Introduction
About this guide
This guide is intended for council staff who are using administrator access roles for Users.
About the modules
MobileOps sends information to an operative's smartphone or tablet, allowing them to receive public reports and gather more on-site details. Operatives can manage tasks, handle service requests, and conduct inspections.
To access MobileOps, Users will need to be given additional permissions enabling specific modules and features.
Once the application is created, assign the appropriate access role to the appropriate users and groups.
Mobile Ops Modules

Inspect
Users can make observations on assets, add notes and photos, and generate associated tasks through the inspection feature of the app.
Request
Users can submit new service requests, allowing them to report issues or request additional items.
Lone
Allows a User to set an alarm, check in and raise an alarm as necessary when working in a lone setting.
