Collection and delivery slips

Both carry the facility logo, or Organisation name on slips from Settings, or the facility name. Both carry Staff name, and Collection code beside it for a request held at the counter.

When printed from a bag, Garments — tick each one as it goes in the bag lists each line. Up to 10 lines print; the rest show as +<n> more lines — see the request in ThreadCount.

Slip Fields Signature
Uniform ready for collection Ward / Department, Date received, PO / Order no., Garments, Staff notified, Date notified Collected by (signature), Date collected
Uniform ward delivery Ward / Department, Deliver to, Garments, PO / Order no., Date received, Requested by, Delivered by, Date / time Received on ward by (name + sign)

The footer is Collection slip footer or Delivery slip footer from Settings.

What each screen fills in:

  • Counter. The stock and pre-loved lines, marked (pre-loved) where they are; ordered-in lines are left off. Requested by is the staff number and Delivered by is the coordinator named in Settings. The buttons work only when the bag could be recorded.
  • Requests. The approved lines, with the cut named unless unisex. PO / Order no. is the request code. A request on the ward round prints a delivery slip, any other a collection slip. A declined request has no slip.
  • Today. Name, ward, garment count, the order reference, date received, and a Phone tick once contacted. No garment list.

Order form

The form the manager signs. It prints three ways:

  • From a staff record, with the person's details filled in and blank garment rows.
  • From a request on Requests, with the garments written on and declined lines left off. A request still waiting prints with the manager's block blank.
  • From a recorded approval, as a copy. It prints the date, sets, FTE and manager's name as signed. Every other field prints blank, and Signature (on the signed sheet) stays empty.

It has a Staff member signature line, a Manager / financial delegate approval block with signature, position and date, and a block for the linen room: date ordered, PO number, value, invoice number, stock received, date collected and staff signature. See Manager approvals.

Credit slip, hand-in receipt and access slip

  • Credit slip. Uniform Credit, the sets left on one approval (2 of 5 sets remaining), the person, who approved it and when, the FTE and notes. It tells the person to bring the slip or their payroll number to collect the rest.
  • Hand-in receipt. Each garment, size, quantity and condition, unlaundered where marked, how many went to the pre-loved pool and to rag disposal, and whether the allowance was credited (Exchanges and returns).
  • Access slip. The one-time code a person uses to claim their staff-app account, with the steps (Staff app).

Signatures

ThreadCount does not read ink. What it records:

Where What is recorded By
An issue The signed tick You, in the issue history, after the slip is signed
A delivery on Delivery rounds The drawn signature as an image, the receiver's name, and the signed tick on the issues The receiver, on screen
A request bag on the ward round The signer's name, role and time; no image The ward desk, in the staff app
A manager's approval A photo of the signed order form, if taken You, when recording it

Today's Receipts not yet signed counts issues without the tick that have not been returned or handed in.

How drawn signatures and photos are stored and removed is on Delivery rounds.

In plain terms Paper carries the signature; ThreadCount carries a tick, a name, or a picture of the paper.
