New features in 2024.06
Digital checklists
With this version, we are replacing the previous inspection plans with digital checklists and expanding the inspection options.
– Extended answer options: In addition to yes/no questions, specific values can now also be recorded.
– Unplanned execution: Checklists can now be flexibly executed unplanned.
– Flexible use: Checklists can be used without changing the status of the work equipment, ideal for simple, unplanned quality checks.
– Optional questions: Checklists can now also contain optional questions.
– Status-influencing questions: Determine which questions can influence the status of a work equipment.
– Chapter structure: Divide checklists into different chapters for a better structure.
– Image attachments: Add images to the checklists to visualize inspections.
The “Digital Checklist” enables you to carry out and document your inspections more precisely and flexibly.
Global search in the mobile app
The search functions in our mobile app have been improved with the introduction of the global search.
– Simplified search: Work equipment can now be searched for without first selecting a work equipment group.
– Advanced search parameters: Optionally, additional search parameters can be used to refine the search.
This function makes it easier to find work equipment and improves the efficiency of your inspection processes.
