QUESTIONS TO TEST
1. Property and service history
Ask: Does each service visit attach to the correct property, pest and treatment record?
Demonstrate: Create two properties for one customer. Complete a recurring visit at one and confirm the other property’s records stay separate.
Observed result:
Follow-up:

2. Recurring schedule exceptions
Ask: Can staff skip or reschedule a visit without losing the next due date?
Demonstrate: Skip a weather-delayed visit and move it to another route. Verify the contract cadence, next service date and customer notice.
Observed result:
Follow-up:

3. Field documentation
Ask: Can technicians capture required application details and inspection notes in the field?
Demonstrate: Complete a service with product, quantity, target pest and customer instruction fields. Verify required values and manager review.
Observed result:
Follow-up:

4. Route and qualification
Ask: Can routes account for technician skills, access windows and route capacity?
Demonstrate: Move a specialized inspection to another technician and route. Check qualification, arrival window and service record ownership.
Observed result:
Follow-up:

DEMO SCENARIO (SYNTHETIC)
Work a weather delay without losing service history
1. Create a recurring residential account with two properties, distinct pest histories, access notes and a future service date.
2. Delay one property after weather closes the route. Reschedule it with a qualified technician while preserving the service interval and customer communication.
3. Record a treatment and an inspection on separate properties. Confirm technician, product, application details and notes attach to the right site.
4. Review renewal status, route completion and service history. Check what supervisors can correct and whether edits remain auditable.

MIGRATION
Plan a controlled data move
Import customers and site addresses as separate records, active agreements, service frequencies, next due dates, product and treatment history, open balances, technician credentials and route assignments. Reconcile the next several weeks of visits and required records before dispatching from the new system.

A POSSIBLE FIRST BUILD
Software can help retain operational records, but it does not determine whether a treatment or application is legally appropriate. Confirm current label, licensing, reporting and retention requirements with relevant authorities and your qualified staff; verify record access and correction logs.
