Forms

The form is the principal means of capturing data associated with an asset or activity. The form might be required to capture data associated with an asset or activity on the work order, such as repair, investigation, inspection, or condition assessment. The types of data that can be captured in the form include: selections from a drop-down list, free text, a location, a signature, or the results of a barcode scan.

On an Android device, the form may be configured to show a summary page, particularly long data collection forms with multiple sections. The summary shows each of the sections and how many fields are available in each section to complete. This gives you an overview of the form, and enables you to quickly navigate between sections.

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) must be completed, and you can also attach a photo and signature if required.

Every completed work order requires at least one form to be completed, depending on the app.

On mapper apps, you can delete data collection forms if necessary. Tap the FORMS tab and next to the asset, tap the three dots and then tap Delete:
