Working With Resco Inspections (Optional)

Resco Inspections is designed to perform the entire inspection process and the ability to generate a report directly on a device, immediately after completing an inspection. You can customize the report directly in the Questionnaire Designer or Report Designer. For information about how to use Resco's Questionnaire Designer and Report Designer, go to https://docs.resco.net/wiki/Mobile_reports_for_Resco_Inspections.

Resco Inspections is enabled in the MobileTech with Inspections project, however, you will need to assign the Inspector Role to any technicians using Inspections (and the optional Job Safety Analysis). If you will be using the Job Safety Analysis, you must complete the steps to enable here: Enable Job Safety Analysis (optional). Resco has a 30-day trial that you can use to evaluate Resco Inspections. After the trial, to purchase the Resco Inspections module for MobileTech, contact your WennSoft Customer Success Manager. If you do not want to purchase Resco Inspections, you will need to Disable Resco Inspections.

The Inspection Report filename is limited to 51 characters (this includes any appended date or timestamp information and the MIME type ‘.pdf’). If the Inspection Report name exceeds 51 characters, the Inspection Report annotation entity fails with the sync error: String or binary data would be truncated.
