Offline options for field data collection
We have field workers in remote locations that do not always have access to internet signal.
When they enter this area, they are forced to handwrite their info on paper or log to an excel file.
Then come back to office are to enter their data. Double-work for them.
Does anyone have any ideas on a solution to this?
Should they go out with an Excel file on a tablet and enter values there to then later import to existing records using QB Record ID?
Is there a third party interface?
Is there some basic native functions I am not familiar with that would work.
As a side note: Having access to Qbase in field is helpful in that they can locate poles using Lat/Long and the Map Report.
So if a solution could do this that would be great.
I'm open to suggestions and ideas. Thanks.
