What's New in Archibus V.25.1?
What's New in Archibus Cloud V.24.3?
Maintenance
Both the Maintenance mobile app and the Maintenance Console have been enhanced for this release.
Maintenance Mobile App
For your mobile field workers, the Maintenance mobile app now contains a series of user-friendly buttons to guide them through their work sequences in an intuitive manner. With these changes, they can work more efficiently and avoid data entry errors.
Logging Work Hours
Rather than entering the time that they start and stop jobs, your craftspersons will find it efficient to use the new Start, Stop, and Resume buttons to record time spent on a job. For example, they can swipe "Start" at the beginning of the job, at a later time they can pause the timer, and then resume the timer when they return to the job. The Start, Stop, and Resume buttons enable craftspersons to record their hours quickly and accurately, which in turn provides an accurate cost for the maintenance job. In addition, the interface helps prevent common mistakes, such as starting a new job while a current job is still running,
The new interface also enables users to see the number of hours already logged on a job.
Verifying and Recording Equipment by Barcode
Since many sites label their equipment with bar codes, those bar codes can be utilized to ensure accuracy. Your site can enable an optional feature that prompts craftspersons to scan the equipment they are servicing in order to verify that it matches the item referenced in the work order. Similarly, when craftspersons need to enter a value into the Equipment field, they can simply scan the equipment's barcode.
Accessing Relevant Work Details
The Work List now displays each job's date/time scheduled and associated equipment, so that craftspersons can more efficiently prioritize their work at a glance.

Maintenance Console
Since a work request may have several assignments and craftsperson logs, the Maintenance Console now summarizes estimated and actual hours by craftsperson so that supervisors can easily compare the totals side-by-side.
