Welcome again to our monthly heavy job safety plans, my field forms resource planner webinar. Soon to be just everything called heavy job because it's assuming everything. I love seeing the little emojis come across the screen. We're gonna give everybody another minute to get in before we officially start up, But thank you all for joining us. It's been fun. It's been hot down here in Houston. I hope everyone else is enjoying a slightly cooler summer. I think it's always comparative, though. Compared to last summer, it's been very mild. This is true. And no hurricanes yet. Also not true last summer. So had some family out on the West Coast. Actually, they're still there. And they're like tsunami warning. It's like, that's not something that we experienced down here on the Gulf Coast. Like, everybody gets something different. They get warnings for. So I hope anybody visiting us or listening in from Hawaii was okay. I know that they got a larger waves than than the West Coast did. All right. Let's go ahead and get started. Well, I go ahead and turn on the slide deck. Just remind everybody we are here to help answer questions. My name is Adam Black member of the product team here. And I'm going to pass it off to Andrew to introduce himself. Well, I get the slide deck going. Thank you. Andrew Fowler, product manager for heavy job. I'm sure we've if you haven't seen me before on these webinars, I sit over really all of the verticals. I don't really have a direct line that I work with. So when we start talking about my field or HeavyJob web or desktop, there's going to be a certain person that we're going to point to. And so today, we're going to be pointing to some of those people today. So I'll go ahead and pass it over to Brittany to introduce herself. Hi, My name is Brittney Klosterman. I'm going work on some of the heavy job features like export to accounting and potential change orders. Soon we'll be involved in Resource Planner. So, if you're interested in that, feel free to reach out to me. You guys have my email. And I'm going to popcorn it off to John Knudson. Hey, guys. I'm John Knudson. I'm also one of the technical product managers for HeavyJob. Yeah. Run all the other stuff that Britney does. I'm gonna pass it over to Aneel. Alright. Good morning, everyone. My name is Aneel. I'm also one of the technical product managers. I mostly work on the mobile side, so with the Field iOS and MyField iOS apps. And I'll send it over to Cassie. Hey everyone, I'm Cassie. I also go by Cassandra. So I am the TPM over Android, Field Android, and MyField. So MyField Android and MyField web. So that's part of what we'll be talking about today. And I will pass it on to Colby. My name is Colby. I'm a technical product manager for the safety skills forms team, for both mobile and web along with, Gaston. Don't know if Gaston is here today, but I'll I'll be, representing the safety side today. And I don't know who's left to popcorn too, so. And I'm the caboose, Matt Fidler, part of the consulting team here to add some color commentary and make witty comments, even if it's like this. We got a we got a lot of fun stuff to show today. We're going to do a deep dive on some of the new MyField improvements and kiosk stuff improvements that have been going on. So looking forward to seeing that. But as always, we kind of take direction from you. So in the there's a Q and A section, you can ask questions. We will do our best to answer them as they come up. If they're on topic, if they're not on topic, that's perfectly fine because the end of the session, we'll just end up doing lightning round and just answering whatever you got. We typically our area of expertise is generally HCSS products and and the operation stuff in general. But if you'd like us to comment on where we think the next what the weather is going to be in a month. Are almost as good as a farmer's almanac. We'll we'll see. But by all means, use the q and a section. We'll get into some of the questions for right now. Are going to spend two minutes talking about a quick cost adjustments change that we're going to be making. We understand how passionate y'all are about this because I've a lot of complaints about in the past. So let's let's take a look. This is one of those times where we like getting your feedback as to what makes sense, where are the calculations going to do the best for you. As I mentioned in the past, when we've when we started out, we ended up with a result that wasn't good for a lot of companies and they let us know. And so we made a change. We are looking to make an additional change to optimize a little bit better for some of the companies out there. We wanna make sure we're not screwing anything up for anybody that wants to use the new feature. So right now on multi job time cards, if you put hours towards each of those or several of the jobs, where does per diem go? Like that has been a critical question for us in the past. When we started with multi job time cards, we said, it's fine. We're going to put per diem on every job. So if you had one hundred dollars of per diem, in this case, Britney would get two hundred dollars because she has hours on two different jobs instead of it dividing equally amongst the different jobs. So we made a change to that at some point and we started dividing it out by hours. And we actually no longer double counted because it crossed jobs. But we're making a new change and actually letting you pick which cost code is going to receive the cost adjustment, those per diem dollars, so that they're not necessarily spread across all the cost codes on there. But you're gonna be able to pick which cost code assumes all of that cost. But the question becomes once again, how do we do that, especially with multi job, especially with different dollar amounts? So I'm just gonna go ahead and click through here. We have a couple of options for you. So if the jobs have different per diem rates, cost adjustment rates, how do we go ahead and split up the dollars? Presumably, you'd have seventy five percent of your cost here on job one because it's seventy five percent of the hours, twenty five percent over here. But if they have different rates, how do we end up doing that? And what do we do if you have that zero hours, but you still want cost over there? All right. It's a little bit tricky. Promise you with these new overrides, they're not going to affect anything you're doing today. You're going to have to opt into these overrides at the cost adjustment level. Now that I've done such a wonderful job explaining how this works, I'm going to let you absorb this screen for a second as to where you want your per diem to land and throw a poll up on the screen. Which I will find in here watch. I really feel like a fourth option of