Collection and delivery slips

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

When garments are passed, Garments — tick each one as it goes in the bag lists them. 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 Facility.

What each screen fills in:

  • Counter. The shelf and pre-loved lines in the pickup, marked (pre-loved) where they are; Order in lines are left off. The button works only when the pickup could be recorded and has a shelf or pre-loved line.
  • Request queue. 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 waiting or declined request has no slip.
  • Today. Name, ward, garment count, the order reference, date received, and a Phone tick once called. No garment list.

Order form

The form the manager signs. It prints three ways:

  • From Counter or Print a new one on the Uniform tab, with the person's details and blank garment rows.
  • From Print order form in the request queue, or Print the form on a request row under Previous order forms, with the garments written on. A request still waiting prints with the manager's block blank.
  • From Print the form on a recorded approval, as a copy. It prints what was recorded, and Signature (on the signed sheet) stays empty.

It has a Staff member signature line, a Manager / financial delegate approval block, and a block for the linen room including Date ordered, PO number, Invoice number, Stock received and Date collected. 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. On Counter it prints the open approval.
  • 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. Print the slip after Generate a code: 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, 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

The signed tick is Mark signed or Signed under Holding in the counter's Return and Hand in modes, and signed or not signed on a person's Uniform and History tabs.

Today's month-end panel shows <n> receipts to sign when any issue lacks the tick, with Chase, which opens People filtered to Receipts to sign.

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.
