A completion record should explain what work was carried out and what remains open. It is useful for both the operator and customer, especially when the original request changes during the job. Keep the record connected to the agreed job brief and its latest version.
Use the same measurement basis
Record the task, location and area or output using the method agreed for the service. Identify estimates as estimates. Where time is recorded, explain whether it represents operating time, attendance or another defined measure.
Do not treat a machine-hour reading as a complete description of the work. The customer also needs the task and any relevant interruptions or changes recorded alongside it.
Complete a short handover note
- Job reference and date.
- Operation and equipment used.
- Work recorded as completed and its measurement basis.
- Areas or tasks left incomplete, with a reason.
- Observations requiring the customer’s or provider’s follow-up.
Use photographs where appropriate and authorised, with captions identifying the location and purpose. Keep private farm or customer information out of public marketing material unless separately approved.
Resolve differences using the record
If the customer and operator disagree about the scope or result, compare the completion note with the original brief. Record the specific point requiring review rather than altering the record to imply agreement.
For example, a job interrupted by unavailable access should identify the affected area and the work actually completed. This makes a follow-up discussion more precise. Keep billing and any remedy tied to the service’s actual agreed terms; the completion form does not create a price, acceptance rule or compensation promise. Retain the final record for future scheduling and equipment planning.
