Formitize Unveils Job Dispatch Enhancements in New and Improved App - Published on 04/11/14

The makers of Formitize introduce new job dispatch enhancements to improve the experience of the paperless app's users in the office and on the field. The integrated Job Dispatcher has been enhanced with features to assist in communication and efficiencies. A colour scheme has been added to emphasize priority around the jobs dispatched. The Integrated Maps and Directions function was enhanced to simplify finding directions. Other features were added to make Formitize a better papperless app.

Smeaton Grange, Australia - The creators behind innovative paperless solution Formitize continue to enhance the solution with feature improvements as part of the ongoing development pipeline. Most notable among these new and improved functions are the job dispatch enhancements, including integrated maps and directions.

Job Dispatch Enhancements:
The integrated Job Dispatcher has been enhanced with some great new features to assist in communication and efficiencies between the office and field users. An instant Job Notification is now presented to Field Users on their mobile device when they have been sent a new Job via the Job Dispatcher. The notification alert can also provide details of the Job. The notification can also be used to send instant Short Messages to Field Users.

The Priority Settings and colours for jobs have also received a major makeover. Although Jobs are displayed by appointment time chronologically, a new colour scheme has been added to emphasize priority or importance around the Jobs dispatched. Colour coding enables priorities to be understood at a glance.

The new Integrated Maps and Directions function was further enhanced to simplify finding directions using the new Formitize app. When a Job is received by the Field User, it will now include a map with the Job Location marked and the suggested route from their current location to the Job. A simple click through to the Map will provide step by directions to the location.

Other Developments:
The Job Dispatch enhancements are not the only new features that were in the works. Here are other new features that are designed to enhance the Formitize app user�s experience:
* De-sensitizing Photo Function
When scrolling through a form, it was quite easy to inadvertently open the camera feature by accidentally touching it. The button is now de-sensitized so that it needs a more deliberate touch to activate the camera.
* Enhanced Time & Date Stamping Photos
Although this has always been possible to time and date stamp photos in relation to the form creation fields or by manual entry, time and date stamping is now automatically included and linked to the camera action itself. This provides much more specific time and date stamping and provides more accuracy for forms that for example are completed over an extended period of time.
* Enhanced GPS stamping
The �Fetch� option automatically grabs the GPS position and converts to street address to assist in the efficiency of completing forms. Due to client requests, the GPS co-ordinates are now included under the address and these co-ordinates can be auto-populated into reports where required as standard co-ordinates or OS Grid.
* Form Section Completion Indicators
All sections including Mandatory fields will be in red if not completed on submission and then these indicators will turn green on completion. This assists the User in quickly identifying missed mandatory fields and therefore ensures efficient form submission.
* Bulk Job Import and Dispatch Function
As part of the Jobs Function, you can now upload CSV or Excel Documents into the Job Dispatcher and Assign the jobs to Users instantly. The solution is extremely powerful and very flexible. The upload document does not need to be in a particular format making the solution incredibly flexible. Fields are simply dragged and dropped into the relevant Job and Form sections and thousands of Jobs can be uploaded and dispatched in seconds with all known information correctly populating into relevant sections in the Job and Form.
