Service Report Recorder

This independent solution is a Windows desktop application for recording service work and exporting a clearer, professional service report.

Features

• Records customer details, report type, model number, completion state, notes, signatures, and line-item service work.
• Stores all data locally in SQLite as service-reports.db in the same folder as the running program.
• Searches saved reports by company, contact, report number, or model number.
• Exports the current report to either:
  • Excel .xlsx using a styled landscape A4 worksheet.
  • PDF .pdf using the same professional layout.

Running on Windows

1. Install the .NET 8 SDK.
2. Open the independent ServiceReportRecorder.sln solution in Visual Studio 2022 or newer. Do not use asp_modbus.sln for this app.
3. Set ServiceReportRecorder as the startup project.
4. Restore NuGet packages and run the project.

Report layout improvements

The generated report keeps the familiar service-report sections but improves readability with:

• A clean blue title/header area.
• Structured customer and report metadata blocks.
• A wider work-item table with clearer column names.
• Explicit Open/Closed status per work item.
• Separate summary, note, engineer, director, and comment areas.
• Print-friendly landscape A4 page setup for Excel and PDF.
