*You should see the Main Menu screen

Prior to testing on the app, assign some offline inspections in Accela, to the test permit.

  • In Accela these are still referred to as Offline Inspections, we have not changed the name there yet.

Create a New Field Report:

  1. Tap the button to begin the step-by-step process

What is a Field Report? 

  • A Field Report is the same as an Offline Inspection.
  • We changed the name due to people becoming confused or not liking the word Offline.
  • It’s not technically an inspection, rather a report comprised of photos, videos, and comments taken from the inspection job site and sent to the Inspector, hence the name Field Report.
