It is the proof of the visit for billing, warranty and AMC records.

Download the Word file below. ## Service call report format: sections - Call details: call no., date, time received, reported by - Customer: name, site, contact person, phone - Equipment: type, make, model, serial no., under AMC or warranty - Complaint: as reported by the customer - Fault found: what the engineer diagnosed - Action taken: repair or adjustment made - Parts replaced: item, quantity, chargeable or covered - Readings: before and after where applicable - Time: in, out - Status: resolved, pending part, needs revisit - Customer remarks and signature , engineer signature ## Filling it well - Write the fault and the action separately. "Serviced" is not a report. - Record serial numbers; they link repeat calls to the same unit. - Mark parts as chargeable or covered, so billing does not guess. - Get the signature before leaving, not "later on WhatsApp". ## Trade-specific additions - AC: gas pressure, current, outlet temperature. - RO: TDS before and after (see the [RO service report format](https://servicepilot.in/blog/ro-water-purifier/ro-service-report-format/)). - CCTV: cameras working, recording days (see the [CCTV service report format](https://servicepilot.in/blog/cctv-security/cctv-service-report-format/)). ## Where call reports go wrong Paper reports get lost in the van, and nobody can find last year's report when the same unit fails again. Keeping the report on the job means history is always one click away. ## Keep call reports on the job In ServicePilot every [job](https://servicepilot.in/features/jobs-and-scheduling/) carries checklists, photos, materials used and a signature, linked to the customer's [site and equipment](https://servicepilot.in/features/customers-sites-assets/). The technician mobile app is used to fill this in on site.

A call report is usually for one breakdown call and focuses on the fault and fix; a job card covers any job including planned work. **Q: Does the customer need to sign?** A: Yes. A signature or a confirmed message is your proof for billing and disputes. **Q: Should I record readings?** A: Yes, where they apply: pressure, current, TDS, voltage. They show the equipment's condition over time. **Q: Can this be digital?** A: Yes. ServicePilot jobs hold checklists, photos, materials and signatures. ## Related articles [Technicians & Field Staff Work Completion Certificate Format for Service and Installation Jobs Work completion certificate format for service and installation jobs: work order, scope done, date, test results, customer acceptance and signatures.
