    IMPORTANTDue to issues with Resco licensing where the Inspection license is assigned to any technician who syncs with a project that has Inspections even if they are not assigned the Inspector Role, you need to have two Woodford projects (one for Inspections, one for non-Inspections). See Import the MobileTech Woodford Project for the updated steps for creating a child project and importing the Inspections project.
  • Resco Mobile CRM 16.0.9 or higher (from device App Store)  

Important Notes

  • Customers using Bing Maps for Enterprise Basic or Free license will no longer be able to use Bing Maps for Enterprise services beyond June 30, 2025. To continue using Mapping in MobileTech, you will need to obtain a Google Maps API key at https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/pricing/. (You will need an API key that includes Maps and Routes. You do not need Places.) See Enter the Google Maps API Key.
  • As App Stores increase their security requirements, HTTPS (with Trusted SSL Certificates) will soon become required across all device types.  Therefore, we recommend you transition your MobileTech environment to use SSL with a trusted certificate.
  • Do not install MobileTech server components on your SQL Server machine. 
  • Install MobileTech Administration on the MobileTech web server.
  • Verify the eTimeTrack Web Service current release version matches the installed version of Signature. For installation instructions for each component, see the Installation & Administration Guide.

    , if you have set up password complexity, you will need to set this up again as the MobileTechAdmin.exe.Config file is overwritten.

For instructions on adding the user, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/install-windows/reporting-services-configuration-manager-native-mode?view=sqlallproducts-allversions. You can filter the instructions to your SQL Server version.

  • The Job Summary Timesheet report no longer prints automatically when a technician completes a job appointment with billable transactions on the appointment. If your company would like to continue to have this report automatically generated, you can remove the comment lines from Offline HTML:
