Best Practices
Include a photos field in your template. All photos taken with the Dashpivot app record who took it, where, and when — with date and time stamps, descriptions, and comments
Use list dropdowns in table fields by selecting the "list" option in the template builder. Dropdowns keep data capture consistent, eliminate spelling mistakes, and speed up form completion. Any quantity charts in analytics can then be filtered by those list items — for example, how many hours did a specific person work, or how much concrete was poured?
In template settings, display relevant information (e.g. work area or date) so records can be identified quickly
In template settings, sort forms by the date on the form rather than the creation date
