Ongoing booking weekly dockets
Weekly client sign-off lets a client review and sign off a period’s daily dockets in one go. Workers still create and submit a daily docket for each shift. The client signs once for the review period instead of signing each daily docket on site, and all daily dockets will receive the same signature and timestamp.
Set up weekly client sign-off
Turn on Weekly client sign-off for an ongoing booking. You can change this setting after creating the ongoing booking.
The configuration `Ongoing weekly dockets calendar first day of week' determines when each review period begins. You can choose Sunday, Monday, or another day that suits your business, and the 7 day period will start from that day.
Tip: If you use weekly sign-off for most ongoing bookings, enable the configuration Default for weekly docket on new ongoing bookings.
Which booking holds the weekly docket?
A weekly docket is created against the last eligible booking in its review period. For example, if the period runs Monday to Sunday but bookings only run Monday to Friday, Friday is the sign-off booking.
Traffio recalculates the sign-off booking when a booking is added, moved, rescheduled, cancelled, deleted, or has its status changed. Changing the ongoing booking’s weekly sign-off setting, the calendar start day, or the sign-off interval can also recalculate it. Cancelled and Late Cancelled bookings cannot become the sign-off booking.
Which daily dockets are included?
The weekly review includes saved, active daily dockets from the same ongoing booking when the booking’s start time falls within the review period. It can include multiple dockets for one booking and saved dockets from cancelled bookings. Deleted dockets and dockets from other ongoing bookings are excluded.
Before a client can sign off, every booking in the period with one of these statuses must have at least one saved daily docket:
Locked
Conflict
GTG
Complete
Finalised
Late Cancelled
If a required booking has no saved docket, the web and mobile review screens will highlight this and prevent creation of the weekly docket. Create and submit the missing daily docket(s), then reopen the review screen to create the weekly docket.
Sign off in the mobile app
Workers submit daily dockets as usual throughout the period. On the final eligible booking, the app prompts for weekly client sign-off in the Forms tab of that booking.
Step 1: Dockets this week
The first screen lists the period’s bookings by date and shows the status of their daily dockets. A worker can open a docket from this list.
A booking that needs a docket but does not have one is shown as missing. The worker can continue only when every required booking has a saved daily docket. Draft dockets still on the device are not included in the sign-off.
Step 2: Review & sign off
The next screen shows each worker’s hours across the period. The client representative reviews the hours, enters their name, and signs. Submitting the weekly docket applies the client sign-off to all saved daily dockets in that review.
Review a weekly docket in the web app
Go to Bookings > Ongoing Calendar. The Ongoing Booking Calendar is a schedule view that groups bookings by ongoing booking. It helps office staff see the bookings in each review period and find the booking selected for weekly sign-off.
Select the sign-off booking, then click Weekly docket. This opens the Weekly Docket Review, which shows:
The dates covered by the review
Each worker’s daily docket entries and hours
The worker’s total hours for the period
Any required bookings that are missing a daily docket
You can select a booking with a missing docket in the warning to open it and create a daily docket. Check the review before requesting client sign-off.
Request remote client sign-off
If the client cannot sign on site, office staff can send a sign-off request from the web review. From the weekly docket review screen shown above, click Request client sign-off. Traffio queues a separate email for each selected contact. The email contains a link to a browser page where the contact can review the period’s hours and confirm sign-off. The request is delivered asynchronously, so the web app’s confirmation means the emails have been queued; they may not have arrived yet.
Check sign-off status
You can check individual daily docket sign off from the following areas:
In Bookings > Archive, use the Office signed off and Client signed off columns to check daily docket progress for an individual booking.
Bookings > Dockets view for individual daily dockets.
From the Dockets tab in an individual booking.
The Ongoing Booking Calendar shows the weekly docket sign-off status on the period’s final booking:
Find saved weekly dockets
Go to Bookings > Ongoing, open the ongoing booking, then click Weekly Dockets in its detail view. This tab lists the weekly dockets already created for that ongoing booking.
Open a saved weekly docket to see the daily dockets linked to it, the client sign-off details, and when the record was created or updated.
The Ongoing Calendar lets you review the current period and request sign-off. The Weekly Dockets tab lets you inspect records that have already been created.
When should I resend a weekly docket?
Resend a weekly docket if a daily docket is added to or removed from its review period after you sent the request. This includes when a booking in the period is moved to another ongoing booking series and its dockets are moved with it. Open the weekly review again to check the current docket list, then send the request again. The review shows the current dockets; the saved request keeps its earlier docket list until it is resent.
The sign-off booking has not changed
Resending updates the existing weekly docket and its links to daily dockets. It clears the weekly docket’s previous client acceptance so the client can sign the revised review.
The linked daily dockets keep their previous sign-off details until the client signs again. The new sign-off then updates the linked daily dockets with the new client acceptance details.
The sign-off booking has changed
If the former final booking is cancelled, for example, another booking may become the period’s sign-off booking. Sending from the new booking creates a new weekly docket for that period. The earlier request and its sign-off are not automatically transferred to the new booking, so check the earlier saved weekly docket separately.
FAQ
My period starts on Monday, but bookings only run Monday to Friday. When is sign-off due?
Friday is the final eligible booking in that Monday-to-Sunday period. The app prompts for weekly sign-off on Friday.
What if the final booking is cancelled?
These examples assume a Monday-to-Sunday period with a booking every day:
Sunday is cancelled before Saturday’s shift: Saturday becomes the final eligible booking, and the app prompts for sign-off then.
Sunday is cancelled during Saturday’s shift: Saturday becomes the final eligible booking. Workers need to sync the app to see the updated prompt.
Sunday is cancelled after Saturday’s shift: Saturday is still marked as the final eligible booking. Since workers are no longer on site, office staff can send a remote sign-off request from the web app.
What if one booking has multiple daily dockets?
Each saved daily docket remains separate and is included in the weekly sign-off. The review shows the individual entries and adds their worked hours into the worker’s total for the period.
