Puppy

Puppy is a lightweight yet powerful CRM built for Smart-Tech Enterprise to streamline client service tracking and billing. It ensures that when Smart-Tech employees visit client locations, their work hours are accurately recorded, and billing is automated. With GeoFencing integration, Puppy provides real-time tracking, ensuring employees log their hours within designated work zones.

The core objective of Puppy is to eliminate manual timekeeping, prevent billing discrepancies, and offer seamless job tracking for both employees and administrators.

Technical Stack:

• Admin Panel: CodeIgniter (PHP Framework) – Lightweight and efficient for backend operations.
• Mobile App: Flutter – Cross-platform mobile application (Android & iOS).
• GeoFencing & Location Tracking: Google APIs – Ensures employees are within client locations when logging time.

Key Features & Modules:

Mobile App (For Employees)

Designed for Smart-Tech field employees, the mobile app allows them to manage job assignments, track their working hours, and log visit details efficiently.

1. Job Management

   • View upcoming, ongoing, and completed jobs.
   • Start and stop time tracking with a single tap.
   • Enter visit reason and job description before starting work.

2. Work Records & Logs

   • Maintain detailed logs of job duration, location, and work notes.
   • Submit real-time job updates to the admin panel.
   • Automatically sync with the backend for accurate timekeeping.

3. Attendance & GeoFencing

   • GeoFencing ensures employees can only log time when they are at the client location.
   • Live location tracking for better employee accountability.
   • Automated attendance tracking based on job check-ins and check-outs.

The web-based CodeIgniter admin panel gives Smart-Tech administrators full control over job assignments, employee tracking, and client billing.
