Using Common Data

Using Common Data

Any images displayed are representative only and may differ depending on the version being used.

Overview

Common data is added to a Work Package because it contains information that is used to fill in fields on each inspection done in that Work Package, or because there is supplementary information to show in the App that does not go into the Forms or Reports (e.g. Health and Safety contacts)


Work Package Settings...

Click on the 'Settings' on your Work Package you will see the Common Data section.

This shows the 'Field Label' on the left and the information for that label on the right.


What you see in 'Edit' mode on the Work Package

In edit mode you will see all the text fields from your inspection template that are available to be used as Common Data. If you use those fields and give them a value, then each inspection will have that field filled in when it is created. Some fields should not be used as they are specific to that inspection (e.g. 'Inspection Reference', and are not common across all inspections.


Reorder the Common Data

Click on and drag the 'handles' on the entries to set the order you want.



Add new information

You can add new information, however this will not be used to fill in fields on the inspections as you have added it, and not chosen one of the form fields. e.g. this could be specific information about this job that you would like staff to be aware of.