just Adam, we didn't quite understand what you were saying would have been applicable to. We need a fill in the blank. These are the fun questions that we didn't have on the SATs where there's either multiple right answers or there is no right answer. I would like to remind everybody that there is a cost adjustment that just lets you put in the dollar amount you want. In this case, the Foreman wants, which is why we don't see it used as much as just checking it on. But it is fully available. If you're concerned about the way we calculate things, by all means, put the dollar amount in yourself. And when I say concerned about the way that's concerned about the way we on this phone call calculate things, our developers are much smarter in that area than us. Alrighty, I'm gonna hit in poll and share results here. A lot in the first category, lot in the last category, not much in option B. So, to know. All right, thank you. And without further ado, I'm going to turn this over to our my field presenters. Hello. Okay. I think you need to switch the slide, Adam. Next, you let me know when you want me to hit it. Okay, all right. So I'll be talking about my field today and then I will be passing it over to Aneel and Colby to talk about their respective sections. But just wanted to go over my field and what it is real quick. For those of you who don't know what it is, MyField is our employee timekeeping app. So it allows your crew members and laborers to submit their time on their phone, along with any other relevant work information that they had for that day. So job information, cost code, equipment that they used, and etc. Go ahead and next. So what can your employees do with MyField today? This is without a paid subscription. So what you see on the screen here is what your employee would see if they did not have a MyField subscription. So they can view and sign for their submitted hours. So if their foreman submits time from them on the field app, it will show up here, and then it allows the employee to sign for their hours and do their attestation questions, and they can view their time for that week in this section here. As you can see, there's also the skills and observations section, so that is where they can review those. They can submit a safety observation, and they can also submit a maintenance request for equipment. So, this is all you can do without a paid subscription. So, So, to encompass the screen a little bit more, I had to scroll it down a little bit. This is what your employees can do with a paid subscription. So with this, the biggest difference here is your employees can clock in and enter their own hours, instead of having to rely on the foreman to do that. So here is the option at the top where you can see a clock in. You also have the option for the enter hour setting. Those are a that workflow is a setting that you can configure on MyField web, which I can show you in a second. So, depending upon whether you would like your employee to clock in or enter their own hours, that is a setting that you can set in MyField Web per user. So, in addition to the things that they can do for free, you can also submit equipment and site safety observations or inspections, and you can also view and submit forms. Go ahead and hit next. So, what's new for us? Your crew members can now clock in and clock out and edit their clock events on MyField. Right now this is currently on Android, but iOS is also working on this. So that'll be coming soon to iOS. So this is the setting that you will see in MyField web, where it allows where you can allow your users to edit their clock events. So if your employee forgets to clock in, or they entered in the wrong time for their lunch, etc, they can edit all of their timeline events now. So this is a setting that you can configure per user group, also down to specific user. So, it can be very granular if you want. And I think the next slide is a demo. Nope, never mind. So, just a general overview on MyField Web. Obviously, can see our various reports from the clock in events to your employee hour reports. You can see your detail report where it gives you all the detail for the timeline events. This is where you will also set in your workflow settings, like I talked about for your users. They will override specific, obviously, for a user group all the way down to a user setting. And then again, your workflow for clock in settings specifically. So, I can show that in a second. I think that is it for that slide though. Before we move on to the demo, Cassie, there were a couple of questions that came in. First from Andrew, is my field available in Spanish? As long as you have your localization turned on on your device, it should show up in Spanish. If you have any trouble, can always reach out to support or let one of us know, and we can help you figure that out. Nice. And so what we mean by that, just to double up on there, you know, in HeavyJob, like on HeavyJob.com, you can go up to the top right in your settings for your user and change what language, whether it's English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and it'll change it just for your user. In mobile, it's not a setting within our app. We're actually keying off the settings within iOS or Android. You you're into actual phone settings and choosing a language because one assumes that if you need it in Spanish on your entire phone, that we should also translate my field for that as well. And so we're using whatever the language is on your phone, assuming it is one of our supported languages, which admittedly are not as expansive as the two hundred languages supported by Apple and Google. So you do it on your phone. But yes, you can do my field or the field app. I'll translate it there. Mostly translated there. And then, Cassie, another question. Can the editing be turned off? I'm assuming that's the editing of the clock and hours. Yes. That is a setting, that can be turned on or off. So as you can see the toggle there, just like all the other workflow settings there, you do not have to use this. We made this available mainly for California customers, but if you decide you don't want to use it, that's okay too. You can turn it off. And Travis is asking when they'll have access to edit these clock an hour and times from the web. So I guess that's just more of a request. Can we edit on the web in addition to having the individuals be able to do it? Guess Travis, get more clarity from your question, are you wanting the managers to be able to edit the clock in and out events? Assuming that's what you're asking. I think so. Well, I see more questions coming, but let's dive into, guess the demo is up next. So I'll go ahead and share. While I get ready for that, I want to pile on one other very cool thing