General User Interface
After the successful login, you will be redirected to the user area of the Aptean Equipment Mobile Service app. This area is divided into the Service Orders, Time Records and Overview tabs at the bottom of the screen. The Service Orders tab is displayed by default when you open the app. Tap on the desired tab to access it.
'Service Orders' Tab
In the Service Orders tab, all orders assigned to you are displayed as tiles. A service order tile contains the following information:
- Order Status
- Customer
- Service Items
- Order Period
- Service Order Number
- Serial Number
- Order Description
- Synchronization Status
You can use the Today, Week, and Month buttons to filter service orders by assignment date. If you tap on the magnifying glass icon in the top right of the screen, a search field opens.
Tapping on the rocket icon in the bottom right section of the screen allows you to add a New Order or to Start Navigation for route planning. For more information on these two functions, click
here.
When you tap on a service order tile, a detailed view of the respective order is displayed, divided into the Overview and Worksheet tabs. How to use these tabs for processing orders is described under
Service Orders.
'Time Records' Tab
The Time Records tab displays your working and travel times. A live timer for time tracking as well as the Synchronize button are displayed in the top section of the screen. With this button, you can
synchronize time records with our ERP solution.
Über die Schaltfläche mit Datumsanzeige können Sie im Kalender nach einem bestimmten Datum filtern. Es werden dann alle erfassten Zeiten des ausgewählten Datums in chronologischer Reihenfolge angezeigt. Mit den Pfeilen links und rechts der Schaltfläche können Sie zum jeweils vorherigen bzw. nachfolgenden Datum wechseln. Zudem haben Sie die Möglichkeit, über das Dropdown-Menü Filter nach allen Zeiten, nicht freigegebenen, nicht synchronisierten oder fehlerhaften Zeiten zu filtern.
The time record with the earliest time stamp for the selected date is marked as the start of work with the clock in indicator. The time record with the latest time stamp is marked as the end of work with the clock out indicator. A red indicator shows that time is currently being recorded. Completed time records are marked with a cloud icon that indicates their synchronization status. You can find more information on icons and indicators here. How to use this tab for time tracking is described in the
Time Records chapter.
'Overview' Tab
The Overview tab displays an overview of your working hours, your orders, and your service vehicle. Tapping on the gear icon in the top right corner of the screen will take you to the Settings page, where you can change settings within the app and view further information about the app.
Analogously to the Time Records tab, a live timer for time tracking is displayed next to a button in the top section of the screen. Tapping on this button ends the time tracking for the current working day. The Service Orders Today tile shows the number of open service orders for the current working day. The All Service Orders tile shows the total number of assigned service orders. The Service Vehicle tile shows the license plate of the selected service vehicle. The quantity of the Spare Parts stored in the Service Vehicle is displayed in the corresponding tile.
Tip
The spare parts listed under Spare Parts stored in the Service Vehicle are stored in the local storage of the app and can therefore also be accessed offline, i.e. without network access.
The total number of your Finished Service Orders is displayed in the bottom section of the screen. How to use this overview for managing your service orders and service your vehicle is described in the Overview chapter.
