Every job's warranty, every defect, in one countdown board
Track every job's warranty period and the defects reported against it - a warranty-status board shows every job's countdown (active, expiring soon, or expired) alongside its open defect count, while a defect log takes each one from report through to resolution.
Every job shown with its warranty countdown - active, expiring soon (within a configurable window), or expired - so nothing quietly runs out unnoticed.
Log a defect with a target fix date, and any still-open defect past that date reads live as overdue - no manual status change needed to catch it slipping.
Reported, acknowledged, in progress, resolved or disputed - move a defect through its whole life, with the resolved date and days-to-resolve recorded automatically.
Set a handover date and a warranty period in months and the exact end date is worked out for you, month-length differences and all - no manual date arithmetic.
Filter jobs by warranty status, and defects by job or status, so a busy portfolio of handovers never turns into an unmanageable single list.
Every job and defect record is stored on your own device - no server dependency for day-to-day use, just the shared Metre2 account for sign-in.
Export jobs and defects to CSV, export every job's warranty end date to a calendar file (.ics), export a full PDF report or print it directly, and import a batch of jobs from a CSV file - handy when moving from a spreadsheet or another system.
An optional estimated fix cost per defect rolls up into a per-job total and a portfolio- wide outstanding-cost figure, and a recent activity feed keeps the latest jobs and defect updates in view without digging through tables.
PlanRadar is a well-known construction and real estate defect/snagging platform built around mobile site workflows and BIM. It's a broader, per-user field tool - here's how a focused, one-off desktop tracker compares for a business that mainly needs warranty countdowns and a defect log per job, not on-site ticketing.

No - it only concerns itself with defects reported after handover, during the warranty period, against a job that has a warranty end date.
No - beyond an optional estimated fix cost per defect, there's no money or percentages in it at all. It's purely defect records and warranty dates.
You set a handover date and a warranty period in months for each job, and the app calculates the exact end date - handling month-length differences (like adding 12 months to 31 January) correctly.
Any defect that's still open (reported, acknowledged, or in progress) whose target fix date has passed. It's calculated live from today's date, not set manually, so you never forget to flag one.
Yes - export your jobs and defects to CSV for a spreadsheet, export every job's warranty end date to a calendar file (.ics) for Outlook or Google Calendar, or export a full PDF report and print it directly. You can also import a batch of jobs from a CSV file.
Yes - it uses the same shared Metre2 account as Vector, Forma and every other Keystone app. Sign in once and it works everywhere.
