Finished work deserves more than a scattered photo thread. AuditIt's Job completion template connects scope, work-area views, and completion checks. Start ready-made, tailor the audit workflow template, or build your own from scratch.

What this workflow helps you record

The Job completion starter workflow links what was requested, what the site looked like before work, what was delivered, and what remains outstanding.

This workflow is for contractors, trades, project supervisors, facilities teams, and field staff closing out defined work orders.

Choose the right workflow shape

A before-and-after workflow fits jobs where visible conditions change. The first stage establishes context and the second records the delivered state.

Set up the audit

  1. Select the Job completion starter workflow.
  2. Confirm the work order, site address, customer, and asset context.
  3. Preview scope, required work-area photos, checks, and sign-off fields.
  4. Record the starting state, complete the work, then capture closeout.

Use the key fields

Scope of work

Summarize the agreed work in clear language that the field team and reviewer can both follow.

Work area

Capture repeatable wide and detail views that show the relevant area before and after work.

Completion checks

Mark each applicable check from direct observation and explain any item that is not complete.

Review the result

Compare scope and work-area evidence, verify completion checks, and make outstanding items explicit before sending the closeout record.

Start with a workflow that fits

AuditIt includes ready-made audit workflow templates. Use one as provided, tailor it to your process, or build your own workflow from scratch.

Direct answers

Frequently asked questions

Can the workflow include client acknowledgement?

Yes. Add the acknowledgement needed by your process, while keeping approval roles and contract terms separate.

What if work is only partly complete?

Record the current state and list outstanding items clearly instead of marking the audit complete prematurely.

Can different trades use different checks?

Yes. Tailor copies of the starter workflow for the evidence and checks required by each service line.
