The Daily Plan screen is the default screen for crew leaders in Aspire Mobile. It contains routes, tickets, materials, scheduled equipment, services, and schedules assigned to you and your team so you can prepare for the current or next day.

Note

  • When your device goes offline while viewing the Daily Plan screen, you will be notified that you are offline when you pull down to refresh the data. Once you are back online, you will be notified that you are online, along with the timestamp for your last data sync. Aspire automatically refreshes your data every 15 minutes. 

  • An Edit Route permission is needed to change route configurations in the Aspire Mobile app.

Below is an overview of the Daily Plan screen.

The daily plan screen with letters indicating the elements described below.

  1. Today: This selector lets you switch between Today and Tomorrow views. The Daily View defaults to Today.

  2. Route: Select the name of your assigned route to filter the Daily Plan screen so you only see Tickets, Materials, Indirect Services, and Scheduled Equipment associated with your routes.

  3. Materials: Lists the estimated materials required to complete the work tickets scheduled for the selected day.

  4. Indirect Services: The indirect services required to complete the work tickets scheduled for the selected day. 

  5. Scheduled Equipment: View equipment scheduled for your work tickets. This tab mirrors the Daily Plan report in Aspire Cloud, giving Crew Leaders quick access to the tools assigned to their route and helping them prepare efficiently for the day ahead.

    Note

    Enabling Snow Mode limits the display to Materials and Indirect Services associated with the Snow division.

  6. Progress Bar: Displays the percentage of hours completed against the total hours scheduled for the day’s work tickets. A status of 100% appears when the total logged hours meet or exceed the scheduled visit hours for all work tickets on that day.

Routes

Routes are a filter on the Daily Plan screen to view tickets assigned to a specific route. Depending on your user role and which routes are assigned, you may be able to view routes assigned to others. Filter routes on the Daily Plan screen by selecting your route and choosing from the list available to you. These routes can then be filtered for the current day or the following day so you can prepare a day in advance. If you select a route that differs from your assigned route, the selected route will be the default for the next 24 hours, even if you log out and back into your account.

Note

  • Updating the route on the Daily Plan screen will also update the route on the Ticket Schedule screen and vice versa.
