Feature update: Autosave is here!

We've been working on implementing your feedback about adding an autosave. Omnant now supports autosave for field reports!

Now when you are working on completing the narrative for a field report or adding an attachment, your work will be saved automatically.

How will I know if autosave is "doing its thing"?

  • You may notice a green popup in the top right corner when you have been idle for a short period of time.
  • You may notice that the save button goes from yellow to gray automatically.

Your progress writing field reports will be automatically saved at regular intervals on:

  • Create Field Report page where you can enter Summary Details, Additional Information and Report Details (narrative)
  • The Attachments tab of a field report where you add attachments (e.g. reports, images, etc.)

Please note, that autosave is not currently active at this time on the input / data entry window for attachments (i.e. entering field data on an attachment). However, once you close the attachment window, the next autosave will include this new or updated attachment.

Log into Omnant to enjoy a more seamless and convenient field report writing experience!

Exclude field test records from linking with break reports

We're excited to unveil a new enhancement that improves your reporting accuracy: the ability to exclude field test records from linking with break reports!

With this feature, when working with a new break report, you now have a way to eliminate any “odd” or “floating” field reports that your team may have created that are not destined to be linked to a break report.

By being able to now exclude these field reports, you can streamline your review process, reduce clutter, and focus solely on the data that matters most.

Omnant continues to help you maintain a clarity amongst field test data and break reports, ensuring your records are precise and comprehensive.
