ALLOW PHOTOSRadio ButtonThis option allows you to enable Photos section in the Step details page of Rounds Pro mobile application to add images.You can select one of the following options:
  • Yes: The Photos section is enabled in the Step details page of Rounds Pro mobile application. You can capture or attach images to the step as a photo evidence.
  • No: The Photos section is not enabled.
CONDITIONSCharacter/NumericThis field stores the value of the Step condition.Select or enter the reading value to set the condition. This condition combined with the value in the OPERATOR box, will activate the conditional step to appear.

If the Step type is picklist, the picklist values for that step appear in the drop-down list. If the Step type is numeric, then you can enter a number only. If the Step type is character, then you can enter a character string.

CONDITIONAL STEPCharacterThis field displays the step that must be performed if the condition set for the primary Step is met. Select a Step that exists under the asset where the primary step exists or type to search for the step that must be activated if the reading values meet the condition set.
DISPLAY MESSAGECharacterA message providing information on the limit value or the health indicator.Enter a display message associated with the limit or the health indicator in the Limits Only or Generate Health Indicators section. The message can contain up to 50 characters. You can see this message when you enter the readings for the step using Mobile Rounds.
GENERATE HEALTH INDICATORSRadio buttonThis option allows you to create health indicators based on the threshold level for readings. Select this option to create health indicators based on the threshold level for readings.
HEALTH INDICATOR TYPE (Numeric reading type)CharacterDisplays the following indicators with the appropriate color code:
  • Alert (Red)
  • Warning (Yellow)
  • Normal (Green)
The appropriate indicators appear against each limit based on the upper and lower threshold levels:
  • Upper Level 3 or Lower Level 3: Indicates a severe upper or lower threshold for readings. When a user enters a reading at this level while collecting data, an Alert health indicator appears.
  • Upper Level 2 or Lower Level 2: Indicates an upper or lower threshold for readings. When a user enters a reading at this level while collecting data, a Alert health indicator appears.
  • Upper Level 1 or Lower Level 1: Indicates an upper or lower threshold for readings. When a user enters a reading at this level while collecting data, a Warning health indicator appears.
  • The readings between Upper Level 1 and Lower Level 1 are in the normal range.
HEALTH INDICATOR TYPE(Picklist reading type)CharacterDisplays the following indicators with the approriate color code:
  • Alert (Red)

  • Upper Level 2 or Lower Level 2: Indicates an upper or lower threshold for readings. When a user enters a reading at this level while collecting data, a Alert health indicator appears.
  • Upper Level 1 or Lower Level 1: Indicates an upper or lower threshold for readings. When a user enters a reading at this level while collecting data, a Warning health indicator appears.
Jobs Queue (x)Drop-down List BoxDisplays the status of each job.When you update a Step or a Step Template, the Jobs Queue (x) shows the status of each Step and Step Template.
LIMITCharacter/NumericThe threshold value for the readings entered for the Step in Rounds Pro mobile app.Based on the value selected for READING TYPE you can enter the following readings:
  • Character: The Limit rows do not appear in the LIMITS section. You cannot enter limits.
  • Numeric: Numbers (decimal, negative or positive).

  • If the Step type is Numeric, standard numeric operators appear in the list.
  • If the Step type is Picklist, the values that are added to the picklist appear in the list.
PRIMARY STEP NAMECharacterThe name of the step in a route, to which you want to add conditional steps. The field contains the name of the current step in the route to which you want to add conditional steps.
Note: Subsequent conditional steps that are added are displayed as STEP NAME.
READING PICKLISTCharacterThe data that is displayed if value for READING TYPE is Picklist.This field contains the values defined in the value set.
