- Create observations as a stand alone item or from an inspection or drawing, whether in the office or out in the field
- Attach supporting documentation such as photos, drawings, and links to specs
- Keep your observations separate from your substantial completion items managed in the Punch List tool
- Identify punch list Items associated with your observation
- Assign a responsible party and due date
- Manage your observations through completion, maintaining real time history of actions
- Setup automatic overdue emails to keep responsible parties on track

Identify Your Field Observations—in the Field
Field observations should be noted where you find them—in the field. Create an observation as you come across one or create one from a pre-planned Inspection. All observations will be streamlined into one list, but can be filtered based on your requirements.

Attach Detailed Information for Reference
Every observation can include documents and digital photos, there's also a handy text area for adding details about the observation. Users can type in details, cut and paste text from other applications, or dictate text (if your mobile tablet allows). Now you'll have the ability to add extensive formatting and even perform spell check in the observation description field.
