The Location table cell type in Dashpivot lets you automatically capture the precise location of the user filling out the form, eliminating the need for manually entering coordinates, addresses, or Google Maps links.
This is especially helpful for:
Incident reports
Attendance registers
Inspections reports
Maintenance logs
Safety checklists
Material delivery logs
Sign-in/Sign-out forms
Quality control reports
To add a location field table cell to a template, follow these steps:
1. Access your Home Folder in the left-hand side navigation menu. From there, access the Template Library
2. Select the template where you'd like to add a location field. Click 'Edit Template' in the upper menu
3. This will bring you to the Template Editor for the selected template. To add a location field, you will need to to have a table (default or pre-filled, learn when you'd use one over the other) in your template. Drag a table field from the left-hand menu and drop it into your desired spot in the template
4. To add a location field, insert columns as needed and use the table cell dropdown to select 'Location' from the available cell types
5. Once done, click the 'Save' button in the top right corner of the screen to finalise the changes
Note:
Location can only be captured via the Dashpivot and Sitemate Mobile apps
The location field must be part of a default or pre-filled table; it isn't currently available as a standalone field
You can preview your location cell using the Preview tool
