Field Workers will use the Dataforce Runabout Application to log and complete their work.

Overview

Field workers use our companion app, Dataforce Runabout, to complete work on the site. Field workers cannot access the Dataforce ASAP backend; their interaction is done completely through Dataforce Runabout.

Before a fieldworker can use Dataforce Runabout, you will need to grant them access by sending them a Setup Code.

After entering the setup code into Dataforce Runabout, a subscription to Dataforce ASAP will be set up on their device.

If a fieldworker works for multiple companies that use separate instances of Dataforce ASAP, it is possible for the Fieldworkers to enter multiple setup codes to create multiple subscriptions.

Once a subscription is added to Dataforce Runabout, the Field Worker can create appointments or have appointments assigned to them in which they can answer questions, upload photos, capture signatures, take payments and add products.

Dataforce ASAP is able to accept a wide range of information about your workers, such as:

  1. Abilities/skills that your Field staff possess.
  2. A record of GST Registration.
  3. Custom attributes such as license numbers or dates of training.
  4. Phone numbers, email and other basic contact details.
  5. Subcontracts (Agents).

To help plan your scheduling, Field Workers can:

  1. Be assigned to sales territories via suburbs/postcode.
  2. Define their daily availability.
  3. Block-out leave and sick days from a worker’s schedule.
