens: address and site, Navigeren (Google Maps directions), Bellen (call the customer), Waze, Apple Kaarten, the scheduled time, Opdracht (the job) with the office’s Instructies, the installation, the Tijden (times) and the Verloop (progress).

    The FO004 card circled in the Vandaag listThe Overzicht tab of FO004 with Navigeren, Bellen, Waze, Apple Kaarten and the Vertrekken button

The tabs at the top: Overzicht, Veiligheid (safety, if your company uses it), Werk (work, the report), Onderdelen (parts), Foto’s en handtekening (photos and signature) and Afronden (close). Swipe the row to see the last ones.

  1. When you leave, tap Vertrekken.

  2. The status changes to Onderweg; Tijden shows Vertrokken (left) with the time. The bar now offers Aangekomen and Start werk.

  3. On site, tap Aangekomen. The status changes to Ter plaatse.

    The Vertrekken button circledOnderweg status: Aangekomen and Start werk buttons, orange safety bannerTer plaatse status: Start werk remains

At each step button, the app records a single location (if you allow it). There is no continuous tracking; if you refuse location access, the step is recorded without it. The planners see the last location on the schedule’s map.

  1. Tap Start werk. If a safety check is missing, the orange banner above the buttons gives the reason and the app opens the Veiligheid tab: do the LMRA or the requested check (see Safety).

  2. When nothing is blocking any more, the banner disappears. Tap Start werk.

  3. The status changes to Bezig. The bar offers Pauze and Werk beëindigen.

    Start werk refused: the Veiligheid tab opens, the LMRA blocks the startNo more blocking: the Start werk button circledBezig status: Pauze and Werk beëindigen buttons

For a break, tap Pauze (status Gepauzeerd), then Hervatten to resume. Break time is counted separately (Pauze in Tijden).

Tap Werk beëindigen: the app opens the Afronden tab, where you choose the outcome and where the app checks the report, the signatures and the mandatory photos. See Report, photos, signatures and closing.

After closing, Tijden shows the departure, arrival, start and end times, with the Reistijd (travel time), the Pauze and the Werktijd (working time).

Tijden after closing: Vertrokken, Aangekomen, Werk gestart, Werk beëindigd, Reistijd, Pauze, Werktijd
  1. Tap ••• (Meer acties, more actions) on the left of the bar, then Klant afwezig (customer absent).

  2. Describe what happened in Wat is er gebeurd? (verplicht) (required), for example “niemand thuis, gebeld zonder antwoord”.

  3. Choose the Vervolg (next step) you propose to the office: Opnieuw inplannen (reschedule) or Interventie annuleren, then tap Klant afwezig melden (report the customer absent).

    The Meer acties window: Klant afwezig and Interventie annulerenThe Klant afwezig window with the required field and the Vervolg choice

Result: the intervention stays open, with the status Klant afwezig, marked “to reschedule” until a planner reschedules it. Your choice of next step is a suggestion for the office: the intervention is not cancelled by this button. If the customer does turn up after all, tap Vertrekken or Start werk: the app asks Interventie opnieuw starten? (restart the intervention?) and the visit starts again.

Once the work has started, Klant afwezig is no longer offered. If the customer leaves during the work, close with the outcome Gedeeltelijk afgewerkt (partly completed) via Naar Afronden: the hours worked are kept and the intervention is rescheduled.

  1. Tap ••• then Interventie annuleren.

  2. Enter the reason in Waarom wordt de interventie geannuleerd? (at least 3 characters).

  3. Tap Ja, annuleren (yes, cancel), or Niet annuleren to give up.

    The cancellation confirmation: the reason is required before Ja, annuleren

Each step reaches the intervention record at the office as soon as it is sent: the status, the “Werkelijke tijden” panel (actual times recorded by the technician), the timeline (“Vertrokken”, “Aangekomen op locatie”, “Werk gestart”, “Gepauzeerd”, “Hervat”, “Werk afgerond”, “Klant afwezig”). The labels differ slightly: Gepland reads “Nog niet gestart”, Bezig “Aan het werk”, Afgerond “Afgewerkt”. See The intervention record and The schedule.
