Features in the iOS Oregon Inspector App – Available Early 2020

12/12/2019

0 Comments

 
The new Oregon ePermitting Inspector App will be released early 2020. This is a list of new features that you will find in the new Oregon ePermitting Inspector App as compared to the existing Accela Inspector App.  The Oregon ePermitting Inspector App will be available for iPhone and iPad devices at launch with an Android version to be available at a future date.  The existing Accela Inspector App will remain available as well.

We will send out an announcement as soon as the app is available for download from the app store and will also have training materials available.  Please send us an email at ePermitsHelp.BCD@oregon.gov if your agency is interested in in-person training.

Inspection Details:
  • Fees. 
  • Schedule, Reschedule, Reassign, Cancel, or Delete inspections directly from Inspection Details.

Record Details:
  • Activities.
  • Conditions of Approval.
  • First Issued Date.
  • Expiration Date.
  • Related Records.
  • Internal Comments – only displays those comments where “Apply to Inspections” checkbox is checked from the back office.

Inspection Summary Report:
  • Pictures taken on the job site will be attached to the end of the report.
  • Pictures can be renamed and reordered for the report.
  • Enhanced annotation available for pictures.
  • Date/time stamp embedded in the upper right corner of each picture attached to the inspection result.
  • The email subject and content is more clear.
  • Inspection Summary Report will include the date/time stamp and automatically attached to the record when submitting the inspection (doesn’t require multiple steps like the Accela Inspector App).

Searching:
  • Ability to search for Scheduled, Pending, or Completed inspections.
  • Ability to search for Records based on Status.
    ​
Other:
  • Reference Conditions (Address, Parcel, Owner for example) now display in the app.
  • Pending and Scheduled inspections can now be deleted for users with the correct permissions.
  • “Remember Me” option on the login screen. 
  • Easier to understand screens when Scheduling or Rescheduling inspections. 
  • Result, Reschedule, and Reassign one or multiple inspections from the Job List. 
  • All inspections from the Job List now plot on the map (this has been an ongoing issue in the Accela Inspector App). 
  • Block Out dates on the inspection calendar are honored when Scheduling or Rescheduling inspections (this doesn’t work properly in the Accela Inspector App). 
  • Condition banner displays more prominently. 
  • Easy to see login information across the top (logged in user, agency, environment, app version). 
  • Ability to review inspection details that were submitted to Accela database. 
  • See the last inspector to result an inspection on the record. 
  • Photos, Combined PDF, and the Inspection Summary Report will now attach to the “Record” instead of the “Inspection” so this allows these files to be available to the customer through Citizen Access. 
  • Only a small amount of data can be modified through the app (Inspections, Contacts, Description of Work, Internal Comments, Documents).  This will resolve some of the ongoing issues we have seen with the Accela Inspector App.
