GST and VAT Built In
Every job bills into a real GST sale for India or VAT sale for the UAE, with tax reports ready when filing time comes around.
WhatsApp Updates
Send job confirmations, ready-for-collection notices and payment reminders to clients over WhatsApp, straight from the job, no separate app.
Client History
Open any client to see every past callout, part fitted and amount billed, so repeat visits and follow-up quotes take seconds to prepare.
Warranty and Re-Jobs
Track which jobs are under warranty and log a re-visit against the original work, so callbacks stay organised and never get billed twice.
What it fixes on day one
Verbal quotes on the doorstep get disputed later — the customer remembers a lower number.
On-site parts-and-labour estimates with recorded customer approval before work starts, saved against the job card.
Materials walk off the van with no record, so jobs quietly lose money.
Parts and materials consumption draws down van or store stock, capturing real cost against each job at weighted-average.
You lose track of which small jobs are still open, scheduled, or already paid.
A clear job pipeline — booked, on the way, in progress, done, invoiced — shows every callout's status at a glance.
How a handyman & home repair runs on Alfa Decode
Handyman work is a dozen small trades in one van — a tap change here, a shelf mount there, a bit of painting, a door that won't close. The money leaks between the jobs, not on them: quotes given verbally and forgotten, materials pulled off the van with no record, a customer who swears you agreed a lower price, and three "quick jobs" you can't remember whether you invoiced. Alfa Decode runs on the Field-Service engine, so every callout becomes a job card the moment you take the call, with the task, the address, the fault and photos attached.
You raise a parts-and-labour estimate on site, get the customer's approval before you start, and move the job along a clear pipeline from booked to on the way, in progress, done and invoiced. Materials come off van or store stock so cost is captured, the customer gets WhatsApp updates and the invoice on their phone, and account customers sit on a running credit ledger you can chase.
- Every quote recorded and approved before work, so no price disputes
- Real material and labour cost captured on each job
- Whole day's jobs visible on one status pipeline

Handyman & Home Repair software — your questions
Does it work without internet on a job site?
Yes. Alfa Decode is local-first and runs on your own device with no internet needed. Log jobs, pull parts and raise invoices on site, then everything syncs to the cloud automatically once you are back online.
Can it handle GST in India and VAT in the UAE?
Yes. GST for India and VAT for the UAE are built in. Every job bills into a proper tax invoice, and the system produces the tax reports you need for filing, with no separate bookkeeping software.
Can I bill both parts and labour on one invoice?
Yes. Add labour lines and pull parts directly from your stock, and the system combines them into one accurate GST or VAT invoice. Parts are drawn down from your stock as each job consumes them.
How do I keep clients updated on a repair?
Send confirmations, ready-for-collection notices and payment reminders over WhatsApp directly from the job. Each client also has a full history of past callouts, parts fitted and amounts billed, ready whenever you need it.
Can I run it on my own server instead of a subscription?
Yes. Alfa Decode is available as Cloud on a subscription or On-Premise with a one-time licence plus AMC, from the same codebase. A white-label option is also available if you want it branded as your own.
Does it track warranty work and callbacks?
Yes. You can mark jobs under warranty and log a return visit against the original work. This keeps callbacks organised, shows what is still covered, and avoids charging a client twice for the same repair.
Can I quote a customer on their doorstep before I start?
Yes. You build a parts-and-labour estimate on the job card while you're there, show the customer the total, and record their approval. The agreed figure stays attached to the job, so there's no argument when you invoice.
Will it work in a basement or a new-build with no signal?
Yes. The app is offline-first, so you can log jobs, pull materials, add labour and take payment with no internet. Everything syncs to the cloud automatically once you're back in range.
I handle plumbing, electrics, painting and odd jobs — can it cope with all of them?
Yes. Each job card carries its own task and fault type, so a tap repair, a light fitting and a paint touch-up are logged distinctly. You track them all on one pipeline regardless of trade.
Can I bill regular landlords or letting agents on account?
Yes. Account customers sit on a running credit ledger with full job history, so you can invoice per visit and chase the outstanding balance, rather than collecting cash on every small callout.