that MyField can do, the free version, which is always good. We talk largely about MyField being able to clock in and clock out, and that being the primary reason you would use it. But from an employee hours communication standpoint, or an HR standpoint, or a processing payroll well standpoint, the free portion of MyField also allows every hourly employee to see the hours turned in for them by their foreman. So if our foreman are good turning in their time card end of the day, beginning of the next day, that means by eight, nine o'clock or at lunchtime when I'm allowed to have my phone again as an hourly employee, I can go and double check and make sure that everything looks right. So if I ended up staying a little late last night or working or coming in early and my foreman forgot about that, I, as an hourly employee, have a chance to basically get a preview of what my paycheck's gonna be and chat with my foreman to be able to fix it and send in those corrections immediately instead of seeing it when my check is printed next week, which is a really cool way to help eliminate some of the headaches and frustration and friction if we get our hours wrong. I know the goal is to always pay everybody right every single time, but giving them access to be able to see their own time is a good, easy way to empower all your hourly employees to be able to double check and say, Yeah, that looks good. Even if they do it Monday morning, I can, if Adam's my foreman, I can look real quick and say, Okay, everything looks good. Or, Hey, last week on Thursday, had to stay late. So worth mentioning specifically is a really, really cool thing that you can do just by setting up your hourly employees with MyField subscription for zero dollars for them, which is always a nice thing for you. Yeah. So therein, a little follow-up to that one. One thing that we heard pretty consistently was, well, we can get some of our employees to sign for those hours so we don't have that problem whenever they're there with the foreman and crew leader. But we have this other guy working out in a ditch. Doesn't really talk to the foreman the entire day. How do we get him to sign his hours at the end of the day and stay compliant with the rest of those? So that's the great thing about it. If you have those employees that may be working away from the rest of the crew or or different hours in in the crew for whatever reason, they'll have that ability to sign for their hours at the end of the day as well. That's right. Good clarification, Matt and Andrew. So All right. Can everybody see this screen? Cool. All right. So whenever you pull up my field up on our little nifty header bar here, this is the main dashboard that you will see. This dashboard button here is where you can view all of your different reports. So let's say I wanted to check-in and see who clocked in today. Well, nobody's clocked in yet. So let's see if anybody clocked in yesterday. Yep. So here I can see who clocked in, their clock in photos if they submit that, and if we have that, enabled in our settings. And I can also view their location. I don't know if y'all can see that, but you can also view the location of the actual employee from this. But before I go too far into the reports, I did want to show the company settings over here. So like I was saying earlier, this is where you can completely customize my field and also specifically the clock in settings to what works for you and your company and your employees. So up here, this is where you will click whether you want clock in or hourly entry, and it'll show up on your employee's app, whatever you choose here. All of these are customizable, so if you require your foreman, you want to require the paid breaks, this is where you could enable the signatures. So like what Matt and Andrew were talking about, if you wanted them to sign for their hours on MyField without needing a MyField subscription, this is the setting that you would have to make sure is enabled. But, like I said, all the, job info here, this is something that you can completely customize as well, whether it's enabled required or completely disabled. Same with cost code work information. And your equipment work information. And I can't see whether there's any questions or anything, y'all will just have to stop me. So, I'm just gonna keep going until somebody stops me. You keep going. Take a look at the questions and we'll stop you. Okay. So, this is the clock in settings workflow here. This is where you can edit your photo requirements. So, we do have these little recommended, labels here. And then we also included this, just because it can kind of spam your timeline events. But if you require your employees to take a photo before clocking in and clocking out as well, this is where you can customize this completely. So you can have it for every single timeline event if you would like, or you can have it for none of them if you would like. So, that is completely up to y'all and your preferences. So, I'm just going do that for now. Work information. So, for clock in setting, this is where I can disable whether or not they have to enter their work information before they clock in. So, now I have it disabled. But again, that's personal preference. If you want them to include in all their work information, that way you are sure it gets the correct form and a job, this is where you turn that on. Same with require location, if you want to see where your employees are, making sure they're logging into the right job, that is where you can turn that on and off. The hide edit hour screen, this is not the same as the edit times reference. Just want to make sure I talk about that. This is where at the end of the day where your employee submits their time, it'll basically show them like a little summary screen where they can edit, you know, whether they did a specific time for each cost code, or they wanted to add different equipment, whatnot. It's that screen at the very end. So I'll show you all that in a second. But you can turn that on or off. So for the edit clock events, this is what we just did for Android and coming soon to iOS. So this is the setting that you can toggle on and off. If you have this off, your employees will not be able to edit their clock events. They will just be able to clock in and clock out, and that's it. So if you would like your employees to be able to edit their clock events, you would have to make sure the setting is on. And then the track de minimis time is a newer feature that we just added, and this is to make sure that we track for any off the clock time, whether it's answering questions or spending their time when they're not logged in or sorry, when they're not clocked into a specific cost code to make sure we account for any de minimis