What it does
Turns your scribbled downtime log and out-of-order notes into a clean summary you can read over the phone or send to your repair company. It groups the problems by machine so the technician knows what to bring and what to look at.
Use it when: Use when a laundromat owner or attendant has a messy machine downtime log, out-of-order notes, or coin and error code reports and needs a clear summary to read or send to a repair company, such as: write up the repair call, summarize what's broken, or what do I tell the repair guy.
