IF you don't know much about QNOPY:
check out our starter page on how QNOPY works
IF you don't have a user account:
- If you're a member of WSP, single sign is enabled, meaning you can download our app directly from the app store or google play and sign in with your @woodplc.com email address to log in.
- If you aren't a member of WSP, you'll need to contact us to get an account. Contact support@qnopy.com with your name, company, and email address. From there, we'll quickly make your account and help you get started.
IF you don't have a project assigned in QNOPY:
- If you're a WSP user, you'll be able to automatically access sample forms and have a project assigned to test out our app. Ask us for access to our custom WSP page for more information and a guided video tutorial.
- If you aren't a WSP member, you'll need to ask us to set up a project for you, and ask us to assign the daily field log to your project at support@qnopy.com. Once you've done that, you're ready to sign in and access the daily field log!
- Or, try making a project on the web yourself by using this page.
Accessing the Daily Field Log in the app
1. The first step is logging in with your user credentials after downloading the app (see above).
2. The first thing to press once you log in (and every time you log in) is the sync button in the upper right corner. This ensures everything is downloaded and any updates to your projects and forms will appear.
3. Once you've logged in, you'll see a list of your projects, as shown on the screen below
4. To go to any of your projects, simply tap on the one you want:
5. Once you've tapped into the project, a list of options will appear: "continue with" and "start a new event". Under continue with, past forms you've filled out will appear.
6. As shown below, click on the daily field log form under "start a new event" to start filling out a new Form.
7. Press "Start" when the pop to start field data collection appears.
8. Then you're in the form! Most of the form entry is pretty self-explanatory: simply fill our your data as you normally would. Click the sections at the top (e.g., qnopy daily field logs, daily field notes) to scroll between tabs. Scroll to the bottom of the page to learn more about individual features and question types in the form.
9. Once you're done entering your data in the form, press the Upload Button in the bottom right of the screen as shown below. This ensures all your data will be synced and accessible in report format on our web portal (click here to access log in for web). Click here to learn how to view your reports.
10. Once you're done filling out the form and have pressed upload, you can hit the back button in the upper left and then the back arrow to return to the main screen. You'll now see this filled out form under past events to "continue with", and can start a new event with the daily log or a different form whenever you want.
*If you ever run into any app problems or have questions, call the QNOPY support line by going into the settings page in the bottom right corner of the home screen and then clicking the "Contact Support" button*
Additional Buttons in QNOPY
While you're testing out the daily field log, take the opportunity to learn more about some of the fun and helpful features QNOPY offers and get comfortable with certain form fields.
1. Taking Photos
To take a photo at any time, simply click on the camera button in the bottom middle of the screen.
To find your photos, click on the paper clip icon to the right of the camera button. All your attachments will live there and be uploaded into your report when you're done collecting data!
What if I took a photo on my camera roll that I want to attach?
Luckily that's what our gallery button is for! Click on the gallery button to the left of the camera icon and it will allow you to pull any attachment from your photos.
2. The Draw Tool
The draw tool in QNOPY allows you to draw on a blank canvas, your photos, any pdfs you have uploaded, or your map view.
Once you've opened the tool, draw on the blank canvas or play around with any of the options in the upper right that you can draw on.
See example below of what happens when you click the map icon (far right), capture your coordinates, and then add some fun shapes and diagrams.
3. Adding "multiple sets" in QNOPY
Adding a data set in QNOPY allows you to make multiple measurements and have your data formatted in a table in your report.
To add a new set, simply click the + button when you want to record a new observation. A new button will pop up that says "new set" for you to click.
You will notice after clicking it the page is blank. Enter your new observation in here. To navigate between sets, click on the arrows shown here:
4. Using drop-downs in QNOPY
Drop-downs in QNOPY allow you to pick from a pre-made list of options and enter your own options in. To pick from the dropdown, press the field like so:
Once in the field, you'll see a drop-down list. Tap as many items as you want, then press the "done" button in the upper right to have them appear.
You can also add your own list options in. Type out your text and press the "done" arrow on your keyboard, then the done arrow in the upper right of the screen.
5. Adding additional notes in QNOPY
On some questions you may notice a dialogue box to the right of the answer. That allows you to enter additional notes. This comes in handy for things like yes or no questions, where you may want to offer a more detailed explanation.
Click on the box to the right of the question like shown below.
Then, hit save once you've typed something in to make sure it gets added to your form.
Remember to contact support@qnopy with any questions. We hope you enjoy the daily field log!