time. So this is also a setting that you can turn on and off. If you have this on, it'll show a dialog box at the end. Basically, it'll tell the employee, do you want to update your time to include the time you use to submit your hours? And then it'll update their time on their reports also. I want to emphasize, none of us are lawyers. None of us can talk about compliance in various states. However, for all of our friends out in California, we recommend that last toggle there. Friendly advice. And what it really boils down to is, does it take a minute or more to sign those signature questions to answer all the different attestations that you've set up. If you think it is ever yes, then turn that on. Okay. Again, I can't see if anybody has asked questions or anything. Yeah, let's let's let's do a couple of the questions here, Cassie. Jennifer was wondering when would you not want to require a foreman when clocking in and out? Like, just like the foreman is supposed to pull your hours. So why would you not ever want to require the foreman to the employee? So what's the workflow in that case? So in that case, this is where I've heard the common use case where if the employee either doesn't know what their foreman is, their foreman's going to be, or if there's multiple foreman on the job, that allows the foreman on that job to pull in the time for that job. And whoever foreman decides that they want that employee on their cost code, they can pull that in for themselves. So a lot of the cases, what we've heard is the employees just don't know what foreman they're going to be working for. So that's the instance where they just don't put in the foreman time. Yep. Or the foreman information, sorry. And for how that looks for the actual foreman themselves, so whenever the foreman is selected and they press that pull in option, it automatically puts that person onto the time card. Without that option selected, the foreman is the person in charge of selecting it. So they say, You know what? This guy, it was on my crew. I'm counting him towards my crew today. And they go through that same pull in mechanism. And depending on what information they have filled out, it fills out the schedule or even fills out the cost code information there for them. Very cool. Alright. Another question regarding, the settings here. So for editing clock events, does that feature apply to both clock in and manually entered time? And I'm going to make an assumption there for Rick that he's asking about the foreman's manually entered time that the employee can see now in the MyField app. And Cassie's shaking her head. So the answer is going to be no on that. It does not apply. You can only edit your own clock in events, not what the foreman has entered in for you. Yeah, so that is why it is also under the clock in settings work here to avoid any potential confusion. So for those of you who use the enter hour settings up here, this does not apply to you. It's only for the clock in setting. All right. Let's see. Daphne asked a question just right now about de minimis time. You submit your when does it ask you about de minimis time? Before you submit your hours for the day? And is it only asking the foreman or is it asking the individual employee? Asking the employee. So whenever the employee goes through the submitting their time workflow, right before they actually hit submit or end day, I can't remember what the actual button is. It'll show that little dialog box saying, are you ready to send in your time? This is what it'll update to. And then if they hit yes, it'll update their time and then it'll automatically submit their time. If they don't, if you don't have that setting turned on, whenever the employee submits their time, it just, it won't show that dialog box. Cool. And then one question from Alec from a little bit Ago, I think when when matter Andrew, we're talking, do the employees see approved or modified time enter? I'm guessing by the forming. So I think that's what we're talking about then is when the foreman has submitted the time into the system within heavy job within the field app and it goes up to heavy job on the web. Does the employee see time that has been changed at that point, changed by the foreman or changed by a reviewer in the manager system? Does it see that approved time? Basically, as soon as the foreman hits send, it's available for me as the hourly employee to look at. And then any changes that are made as we fix stuff, we'll see that. So if nine o'clock or let's say I just looked at it, talked to Adam as my foreman, said, Hey, remember I stayed late last night? He says, Oops, sorry, let me go grab my iPad and I'll fix it real quick. He can go fix it. He can revise and send his time card and then say, Man, I got you. And then I can grab my phone and I'll see it right that second. Yep. And another important note on the submission of hours, that's the part of the free workflow of seeing that information. If I, as a laborer, am submitting the hours and I submit, let's just say eight hours, and the foreman modifies that to seven hours and fifty nine minutes, they will also receive a notification saying that it was a different time than what you submitted. So we do alert the laborer to that as well, just part of the process. But at the end of it, proper notations is what you need to do, proper accounting for any changes in what the laborer submitted and what the foreman is submitting is part of that training that you should go through just to make sure that you have that trail all the way through in case there is an actual need for that. The laborer entered in the wrong information. We saw that he was actually late and he clocked in early. Whatever the case is, understanding that you have that trail all the way through, notating why those hours were changed is the important part for that. And I did want to add because that reminded me, we did make a change for that actual time discrepancy. So, that was fifteen minutes. So, if there was a time difference of fifteen minutes between what your employee submitted and what your form is submitted, it would show that notification for the employee that, hey, there's a time difference of fifteen minutes. But now we have lowered that to now it's if there's even a one minute difference, the employee will get notified. So, just making that super hyper sensitive for these employees to make sure they get paid for every single minute. Thank you California. All right, what do we got next? Just real quick before we hop away from the setting screen, I do want to point out all of these settings. They can be set at your company or your business unit level, or they can be set at a user group level, or it can be set at an individual user level as well. So let's say if you have a