The information gathered is specific to your business needs. Information that can be gathered includes things like location data, timekeeping data, wireless form information, and much more.

Administrators – Have access to all areas of the application. They can view the dashboard, access data collection, modify charts, and change module settings. Basic Users – Have web and mobile access to all modules. Basic Users can view the list of available modules, but can’t add them to the company account. Optionally, Basic Users can be restricted from accessing the web application and permitted access to the mobile application only by selecting “mobile access only”. Power Users – Have the same access as Basic Users with the addition of the ability to edit submitted data. Power Users can review, modify, and approve submitted timekeeping and form data as well as mark forms as shared.
Contact your sales rep for more information.
Administrators have the ability to change the general account information under administrator settings.
Users can be deactivated and deleted under the Users screen. Deactivating a user will free up a license, but store all the user’s submitted data. Deleting a user will also delete all associated data.
Through Administrative > Users.
During sign-up, an industry/vertical is selected and modules are suggested based on that industry. This gives a new customer a place to start.
My Modules is the section of the application that contains the modules that you signed up for when you registered for Encore. Going forward, this area will show the modules that you have on your account.
Modules can be added from the Find Modules section of Administrative > Modules provided you are within your module allotment for your subscription level. If more modules are needed and the subscription level needs to change to accommodate this, please contact your sales rep.
Access the module from My Modules or Find Modules. Select the edit button. The form opens and you are able to add or delete fields that suit your business needs. You can re-name a module as well but remember, if you re-name a module, your statistics for that module will begin at the time the name was changed.
Wireless Forms are a digital way of transmitting information.
Forms are designed to capture the metrics that are important to your business. Depending on subscription level, forms can also be edited to include any additional fields you may need that aren’t already on the form.
Reports available for Wireless Forms include: Entry Details and User Activity Summary.
Running a report creates a report on demand. Scheduling a report means the report is scheduled to go out on a specific day with specific frequency. Subscription level determines the ability to schedule reports.
Choose the Entries tab to view data entered into modules by users. Users are listed in grid format. Select View beside a user name to view all entries made in the module during the time period you selected.
The Dispatching Dashboard provides an overview of orders, workload, and status. See a breakdown of active orders, check the workload of orders due by day, and view the number of orders by status for each user. The time period defaults to This Week but can be changed to show Today, Yesterday, Last Week, This Month or Last Month.
From Dispatching > Orders select New and fill out the order form.
Orders can be entered into the system and assigned at a later date.
From Dispatching > Orders, select Edit to the left of the order to make any changes and corrections including assigning and reassigning to a different user, changing the status and cancelling an order.
Select “Add new client” from the Clients tab. Enter the client information and add new client.
Yes you can. While creating the order, select New Client, fill out the information and the client will be saved to your client list as you continue with the order.
From Administrative > My Modules > Dispatching, and select Edit and then Module Settings. Select New Service Type or New Status Type to create new fields. Save the new fields and they will be available when filling out an order.
Use Messaging to view and send messages to other application users on web and mobile devices. Your application notifies you of new messages in two ways: the Messaging menu item displays the number of new messages in your inbox, and messages that you receive while you are working with the application will display briefly and disappear after a few seconds.
With Messaging, you are only able to Message users on this account that are also using Messaging. This will not work as a text or email message to anyone not on the application.
The Dashboard(s) shows statistics on all tracked devices and vehicles. On the Summary Bar across the top, event information such as total trip time, total stops and total miles are displayed. Additionally, summary information is displayed below in panels. This Week is the default time period for the information shown on the dashboard. However, you can click the drop-down list at the top of the screen to choose another time period. Choose from: Today, Yesterday, This Week, Last Week, This Month and Last Month.
In Live View, see near-real time information about your users and devices. You can see last location, movement status, timekeeping status (if applicable) and time since the last GPS update. Live View is the user list panel, the search function and the map.
Geofences are map area boundaries used to mark areas of interest, such as homes, offices or employee no-entry/no-exit areas. Geofences can be created in either circle or polygon shapes. Geofences are located under the Intelligent Tracking menu item.
Under Tracking > Reports, the available reports include: Start and End Time, Stops time and mileage, and Tracking Summary.
The Time Keeping Dashboard provides at-a-glance information about hours worked by users in chart form.
