The records every engagement leaves behind
These are the records a Fuchs & Agents engagement leaves behind: an approval log, a stop-and-flag draft, a leak-test report and a before-and-after time log, shown on a fictional business.
We have no client results to publish yet, and we won't invent any. Each example below uses a made-up business so no real customer data appears. To work with the formats yourself, see the demos.
Fictional business throughout: "Sample Landscaping Co." and its owner "Pat Example" do not exist. The rows below show the format of each record. They are not output from a client system and not a measured result.
Approval log
Every draft has a named approver, and every decision is a row. Nothing goes out without one.
| Time | Item | Drafted by | Checked by | Approver | Decision |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 08:02 | Quote, back-yard irrigation repair | Drafting agent | Checking agent | Pat Example | Approved with one edit (crew size) |
| 08:05 | Payment reminder, invoice 1042 | Drafting agent | Checking agent | Pat Example | Approved as drafted |
| 08:06 | Payment reminder, invoice 1043 | Drafting agent | Checking agent | Pat Example | Blocked: open flag (see below) |
| 08:11 | Reply to a customer review | Drafting agent | Checking agent | Pat Example | Sent back: "too formal, shorten" |
A draft that refused to guess
The job notes for invoice 1043 have no total. Instead of estimating one, the draft marks the gap, and the open flag blocks approval until a person fills it in.
Draft payment reminder (fictional)
Hi Jordan, a friendly reminder that invoice 1043 for the hedge trimming on the 14th is now due. The amount is AMOUNT UNKNOWN. You can pay by the usual method. Thanks, Pat
OPEN FLAG Invoice total missing from the job notes. Approval blocked until a person enters it.
Leak-test report format
Before a release, a unique marker is planted in one client's workspace and searched for from every other workspace. The release ships only when every planted marker is caught. This is what each row of the report records.
| Release | Planted in | Searched from | Marker | Expected | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Release tag | Workspace A | Workspace B | a unique string | Not found from B | Recorded by the run, pass or fail |
The before-and-after time log
Small-business clients keep a simple log: the task, the minutes it took before, the minutes it takes now with an agent's draft and their approval. With written permission, those logs are the only numbers we'll ever quote, and we'll report the median, not the best case.