specific group that you only want that group to be able to edit their time and another group that you don't want them to edit their time, you can make all that granularity in who has what permissions and that can be done from this web interface. Exactly. Thank you, Aneel. Okay, I think that is going to be it for web. Let me share my phone. So today oh, pull still up. Okay. There we go. Today, I'll be showing the edit hours functionality on Android. So can you all see me okay? I'm good. All right. So this is MyField Android app. So as you can see, I already have a notification here saying that my foreman has not submitted the time for that day. So if there's any sort of notification or discrepancy, your employee will see it on their section up here. So just to kind of show that real quick. But for right now, I will go into our clock in settings, and whenever a user comes to clock in, this is what they will see. So right now this is available only on Android, but like I said, iOS is working on this currently, so we are hoping to have that Q3, Q4. Sorry, Neil, I don't remember exactly when, but later this year. So this is where your employee will come in and change their information. Let's say when I go here, I'll just leave my equipment there. So as you can see, the timer will show just like it has in the past. It'll show your hours in progress with their job information. But let's say I forgot to clock in like an hour ago. So here I will hit this little button that shows the pencil, and I can edit my time. So let's say I meant to clock in at nine or nine thirty. Now hit Okay. And if I wanted to add a note here, I can also do that. Let's say I forgot to clock in. And then I can hit update time. And now you can see my timeline has been updated here. Let's say I signed into the wrong job. You can also change your job, hit apply, update time, and it'll automatically change it there. So, rest of the workflow is still the same. The employees can still take their lunch, clock out, etc. So, I'm just going to hit clock out for now, so that way I can show you all the end day workflow real quick. But before I go to that, did anybody have any questions about specifically the edit time workflow? Because I can't see anything. Well, were two questions that we can cover through here. The most recent one from Kathy is, do the reports show the original time clocked in as well as the adjusted times? When you're on the web looking at reports about time, are you able to see the fact that the employee modified the hours? Currently, no. We are going to be working on that. It'll just show the updated time. That is yeah, it'll show the updated time. But in- pretty soon, we will be showing like an actual audit report where it shows exactly what the original time was, who made that change, and the time it was made. That'll be coming soon. Store that information. That information has been stored since we allowed editing. We need to make it readily available to y'all to access instead of you calling us up saying, hey, need to know who did this when, which we can get to you right now. But we're going to give you a nice report for that. And then the other question from Kathy from earlier is, is there training in the academy on editing the clock in clock out? I think Aneel checked with our academy team in the intervening time. The answer to that is no. However, we do have a lovely video that we've just created while y'all are watching. So you can look at the webinar recording and clip that because that is Cassie showing how to use it, which answers Chris's question about where to access a recording of this webinar. So it will be available. I think it takes a couple of days for it to process and get up there, but it will be available on our website. All right. I did talk to the Ed service team about that, and we will be doing a actual video for edit clock in times after iOS is done with their work. We wanted to do that whenever both apps have full purity, so that way it doesn't confuse everybody. Sounds good. Right. Ready for me to continue? Is that all the questions so far? Yeah, you keep going. Okay. Here I'll hit end day. And so this is the, let me show you, right? You can see, the edit hour screen that I was talking about earlier. So, the form or the wants to add any additional notes or equipment here, they can do that here. But for now, I'm just going to submit. And this is where, as the employee, I will attest to make sure that my hours are correct, that I took all the breaks that I needed before I submit my time. So, I will confirm these hours are correct. Yes, I left the job uninjured. Yes, I was offered a break every four hours, even though I didn't actually work four hours. And then I'll just put NA for no, because we didn't really do that. But if you want to enter any notes, you can enter them here, and this will go to the general notes section in your MyField Web. So if you see your- either your- really any of the reports, there's a note section. Any notes that they enter in here, it'll show up in that section. So, if I hit submit, this is the de minimis dialogue that I was talking about. So, before I hit submit, if you have this setting enabled, this is the dialog box that your employee will see. So it's basically confirming with them, yes, I want to update my time with the time that it took me to answer my questions while I was clocked out. So, if the employee is like, No, that was my bad. I don't actually want to update my time. They can uncheck this and hit submit. But if they do want to update their time, they can check it and hit submit, and it'll automatically update their time to what it currently is whenever they submit. I will go ahead and hit submit, and then it will push it up to my MyField web. Very nice. And if I go to my submitted hours, it should pull up here. Yeah, see. So, these are the hours that I just submitted. It'll show all the cost code details here. My actual timeline. It'll show that my foreman hasn't submitted any time yet. Whenever the foreman does submit time, it'll show right here under the hours the foreman submitted as well. Just to show the signing for hours real quick, if the foreman actually submitted time for me, and this was kind of being the use case of the employee does not have a MyField subscription, or the employee forgot to submit their hours for that day, the foreman can submit time for them in the field app, and it'll show up here. As you can see for Wednesday, I forgot to submit my hours, or I don't have a MyField subscription. The foreman submitted hours for me. This is where I can see the information that he submitted for me, make sure that's correct, and go through the same attestation questions. And so I will sign and submit. And so that is that workflow. Very cool. Right. Had