Do you keep your printed worklists after a week's work? Or throw them away. Do the inland revenue want to see them as evidence of your work at some point?
-
I keep mine for 3 months in case there is a query on payment or change to the clean etc..
as for the tax man......

I keep mine too.
I print it off the night before, mark confirmations, highlight when done, put the amount and method paid and write any notes or alterations on there. Then they go into a box file for my records.
As for the tax man I'm not sure...
-
Burn them then? Is there a requirement in law to keep them for six years?
-
I mean, it's only a list of what you intend to do, and in some respects this gets done, but it's not set in stone. You might do other things along the way.

I use george, so technically my work lists are all on there. I update it each day, so if the taxman wanted to have records, its there to see.
-
Why would you need to keep them, havent any of you got george or wcp.
-
I have about six years worth of George-printed worklists, and they only take up space
, so it's the incincerator for them, I think.

Eat, poo, shred, burn and eat once more before poo then shred and burn and spread on roses.

why do you need to print worksheets?ive only been using george for a few months but what i do is
look at what work is due the night before,next day i work through it the best i can.
end of working day tick off on george what work i did and who paid and that days date if ive rescheduled due to weather etc.
end of week print up a debt list for collecting and finance report for that week.simple!
i think this works very well for me as a one man band as it saves keep printing worksheets out.i know who pays me and what work i do throughout the day as long as i update as soon as i get home.george does the rest!
keep it simple! ;)
george is really easy to use once youve inputted all your custys and price/frequency

Why print worksheets?
So you have all the info you need for your days work, address, name, price, notes ect.
-
Are you saying print them? Or don't print them? How do you know what it is to do each day?
???
-
i already know them andy!price/whats due/if they owe 2 weeks/address/etc.i just wait til i get home to sort what ive cleaned/whos paid now,rather than mess around with worksheets!works well for me! ;)
if its a commercial job i print out invoice the night before ready for the next day.

I print mine off the spreadsheet at the end of each year and keep them for at least the required 7 years (6 years + the one currently being worked). In reality, I tend to keep them for a decade. I've just scrapped anything that doesn't belong in this century and have a big box of stuff to be shredded.
