We have launched our initial Workforce & Collector project.  Our Dispatcher needs metrics to report to his supervisor.  It would be helpful to have the ability to export the Assignments list (by whatever filter you choose to apply) as a csv or even a PDF. 

The Dispatcher would like to be able to easily show his supervisor that they are now accomplishing more inspections than before.  Reporting tools to help display the amount of assignments completed over time would show that the team has increased efficiency and productivity by using Workforce & Collector  This justifies the use of the technology and also provides numbers to support requests for more resources.  Those metrics can then be used to promote the adoption of these mobile GIS apps for other projects and teams throughout the department.

Hi.

ArcGIS do provide an API for workforce - which does allow exporting of complete lists of all assignments as a csv file - but it is fair to say that this really needs to be managed by a back-end system and is not really user-friendly. I use a Linux-based system (actually a Raspberry Pi) which automatically downloads all the assignments from a project, and emails a distribution list a csv file containing the date the assignment became "In Progress", the Location, Worker and Notes. My Client only needs assignments which have Notes completed, so I filter to just include these. Happy to provide more details if you wish.

Kind regards,

Jonathan