a few other questions come in. First one on the submission of those notes. If an employee submits information in Spanish, how does that come into HeavyJob? Does it come in as translated, or does it come in as Spanish? That's a good question. I don't know about Heavy Job specifically, but for my field, it should show up whatever language it was inputted in. Yep. So, we'll keep that same language all the way through as submitted versus the overall button clicks and all the text on the screen that we can control, we'll change that. But as far as what is submitted, we'll keep it in that original language. Run through a few of the other ones here. Is there a geofence option per job for MyField so the laborers can only clock in once they are on-site? So this is where under My Field Web, if you click in the required location, this is where you can toggle it on and off. So if you have a job location set up in HeavyJob, if they are not in that job location, it'll show up on the report that they clocked in or clocked out outside of the geofence. Alright. When, when employees intermediate readings and odometers on their time card for equipment, where does that go? And it looks like if it goes to E360. Yeah. Yeah. And, Matt, you are the equipment expert on the call. Is there a pull in from E360, or does it just automatically land in the database magically? It happens automatically. So when you hit the send button, from the form and time card in HeavyJob or from an inspection or in here in my field. It's just shooting all the way across. Three sixty is gonna double check to make sure that that meter makes sense. It's not gonna let you Ferris Bueller the meter and try to roll it backwards, but as long as it's a valid meter reading that that makes sense to three sixty, it'll say cool, and it'll show it was updated by, I think, either heavy job safety or my field. I can't remember how we label them, but it'll come across. All right. Last question. There are some more, but we're going to keep moving forward. But last question from Carla, is this live already? I think everything you've shown Cassie is live in the system. We haven't shown anything that is not ready to go. Yes. I do want to clarify like this specifically on the Android app and is live already. IOS is currently working on the edit clock in feature for iOS. So if you're on iOS, it'll be coming soon. Don't worry, we haven't forgotten about you all. Currently, it's just on Android, but yes, it is live. Very cool. Alrighty. Okay, so I will stop sharing so that way we can get to Aneel and Colby now. All right, Aneel, I think we're turning it over to you for kiosk mode. Okay, excellent. I don't see the slides up just yet, but I can start talking. Yeah, so what Cassie showed us was my field as an individual user. So the person has their own device, they're logging their time for themselves or choosing which cost code they want to work on, the equipment they worked on, all of those things for themselves. Also have something what we call kiosk mode. The kiosk mode is essentially just how it sounds, it's like a kiosk setup, and it's made for and it's intended for like a group setting, right? So if you think of like a shop or a factory or any of those places where you have a group of folks, they're all doing similar work, This, the kiosk mode allows all of them to sign in from a single device, an iPad, that's stationary in that location. And they can clock in and out and put in their time. And so how it works is there's either like a foreman or an admin user that'll go in and set the job that that kiosk is tied to, and they can also choose the cost code that the time that's logged will account towards. And then once that admin user sets that, it's essentially ready for the laborers to come in and clock in and out. The admin can always go back. In the screenshot, if they hit settings, they can always go back and change the job or the form and any of the specifics that the time is allocated to. But for the most part, it's essentially set it and forget, where it's set for them. And then when the laborers walk up to the device, they essentially have three different workflows that they can go through to get their time in. We have a standard email and password. That one's depending if they remember their password or not, might that one may be the slowest flow. We have a phone number option. And the typical behavior there is they'll put in their phone number, they'll get a text message, a code sent to their phone number, and then they'll punch in that two factor authentication code, and then they're clocked in. And what we recently did is we allowed a phone number only login option, and that one is by far the fastest. It's not enabled by default. It's actually disabled by default, but there is a company preference in credentials that can be set who are in for kiosk mode users only. If they're signing with the phone number, they can tap in their phone number and they'll get to the logins, the clock in screen right away. And then all of these methods are the same, whether they're clocking in, clocking out, starting lunch, ending lunch. It's the same flow. For the phone number, really for any of these, as Cassie showed, there's a setting in my field web to require photos. And so if you do want, if you do allow them to log in with the phone number only, there is that option of a secondary validation of let me make sure I'm enabling them to take a photo when they're clocking in and out. Next slide. Cool. So let's talk about the differences between what you can do from the standard MyField workflow versus the kiosk workflow. And then we'll also talk about the similarities. So like I mentioned already, the MyField use is typically for an individual user on their own device, whether it's a company issued iPad or phone, whether it's their personal phone, it's an individual device. The kiosk mode is an iPad that's shared across all their users. In the standard MyField workflow, the users independently choose their job, the cost code, the form and the equipment that they want to lock time towards. And like you noticed in the web settings, all of these are, they can be marked as required or optional or disabled. That can all be set on the web band. Whereas on the kiosk mode, like we talked about, an admin presets all of that for the user. So literally all they do is get logged in and it's all set for them. They don't have to know what job they're on. They don't have to know what cost code they're on. They don't have to worry about what format it's being logged towards. All of it is preset for them. Similarly, because on the standard MyField workflow, the user is doing all of that themselves, they can also change all that information on the fly as needed throughout the day. On the kiosk