OmniMove functions
OmniMove MobileForms is a MEAP (Mobile Enterprise Application Platform) and can easily reduce paperwork. You are able (or with the help of us) to create apps without IT knowledge that seamlessly support your business processes.
Selecting 1 of the function (s) automatically arranges the layout, database and synchronization, so you can quickly make your app without errors.
Not only for 1 application such as a work order but also for a quote, order form, inspections and / or other applications. OmniMove MobileForms is therefore a complete Mobility platform for now but also for applications that you want to digitize later.
We have many templates at our disposal (more than 2500), so you have the app ready and you can tailor it to your own wishes.
Changes to current applications can also be easily adjusted. With this you are no longer dependent on (expensive) consultants and developers and you can adjust this yourself quickly. If there are changes in your organization, you can respond quickly.
The functions as they are now present were created by customer wishes and new functions are regularly added to the platform by our developers. As a customer you are also always on the latest version of the platform and you can immediately use these new functions.
With these functions you are able to support your company-specific processes even better.
OmniMove MobileForms MEAP supports the following functions, among others;
User management
Assign templates to one or more people directly through the portal.
This way, service technicians get their own template(s), such as a work order or inspection(s), and account managers also get their own template(s), such as a quote. Applications like time tracking can also be assigned to everyone. You can even temporarily assign an application, such as an inspection to a subcontractor. Only applications truly relevant to the user will be visible to them.
Configure
Create your own forms
Without any IT knowledge, you can easily create your own forms or apps. Add the desired fields in just a few clicks through a user-friendly interface. You choose which fields you need from a wide range of available item types, including:
- Text field
- Text area (multiple lines of text)
- Numeric field
- Counter (counter)
- Selection (dropdown)
- Selection with search function
- Date field
- Time field
- Information field (read-only explanation or instruction)
- Radio buttons
- Read-only fields
- Required fields
- Conditional fields (fields that only become visible under certain conditions)
With these building blocks, you can easily create your own app or form, fully tailored to your business processes. Configuration is intuitive and fast – creating an app has never been easier.
Automated background processing
As soon as you add an item type, the underlying database is automatically updated, the layout is generated, and synchronization is handled. This prevents errors and you don't have to worry about the technical side of things.
Continuously up-to-date
We regularly add new item types to further expand our capabilities. Do you have questions or need help? We're always available, either by phone or email.
Dispatching
Automatically distribute tasks/assignments to the correct users.
With many assignments, it's often difficult to automatically send the correct task/assignment to the user. Therefore, the dispatch function was developed: the task/assignment is automatically sent to the correct user. The task/assignment can even originate from another (service) system; see our integration options.
When setting up a template, we also recommend pre-populating as much data as possible by sending it from an assignment. This has the advantage of ensuring the data is accurate and providing more information, allowing the user to complete their assignment/task even more efficiently and effectively.
Photo Support
A picture often tells a thousand words.
That's why it's important to be able to easily take photos with your tablet or phone's camera. The photo is automatically linked to the correct receipt, without manual editing. This prevents photos from being lost or added incorrectly.
The photo is immediately included in the report, which is emailed to the customer or can be retrieved later via the customer portal.
Besides taking a photo directly, you can also choose an existing photo from your tablet or phone's gallery.
GPS
Location and Time Tracking
While filling out forms, the GPS location is automatically saved, provided the device supports GPS and this feature is enabled. This accurately records where and when a form was completed.
In addition, it is possible to keep a GPS log, automatically saving the user's location at a configurable interval (e.g., every few minutes on Android). This data is securely stored and can be accessed via the portal.
The portal allows you to:
- See where forms were completed, per user and per form;
- Review a user's complete route based on the GPS log, including:
- Date and time
- Speed
- GPS accuracy
- Direction of movement
- All associated form data
This functionality provides valuable insights into the workflow and increases transparency and control over location-based activities.
Signatures and Sketches
The application supports digital signatures and sketches on a tablet or phone.
A customer can sign directly on the screen to confirm the work performed. This signature is automatically added to the template (e.g., a work order or inspection), along with the other entered information and completed tasks.
You can also quickly create a sketch, for example, to visually illustrate a situation or clarify a problem.
These features ensure professional on-site handling and provide immediate confirmation of the work performed.
Calculation Fields
The application supports calculation fields that can automatically perform calculations while filling out forms.
This includes instantly calculating total amounts in a quote, with or without VAT, or tracking a score during an inspection. The calculation field adapts based on the entered data, ensuring fast and error-free calculations.
This feature saves time, prevents calculation errors, and increases efficiency during the form submission process.
(QR) Barcode and RFID Support
The application supports scanning (QR) barcodes via the device's camera (iOS and Android), and reading RFID tags on compatible Android devices.
Barcode (QR Code) Scanning
The tablet or phone's camera functions as a barcode scanner. As soon as a barcode or QR code is scanned, the value is immediately recognized and automatically entered into the form.
This prevents typos and allows for quick and error-free selection or data retrieval, for example, when selecting products or objects.
RFID (Android)
RFID tags can be read on Android devices with a built-in RFID reader (such as the Samsung Tab Active 2).
By holding the tablet against an RFID tag, the stored information is automatically transferred to the app.
A practical application of this is inspection work:
Upon arrival at an object, the inspector reads the RFID tag, immediately revealing the object and any associated inspections or data. This increases accuracy and efficiency in the field.
Workflow
Within the app, you can define advanced workflows and business rules tailored to your business processes.
For example, during an inspection, if an inspection item is rejected, a field can automatically appear for entering the reason and adding a photo. This guides the user step-by-step through the correct process, ensuring consistent adherence to agreements and quality standards.
This workflow support enables standardization of procedures, minimization of errors, and improvement of work quality.
Examples of applications:
- A customer submits a request via a web form on the customer portal. This request is automatically reviewed and then forwarded to the appropriate technician via the dispatch function.
- A complete quote process can be set up, from request to approval and follow-up.
- Table data, such as machine information, can be managed centrally (instead of in error-prone Excel files). Using the data source functionality, this data can be used as a dropdown selection in the app.
Flexible and customized
You can fully configure the workflows yourself, or work with our consultants to design a process that seamlessly integrates with your organization. This creates a solution that is efficient, controllable, and scalable.
Cascading Selections and Popup Functionality
Cascading Selections
The app supports cascading dropdowns, which display complex or extensive selection lists in a clear and structured manner.
Selections are displayed in a tree structure, with each selection dependent on the previous selection.
For example: When a user selects an object, only the components specifically linked to that object are shown. This prevents incorrect selections and keeps the selection clear.
Popup Functionality with Search Option
For very large selection lists—such as customers, items, or machines—the popup function offers a solution.
Users can easily search within lists consisting of hundreds or even thousands of items.
Once a selection is made, the associated data (such as customer address, item price, serial number, etc.) is automatically filled in the form via data binding. This speeds up the process and prevents input errors.
Email PDF Report
Directly and completely in your own style
After completing a form, a report can be automatically emailed to the customer or other stakeholders. You decide what's in the email and how the attached PDF looks – completely in your own format and style.
Full control over content and layout
Easily create your own PDF template via the portal. With a user-friendly drag & drop editor, you can place the desired items from the form exactly where you want them. Not only the logo, but also the entire layout – from font and color to headers and section division – is fully customizable to match your corporate style.
Benefits:
- Direct email delivery of reports, including PDF attachments
- Fully customizable layout, including logo, colors, tables, and more
- Automatically generated based on completed forms
- Suitable for clients, colleagues, or other stakeholders
This way, you always create a professional impression with reports that fit your organization.
