What to look for in pool business reporting and admin software

Know which routes make money. Route profit tracking compares what each customer pays with the chemical and labor cost of servicing them. It's the fastest way to find pools you're charging too little for. It's only accurate if techs log chemicals and time, so check that's quick to do in the field.

Labor is your biggest cost. Tracking tech hours shows where the day goes, which stops run long and what each route really costs. If the hours can feed payroll, you also skip re-entering time sheets.

Inventory tracking matters once you stock trucks. Knowing what's in the warehouse and on each truck cuts emergency supply runs and missing stock. Barcode scanning speeds this up, but few tools offer it.

Contracts protect recurring revenue. Service agreements that customers sign electronically and that stay attached to the account make price changes, cancellations and liability much easier to handle.

Track your own equipment. Test kits, vacuums, tools and trailers move between techs and trucks. Knowing who has what saves on replacements and lost gear.

Scorecards help you manage a team. Stops completed, time per stop, callbacks and ratings for each tech show who's doing well and who needs coaching. They start to matter at around three techs. A solo operator can skip them.

Check how pools and spas at one address are handled. If many of your customers have a pool and a spa, make sure you can track each one separately, with its own readings, equipment and billing. Few tools handle this well.
