Managing subcontractors –particularly across different jobs, teams, and locations– can be a logistical challenge. Lexul Field Service addresses this with top tools that streamline coordination, oversight, and invoicing, while using a powerful QuickBooks integration for crucial data syncing—that includes customers, jobs, items, bills, equipment, time and materials, and more—while keeping data secure.
Easy Subcontractor Integration
Lexul Field Service allows subcontractors to access the system via connected accounts. This way, both contractors and subs work from the same platform –no more juggling separate systems– bringing transparency and consistency to every update and progress report.
Centralized Dispatch and Scheduling
Using multiple dynamic dashboards, managers can assign or swap subcontractors on jobs based on skillset and availability. “Quick Actions” let you modify assignments, reschedule, or update statuses instantly –reducing admin time and cutting down miscommunication.
Full Visibility Into Job Details
Each work order contains all necessary information like customer data, site details, scope of work, and documentation. Subcontractors start with work request briefings from an email and request details, reducing back-and-forth, callbacks, and missteps.
Guided Workflows to Ensure Quality
Dynamic workflows guide subcontractors through every step: pre- and post-job inspections, photo uploads, site surveys, and e-signatures from on-site managers. This ensures compliance and delivers consistent work quality
Time & Expense Tracking
Subcontractors can log time (including logging crew hours via foremen) and upload expenses directly on-site with digital job receipts on each work order. These entries sync as a “Bill” in QuickBooks or export for payroll, eliminating late submissions and fragmented data. Upon sync see QuickBooks job costing reports to help estimate costs, make proper decisions, and bring more efficiency.
Real-Time Invoicing & Payment Acceleration
Once work and documentation are complete, Lexul Field Service generates invoices on the spot –complete with parts, labor, and e-signatures. Integrated QuickBooks sync gets invoices out fast, so subs get paid sooner rather than later.
Permission Controls & Compliance
Lexul Field Service supports custom permission levels, letting you control subcontractor access to documents, customers, assets, and contracts. This ensures sensitive info stays protected, even in complex field setups.