mode, only an admin can do that. On the MyField side, the standard workflow that Cassie walked us through, they can lock time against multiple cost codes and even multiple jobs. On the kiosk mode, it's set to that single job and that single cost code unless an admin goes in and changes it. With the standard MyField workflow, they can lock time towards equipment. Kiosk mode users cannot log time towards equipment. We talked about multiple format already. Standard MyField mode, they can log time towards multiple formats. Whereas the kiosk mode, only if the admin goes in and adjusts the setup, then can they make that change. What you guys learned from the demonstration, users can see and sign for their foreman submitted time all from their individual MyField app. In the kiosk mode, they can't, from the kiosk itself, see their form and submitted time. But like we talked about earlier, there is the free version of MyField where they can clock in and out all from that kiosk. But then if you guys enable them to download MyField on their device, they can use the free version and then see the form and submit a time and sign against the form and submit a time. The edit time work we talked about, users can do that in the MyField standard flow. Users cannot edit their time on the kiosk mode workflow. And then lastly, as you mentioned, the intent for the standard MyField is the single laborer, single device kind of possibly working independently. Whereas kiosk mode, it's meant for multiple laborers. It's a single device and all the laborers are working in the same job, similar type of work. And the next slide is just some similarities. Both can require photos from clocking in and out. In both of them. The individual users can add notes for themselves, and then both of them can require the three heavy job signature questions, the attestation questions, both when you're ending day on my field, the standard one, or when you're clocking out on kiosk mode. All both of those options will allow the user to answer the questions. Yes. For all the differences and similarities, big thing is what does it mean for a single stationary device and what should happen whenever that's the case versus the flexibility that you have whenever it is an individual device per that individual user. So, what does it mean for really a crew setting, getting them all clocked in, versus that individual labor or perhaps operator setting, getting them clocked in and recording their information? Excellent. Is there other questions? Some scanning requests? No. There's something specific. Okay, perfect. So next we'll show I'll hand it over to Colby. We'll talk through skills. So if you remember from the very beginning, skills was one of those modules you can actually see in the MyField app. So Colby will talk us more about skills specifically. Yeah, so we're going to go over skills and inspections now, but we'll start off with skills like Aneel mentioned. So this is something that as Cassandra mentioned at the outset, that's part of the free and the paid for version of the MyField subscription. And so this is going to be where you can see your individually assigned skills. So skills of course are assigned in skills manager on the web, but, your individual employee skills can be seen within the MyField app. As you see here in the screenshots we have on the slide deck, we, you're able to see, your expired skills, your expiring skills, and your, current skills. So, you'll be able to know if something's coming up to be expiring soon or if something is ex and you need to get it renewed. And then also you're able to see the attachments that, associated with individual skills. So you'll be able to pull up a certification if, they attach that PDF. You'd be able to pull up a picture if they if it was a group picture of an informal training, something like that. This is really useful for, MyField users especially for individual operators who may be asked, hey, are you certified to operate this piece of equipment? Well, you can pull up your MyField, you can click on your skills and show your individual We hope it's not an OSHA, inspector that's asking your operators this but maybe it's a foreman or a project manager, someone like that who they can say, hey, yep, I'm certified to do this. And of course your foreman, can have access to these skills as well in the HCSS has filled out but this is specifically, for the my field app. Alright. And then, that's pretty much all for skills. There's not a whole whole lot to it there. It's pretty simple. So we'll go ahead and move on to, inspections. So, Adam, I'm gonna take over here so I can share my my phone. All yours. I see a few more questions coming in Colby as you're doing that. Rick's asking a good question here from before. Can the time submitted be altered after the employee signs their time card? If so, is another signature required? Bottom line is, yes, after the employee submits their time, you want the foreman looking at that and going, I think that's a little bit off. All right. And making the modifications. But if so, which we do allow, what happens to the employee's signature at that point? The employee is signing for a specific time that they have submitted. If the foreman modifies that time, if the engineer in the office or the PM modifies that time, the signature is no longer valid and the employee will need to re sign. All right? So that absolutely will happen. But great question there, Rick. And Colby, all yours. All right. Thank you. So now, like I said, we're moving on to inspections here. So you'll see I'm in the HCSS MyField app and this is an item that's included with the pay for subscription of MyField as inspections. And you'll notice here when I click inspections, it's actually going to open HCSS field. So, you will need to have HCSS field installed on the mobile device as well as my field because it does open in HCSS field. But from here, you'll see the full inspections window. You'll notice a few things here on the screen. I have a few tabs. I have open, scheduled, and completed. So the open tab is gonna be any any inspections that you currently have open that you've started that you maybe haven't sent yet or or currently in progress. The scheduled tier is gonna show everything that you have scheduled for you, for your person, or for your group, or for your business unit, the job that you're on, any of those items. So as you see here, I have a repeating scheduled inspection that I need to perform. And then you'll have the completed here, which you see I have a failed inspection and a couple of completed inspections set. So you'll see you'll be able to see what you have that you sent in. So going back to the open screen here, we have the add inspection button. There you'll get your full