So as the company is growing, I am realizing that I am not knowing a lot of times what exactly was done on a project, what stage we are up to, what needs to be done and what needs to be orderd. I know there is software like simpro to keep track of this, but we are not that size yet that can afford it.

 

** * *** ******** * ****** google **** **** *** ** ****** out **** *** ***** ** **** a ********. ** *** * *** fields:

*****

***** ** *** ****** ******* *** the ****

* **** ** ***

* *** **** *** ** *** job

* **** *********

* **** ***** ***** ** ** done

* ******** *** (**** *** ********** for *** ***)

* ********* **** **** *****

* ********* **** ** ** *******

 

* ***** **** *** **** ***** for **** *** ** **** ** out, *** ********.

 

* ** ******* * *** ** push **** **** ** ****** ****** something ***** *** ***** ** "**** will **** ** **** ** **** out ** *** ** ** **** need ** **** **** ** **** earlier. "

* **** *** *** **** ***** an **** ** **** ***, ** should **** * - ** *******. I ** *** ******* *** * minute ** ****** ****** ****** ** overall ****. ** * ***** ****?

*** **** ****** **** * ****** take ** **** ***, ** *** have **** ***** ** ****** **** this?
