A service certificate is a compliance consumable certifying that a scheduled service was performed, displayed on the premises.
1 products · substrates: card stock, laminated
A document rather than a fixing - laminated, posted in view of the equipment, and certifying that a scheduled service was performed by someone qualified to perform it. It carries a signature, which the smaller forms usually cannot.
Choose a certificate where the record must name a person and their qualification, and where an inspector expects to read it standing in the room. Kitchen hood cleaning is the common case: the work is invisible once done, so the document is the only evidence.
Posting location. A certificate in a folder in the office satisfies nobody at the moment it is asked for, and a laminated sheet in a kitchen will be greasy within a week - the lamination is not a finish, it is what makes the document survivable.

A certificate is the artifact that leaves the equipment. It is the document handed to a client, filed by a building owner or produced for an authority, and it exists to be read by somebody who was not present when the work was done. That makes the specification different from everything else here: it is printed on stock that survives filing rather than weather, and its job is completeness rather than brevity. Choose one where the deliverable is the paperwork rather than a mark on the equipment, and where the recipient needs something they can put in a folder or attach to an email.
A certificate is a snapshot, and snapshots get copied, edited and reissued. The number of disputes that come down to two versions of the same certificate showing different dates is not small. Binding a certificate to a record means the document carries a reference back to an entry that cannot be edited after the fact, so anybody holding a copy can check it against the underlying record rather than against another copy. It also means a lost certificate is reissued from the record rather than reconstructed from memory, which is the situation where reconstructed dates quietly become wrong.
The record mechanics are the same for every artifact and are set out on how inspection records work.
Certificates are proofed with your imprint, layout and any required fields before payment. Production begins once you approve the layout. Each carries a reference that resolves to the underlying record, so a recipient can verify it without an account and without contacting you. In practice most customers order certificates in a single annual run alongside their tags, because the imprint is identical and the volumes are much smaller than the consumables they accompany.
The full sequence, including what the proof shows and how approval works, is on how ordering works.
Yes, by scanning the reference on it, without an account. That resolves to the underlying record, which is append only, so the certificate can be checked against something that cannot be quietly edited rather than against another copy of itself.
It is reissued from the record. This is the practical argument for binding the document to an entry rather than treating it as the primary artifact: a reconstructed certificate written from memory is where wrong dates enter the file.
No. You specify the fields and the wording, because what a certificate has to state depends on your trade, your jurisdiction and often your insurer. We produce the document to your specification and bind it to the record.
