** CURRENTLY THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE TO ALL ACCOUNTS**
In times of poor service or no Wifi connection, VH allows the ability to work offline and upload the data once you are in an area of better service or Wifi.
Follow the steps below to work offline.
Working offline is done from the load pickup / delivery location level. Click on the load that you are planning to inspect.
The offline toggle is shown below at the red arrow. Move the toggle to the right to work offline.
Once you have switched to offline mode, you are able to mark each vehicle as inspected. This allows you to work without having to worry about any Wifi or Cellular data.
The VEHICHAUL menu bar turns yellow when working offline.
Inspect each vehicle as normal. Once finished inspecting them, continue on to add your signature to the load by clicking on the sign button.
Your signature and information is stored in the phone until you have an active connection where you are able to upload it.
The orange lines next to the vehicles show that the cars have been inspected. You will also receive a message (as below) that the signature was uploaded.
When you have returned to an area where you have service or wifi, you can then put yourself back online. This can be done by toggling the offline switch back to the left.
Select OK when you are ready to go back online and sync up the data to the server.
All the information you entered once you hit OK will be uploaded and synced with the server. You will receive a confirmation message to notify you the data has been uploaded successfully.
Repeat these steps to inspect another load location.
