2011.7 Release Notes: Scoring, Numeric Data Type, Mobile Passcode, Export Completed Events and more... Released: October 13th, 2011 We are excited to share the details of our 7th release of 2011.
Scoring
We are very excited to announce that Field ID can now perform scoring on events. Many times criteria are marked using a score (for example, 0 - 5). Typically these individual scores are added or summed up. The total score is then used to indicate the result of the inspection.
Field ID can handle any mix of scoring ranges on one checklist and the scores can be added up using either the Sum or Average. With the total value of the score you can then tell Field ID what score indicates a Pass or Fail.
For a full description on how to setup scoring please see our help documentation at help.fieldid.com.
Numeric Data Type
When setting up Event Forms (checklists) you will now have another data type to select from. Numeric Data Type will allow you to specify that the value entered must be a number. When selecting a Number Field you have the option of specifying the number of decimal places that you would like when the value is entered.
Numeric fields will be helpful when recording measurements or temperatures.
New Add Schedule Widget When adding a new scheduled event the popup widget has been improved with a new layout and some quick links for quicker scheduling. In addition to using the calendar to select a date there are now quick links to schedule the event for Today, Tomorrow, Next Month, In 6 Months and Next Year.
Mobile Passcode
We have renamed the Security Card Login to Mobile Passcode. The Mobile Passcode can be setup on the web under My Account > Mobile Passcode and will allow you to login to Field ID Mobile using this Passocde instead of your username and password.
The Mobile Passcode must be 4 characters login and can also contain a barcode or RFID number to allow scanning for entry into Field ID Mobile.
(Please note, that the ability to login to the web with the old Security Card Login has been removed and the Mobile Passcode can only be used on Field ID Mobile)
Exported Completed Events
You can now export your completed events with all details, event form and observations to Excel. To export completed events you can go to My Account > Export / Backup. The export is filtered by Event Type and Date Range.
Smart Search Auto-Completed (Field ID Mobile)
On Field ID mobile you can now setup the smart search to auto-complete as you are typing in an identifier. The smart search can auto-complete on either the reference number or the identifier.
New Photo Interface (Field ID Mobile)
When taking photos with Field ID Mobile you can now see the all images that you have taken during an inspection and easily remove images if needed. 
Some more little enhancements... Our development team also added in the following small enhancements to Field ID this release: - Schedules moved to right side during add asset - when you are adding a new asset to Field ID you will notice that the schedules have been moved to the right side with a improved layout.
- New Asset Type Drop Down - On the new asset page we have added a new searchable drop down to make finding the asset type you would like to add faster.
- Identified Date field moved - on the new asset page the Identified date field has been moved to the top position on the page.
- New Support Link - the support link on the top menu now goes to our new wiki documentation at help.fieldid.com
- Enabled / Disable Order Details - through Setup > System Settings you can now enable or disable the ability to record Order Number and PO Number in Field ID.
Bug Fixes The bugs that are fixed in this release:
- Event Attributes Not Showing Up - in some cases when users included event attributes during a reporting search they would not show up.
- Blank Slate Missing - the blank slate that is used for reporting was accidentally removed - it is now back.
- Generic Error Message when importing a user - when importing users if the user id is too long the error message was too generic to determine what the problem was
- Error unlocking account - when unlocking an account a oops page was displaying although the account was unlocked
