Configuring Scaffold Custom Properties for a Job Site

Prev Next

Scaffold custom properties are available to Scaffold Tracking Job Sites. The custom properties enabled on a Scaffold Tracking Job Site will only be visible on Scaffolds assigned under that Job Site. The following types of custom properties are available on the Job Site:

 NOTE: The features mentioned in this article are only available in the Industrial and Enterprise editions of Quantify.

List

List fields enable users to select from a list of items. List items are unique to each list and are added using the field level Edit option located on the Scaffold.

Date

Date fields enable users to enter a date and include the calendar feature for date selection.

Text

Text fields enable users to enter up to 50 characters.

Yes/No

Yes/No fields enable you to enable or disable a custom labeled Yes/No checkbox. A check in the checkbox means the answer is Yes. For example, the Scaffold dialog can ask a user if safety equipment is required on that particular Scaffold. A check in the checkbox means that, yes, safety equipment is required. Use the text field beside the Yes/No checkbox to configure the appropriate label/question for the custom Yes/No checkboxes.

Required

When this checkbox is checked, users must use the custom property in order to create a Job Site.
