Consumables

The Consumables area allows the user to view and manage Consumables Orders for Sites to which they are currently assigned. Any Consumables Orders that the user has previously created on Sites they are no longer assigned to will also remain visible.

Creating a New Consumables Order

To create a new Consumables Order on the Mobile Application, the user can enter the Consumables area and select the + icon located in the top-right corner.

When this is selected, the application will navigate the user to a new Consumables Order page, where they can begin the Site, Operative, Requested For and Consumables Selection Process.

Site, Operative, Requested For & Consumables Selection Process

This page allows the user to specify the relevant Site, Date and Consumable Items for the Consumables Order, as described below.

• Site – This dropdown lists all Sites the user is currently assigned to, allowing them to select the relevant Site for which the Consumables Order will be created. Once a Site has been selected, the Consumable Item(s) will appear for selection.
• Engineer – The Engineer dropdown lists all users currently assigned to the selected Site, allowing the Contract Manager to assign an Operative to the Consumables Order.
• Requested For – This is a date selector that allows the user to choose the date for which the Consumables Order is Requested For.
• Consumable(s) – This lists all non-deleted Consumable Items, allowing the user to select the required item(s) to include in the Consumables Order. Each time a Consumable Item is added, it will be displayed below the list, where the user can enter a Quantity for each item.

For the Consumables that have been included, this lists the name of each Consumable Item that has been added, along with a Quantity field that accepts any numeric value and defaults to 1. There is no limit on the quantity of a Consumable Item that can be requested.

The user can enter the required value directly into the field or use the – and + icons to decrease or increase the Quantity in increments of 1.
