SkyCatsWork User Guide
A practical guide to clients, scheduling, services, materials, tasks, payments and everyday work in SkyCatsWork.
SkyCatsWork is a local-first work organizer for solo professionals. It brings together clients, schedule, services, materials and equipment, tasks, payments, statistics and work history in one place.
No account is required for the core workflow. Your working data is stored locally on your device, and you can create local backup files whenever you need them.
Getting Started
Set up SkyCatsWork for your work.
Choose your professional role
Next, choose the professional role that best matches your work.
The selected role adapts professional terminology throughout the app. SkyCatsWork can be used by trainers, teachers, caregivers, massage therapists, private doctors, beauty and care specialists, and other solo professionals.
The role can also be changed later in Settings.
Home
The daily overview
The Home screen is your daily overview.
It provides quick access to the main parts of SkyCatsWork and shows useful information about today's work and current tasks.
From here you can quickly move to Clients, Schedule, Tasks, Materials, Statistics and other working areas.
Clients
Keep practical client information close to the work.
Client list
The Clients section keeps your customer information in one place.
Use the search field to quickly find a client. The list is designed for everyday access rather than as a complex CRM system.
Client details
A client record can contain contact details, address, messenger information, goals or requests, important limitations and personal working notes.
This information can be reused when creating future jobs for the same client.
Services
Your own reusable service catalog
SkyCatsWork does not force you to use a predefined profession-specific service catalog.
Create your own reusable services based on the way you actually work. A service can later be selected when creating a job, while free-text services can also be entered when needed.
Schedule
Plan and review work day by day.
Schedule is the central place for planning and reviewing your work.
Each job has its own date, time, client, service, status and payment state.
Job completion is manual: a job does not become Completed simply because its scheduled time has passed.
Completed work
Previous days make it easy to review completed work and distinguish paid jobs from completed jobs that still have an outstanding payment.
Today's work
A single day can contain jobs in different stages. Planned, Confirmed and Completed statuses make it easy to see what has happened and what still needs attention.
Upcoming work
Future days show upcoming planned and confirmed work, helping you prepare before the appointment or job begins.
Job details
Edit an individual job
Open a job to review or edit its details.
A job can include the client, service, date, start time, duration, location, status, payment state, price, notes and other working information.
If you make changes and try to leave without saving them, SkyCatsWork warns you about unsaved changes.
Service contents
Break work into operations
A service can be broken down into individual work operations.
This is useful when one client service consists of several stages. Each operation can have its own price and can also have materials assigned to it.
The complete service therefore reflects how the work is actually performed rather than being only a single title and price.
Materials and equipment
Build a reusable catalog
Keep reusable materials and equipment in your personal catalog.
Consumable materials and reusable equipment can both be included. Equipment is handled separately from consumable costs so that reusable tools are not incorrectly counted as materials that are used up on every job.
Preparation for a job
Know what to buy and take
Materials and equipment can be assigned to a specific job and tracked as part of preparation.
Preparation states help answer practical questions before you leave for work:
- Buy
- something still needs to be purchased.
- Take
- something needs to be taken with you.
- Taken
- the item has already been prepared.
This turns each job into a practical preparation checklist as well as a calendar entry.
Tasks
Keep reminders and preparation visible
Tasks keeps ordinary work reminders and preparation items together.
Tasks are organized by urgency and date, including overdue items, today's tasks, tomorrow's tasks and tasks without a specific date.
This makes it easy to see what needs attention without searching through individual jobs.
Statistics and payments
Review work and outstanding payments
Statistics provides an overview of your work for the selected period.
You can review job statuses, completed work, payments, revenue, expenses and outstanding amounts.
Work status and payment status are tracked separately. This means a job can correctly remain Completed while still being marked unpaid.
Client history
See what was done before
Each client has a history of previous services.
This makes it easy to review what was done previously and check payment information before the next appointment.
Completed but unpaid services remain visible as outstanding payments.
Backup and restore
Keep local backups
SkyCatsWork stores its working data locally on your device.
Use the Backup and Restore tools to create a backup file, save or share it, and restore your data later.
Creating regular backups is recommended, especially before moving to another device or making major changes to your data.
Settings
Adapt SkyCatsWork to your workflow
Settings lets you adapt SkyCatsWork to the way you work.
Available options include language, professional role, theme, text size, currency and additional tools.
Changing the professional role changes terminology in the interface without deleting your existing clients, jobs or other working data.
