Print a QR label per asset
Stick it on the compressor, the hood, the panel, the trailer. Scanning opens that asset's record: history, reminders, documents, and the button to add a new entry.
Equipment repair log
An equipment repair log for people who maintain real machines.
Compressors, tanks, hoods, dock doors, pumps, vans, benches, safety equipment. FixLog gives each one an asset record with its IDs, warranty, documents, service history, and a printable QR label so the record opens while you are standing in front of the machine.
Why equipment records go stale
The record is in the office. The equipment is not.
Maintenance notes get written down when someone gets back to a desk, which usually means they get written down later, or not at all. Scanning a label on the machine removes that gap.
Useful when the name is not obvious
In an equipment room with four similar units, "which one is Brite Tank #1" is a real question. The label answers it, which matters most for whoever is covering a shift.
The asset record
The details you only want to look up once.
Every asset holds name, asset ID, status, place, location, manufacturer, model number, serial number, vendor, purchase date, purchase cost, replacement cost, notes, warranty details with an attached PDF, and custom fields for whatever your equipment needs — capacity, voltage, filter size, tag number.

Asset ID, manufacturer, model and serial numbers, vendor, costs, warranty, and custom fields.
A completed record
What to write after the work is done.
This fictional workshop example shows the information worth keeping. The amounts and dates are illustrative, not a repair recommendation or customer result.

Return to the service history when the same issue appears, review costs over time, and use recurring reminders for the next scheduled task. See which fields to include in your log.
Built for operations with more than one room.
Spaces keep each site's equipment records separate. Locations and groups organise assets inside a Space, so a tank room, a cellar, and a rear dock do not turn into one long list.
Templates to start from
A 263-asset template library covers common equipment and facility categories with suggested reminders and fields.
Reports for operations
Operations Maintenance Report, Warranty Countdown, Handoff Report, CSV export, and printable QR labels.
Cost and replacement exposure
Purchase cost and replacement cost across the asset list show what it would take to replace what you own. See cost tracking.
What FixLog is not: there are no user accounts, seats, or logins, and no cloud dashboard to administer. If you need multi-technician work-order assignment and permissions, you need a CMMS. If you need dependable equipment records without that overhead, see FixLog as a CMMS alternative.
Label the equipment, keep the record
