JOB WALK-THROUGH DOCUMENTER

We're pretty excited about this new feature (thank you Clear Path for the idea)!

It's simple but can help prevent some of those "they-said, you-said" disputes that can cost you money and downtime.

In a nutshell, for any job in Equappment you're able to create a Job Walk-Through where you can record notes (with option to voice-to-text) of what you and another party agreed upon, or issues that were identified.


Here's how it works ...

  • Start a new Walk Through in the Job you're on

  • Time/date stamp added automatically

  • Enter the name and company of the other parties with you

  • Start taking notes via typing or voice-to-text

  • Snap photos to further document the walk through

  • Both you and the other parties agree and sign-off on the walk through note with a digital signature

  • Walk-through report is automatically saved as a PDF report in the app and can be emailed as needed

  • Create as many Walk Throughs for a job as you need

 

BORE LOGGER IMPROVEMENTS
Easily log a bore in Equappment with all the important data
  • Station #'s (start and end) can now be added to a bore and are included in the report

  • Bore log entries now include a field for Distance from Edge of Pavement (EOP)

  • EOP entries are included with bore log report and profile export

  • Distance Bored is automatically calculated and included with each bore log entry

  • Creating a Bore automatically creates a Task for Pilot Bore in Task Management section

  • Time log entry for bore is created once bore is completed

  • Bore Log Report and Bore Profile Export can now be saved to Job Documents section

 

JOB PHOTO UPDATES
Upload multiple job site photos and write captions for them
  • Upload multiple Job Photos at one time,

  • Add and change photo captions as needed

  • Photos you upload into app now have a much higher resolution, allowing you to zoom in on the details

  • Folders for organizing job photos now reflect the date a photo was last uploaded

  • User name and date of upload are saved with photos

 

LOCATE TICKET MANAGEMENT UPDATES
Manage all your utility project locate tickets within Equappment.
  • Locate Tickets can now have a status of "Resubmitted" at any, rather than having to wait for the ticket status to change to "expired"

  • Most current locate ticket is displayed at the top of the list with options to filter and sort however you want

  • Ticket Expiration Date can be changed as need, instead of having to change status first

  • Ticket Revision # is displayed on the ticket list view as well as in the ticket detail view


 

TASK MANAGEMENT UPDATES
Manage all the tasks for utility construction projects
  • New Task Types added to the Task Management section:

    • tracer wire installation

    • warning tape installation

    • flower box installation

    • traffic control set up

    • moling (piercing tool)

  • Easier to find a task - just start typing the letters and the tasks will display


 

A FEW OTHER IMPROVEMENTS WORTH MENTIONING...
  • Job Progress Report can now be exported as a spreadsheet making it easier to manipulate operational data and use with other software

  • Multiple documents can be uploaded into Job Documents at one time

  • Date on Job Document folder now reflects the last time a document was uploaded into the folder

  • "Other Info" field added into Crewmember and Client records to keep track of things like hire date, birthday, etc.

  • Added filters to make it easier to find equipment to add to a job

  • List View of all your Jobs is now ordered by newest job at the top