list of inspections. You can click one of them, fill it out. For example, I'll click this rough terrain forklift inspection. You select the equipment from your equipment list and then you have your inspection items as you'd expect you. Yes, no, not applicable, then you have, individual sections that you can answer these for. Another really sorry. You got something in my throat. Another really valuable item for here, especially for MyField users for those operators who may be separate from your crew for a while is the scan QR codes. That's we call that scan to inspect. And so what you can do is if your piece of equipment has, the QR code that you can get from the website and put that on your equipment, your user can actually scan that QR code here with the scan QR code button. And then they'll be able to scan the piece of equipment. It'll automatically open the correct inspection and associate it with that piece of equipment. So there's no guesswork in it anymore. You take all the guesswork there, they know which inspection they need to use, they know which equipment that is associated with it and they can just go through the inspection as normal. Finally, down here you have the follow-up section. So these are going to be follow ups assigned to you. We have open follow ups and then we have closed follow ups. So the follow ups are automatically generated when you have a failed item on an inspection. So if you're doing an equipment inspection and something fails, it'll automatically create a follow-up. Follow ups can be assigned to different users. This they can be assigned here on the mobile side. They can be assigned on the website as well. And so you're here in this section, you're gonna see all the ones that are assigned to you as a user. You can also see though all the ones that are open. So if you're on a specific job, for example, I'm on this test job here, I I can see all the open ones even though, they're not necessarily all assigned to me. And then finally, you'll have closed, which I don't have any closed follow ups here, but those would be all your closed items. Within these two, in both screens, you have the option to filter by by the assigned type form, inspector status, and then you can also, select a job as well. And so that's all available within HCSS' field through the MyField subscription. And that's all for me. I'll hand it back over to I think Adam, I guess. I'll hand it over to Adam. Why not? Sure. Let me go ahead and share our, our last slide. In fact, are getting so close. We're going to end up skipping a couple of slides through here. Y'all see? Alright. Okay. This is, what's coming next up for my field. So some extra tracking meal breaks, multiple rest breaks and waive breaks, some new UI improvements and some clock on workflow improvements are coming soon, which all should be lots of fun and then hitting the QA real Q and A real quick. Several good questions. Alec, can we get specific selected skills and expirations on the daily dispatch report? I think you're going to be seeing more dispatch stuff tied into skills at some point next year. So we can see what we can do about that and tying things together a little bit better there. And I'm sure you have some more detailed ideas about the best way of making that happen. By all means, you know our number. Chris was asking said possibly a hard question to answer. But on average, for companies that have been using MyField extensively, what percentage of the employees are using it? It's a great question, actually. I think what we end up seeing is that from companies using my field, it's either all their field employees, which is very typical. It's anybody in the field, they're going to start using it. We also see companies start off and say, all right, I don't want try this with a crew or two. And so they might trial it out themselves and just verify that things are working the way they want to optimize the workflow. And then they take it into just everybody in the field is going to be using it. That's our workflow. That is what we're teaching. The alternative, though, is that we do have some companies that are working in different areas. So they might choose to use my field in an area in which they feel that from a compliance perspective, it covers them a little bit better. And they're not going to force it on employees that are not working in one of those areas, that sort of thing. So that's another factor that we see in that. But for the majority of companies using MyField, it's pretty much going to be all field employees that are assigned to use it. Yeah, I did mention as well in the message that it's also sort of a survivor bias. So, if somebody is not using we're assuming that it's everybody that's a laborer in the field. But if somebody is not set up with the credentials, then we don't actually see that. And so, we're assuming that it's everybody in the field. I think it's a safe assumption on our part, but we actually don't know and we can't know. So that's part of it. And it is time. I'm going to mention Jerome's questions because he asked one at the beginning and one a little bit later. Some great ideas, especially on the safety side, of allowing the employees to sign for their safety meetings or their JHAs in my field as well, not just their time credit signatures, as well as that ability to see their SDS sheets and other important safety documents and resources in my field. They have direct access. They don't have to go to the foreman for that kind of stuff. Those features not available now, but great ideas. We've definitely been talking about them in the back channel, so looking forward to trying to fit some of those things in. All right, we're one minute over. I do apologize, but great conversation today. If you have any questions about any of this, feel free to reach out to our emails. Know how to find us. Reach out and we'll talk. Otherwise, we'll be back again next month on the last Thursday at ten o'clock Central. See you then.
This is HCSS's monthly webinar focusing on HeavyJob safety plans and MyField resource planning features. The session covers recent updates to MyField, their employee timekeeping mobile app, including new capabilities for employees to clock in/out and edit their time entries on Android devices (with iOS support coming soon). The team demonstrates MyField's free features like viewing and signing submitted hours, as well as paid subscription features including direct time entry and equipment inspections. They showcase kiosk mode functionality for shared device environments like shops or factories, where multiple employees can use a single iPad to clock in and out. The webinar also covers safety skills management, inspection workflows, and various configuration settings for different company needs.
