How fundis can track jobs, materials and customer payments
A fundi may work on repairs, construction, electrical work, plumbing, welding, carpentry, painting or general maintenance. Each job may involve labour, materials, transport and customer payments.
Some customers pay a deposit, some pay after the job, and some delay payment. Materials may be bought from different suppliers and paid by Cash or M-PESA.
Good records help a fundi know which jobs are profitable and which customers still owe money.
What a fundi should track
- Customer name.
- Job description.
- Deposit paid.
- Materials bought.
- Transport costs.
- Labour charge.
- Balance due.
- Payment method.
Example
- A customer pays KSh 5,000 deposit for a repair job. Materials cost KSh 3,200 and transport costs KSh 500. If the final price is KSh 9,000, the fundi needs to track the remaining balance and actual profit.
