The Options section displays your Technician ID, Employee ID, Employee Name, and the MobileTech Woodford version. All device settings are set up by your administrator in the Woodford project.

Job Safety Analysis

If your company uses the Job Safety Analysis inspection report from Resco, you need to set Use Legacy JSA to False.

  • True: Your company uses the legacy Job Safety Audit with tasking for service appointments. 

  • False: Your company uses the Job Safety Analysis using Resco Inspections.

Setting up Time Entry Default Pay Codes

To save time when you create unbilled and billable time, expense, and travel entries, you can set up default pay codes. You can select a different pay code, if necessary, when you complete an entry on your mobile device. Pay codes are set and assigned to individual technicians in Service Management.

If you don't set up pay codes, the pay codes from the labor, travel, and expense settings in the MobileTech setup are used. If no pay codes are set up there, default pay codes aren't displayed.

  1. Choose Setup
  2. Choose MobileTech.
  3. On the Setup page, choose Time Entry.
  4. Select the Default Unbilled pay codes to use for unbilled hourly, expense, and travel entries when you create timesheet entries.
