FM Mobile needs to limit phase codes that have Labor Cost Types.

As a General Contractor, we have many phases that should never get labor coded to them by our field guys. We have a lot of phases that are there for subcontract work. We also have General Conditions type phases like Insurance, bonds, etc. that we don't even allow to have labor cost type associated with it within Vista, but yet shows up on the portal for guys to accidentally code time to. FieldTime had checkboxes within their admin area to simply uncheck and guys couldn't put time to that specific job or phase and that was really nice to have to limit confusion and options for our guys.

    Mark,

    Yes. The changes were made in Vista before. Resetting the data on the iPad took care of the issue.

    Thanks for the assistance.

    Hi Richard,

    Did you change anything on the Vista side before downloading or syncing the apps? They should sync the same exact data.

    On your iPad, can you try going to Menu > Preferences > Clear & Reset data? This will resync the data and should only pull the correct phases.

    Thank you

    Mark,

    Yes. We are now. We had one CT set to labor that should not have been.


    However, on my iPhone, the phases are being limited. But not on the ipad app. I resynced both before trying again.

    Hi Richard,

    The FM mobile app should automticautcally limit the phases to active phases with the JBCostTypeCategory = 'L'

    Is this what you are seeing on your end?

    Thanks!
