What belongs in the metalwork work report

Document measurements with values and photos — they are the basis of fabrication and your evidence in case of fitting issues. During installation: record substrate, anchors used and extra work, and have the client sign. That turns the job into an undisputed invoice.

E-invoicing & public contracts

Railings for schools, gates for municipal yards: public clients only pay against XRechnung. DasHandwerk.xhub generates it automatically from your normal invoice.
