Flagged Cost Types to use in FM Mobile App

Currently the FM Mobile app only allows for 1 cost type to be designated to report both time and production quantities. There is a need for field supervisors to have the ability to report quantities that are mutually exclusive to the day's labor cost. For example, subcontracted work. If these types of activities have a different cost type than the one designated to the FM Application, field supervisors or unable to report the production or take field notes against those phases. This adds a second level of complexity to general reporting for the day.


It appears that the JC Progress Entry form solves this problem allowing the user to sort by either Item or Phase unit flags when inputting quantities to Vista directly. This allows for visualization of all the phases driving the project's production. How can we update the FM Mobile application so that it has this same flexibility?
