Trade Notes
A notebook built into Sortinal for quick field reference — wiring diagrams, install tips, supplier contacts, or anything your team needs to look up on-site.
Creating a note
Go to Settings → Trade Notes (or from the reference section) and tap + New Note. Each note has:
- Title — what it's about
- Content — rich text with formatting
- Category — organise by topic (electrical, refrigerant, installation, etc.)
Use cases
- Wiring diagrams — quick reference for common isolator setups
- Refrigerant charge tables — how much R32/R410A for different pipe lengths
- Install checklists — personal reminders beyond the formal checklist templates
- Supplier info — who to call for specific parts, account numbers
Sharing
Trade notes are shared across your business — every team member can see them. Great for building up a team knowledge base over time.
Tips
- Add notes as you learn things on-site — if you looked it up once, write it down
- Use categories to keep things findable as the list grows
- New techs on the team can read through the notes to get up to speed fast
