Collection data types are data that a worker (or system) records at points throughout an activity.
They are meant to communicate with an external device. However, you may also input the information on the Activity Maintenance form.
Example
A refrigerated trailer must sustain a certain temperature throughout an activity. You can set up collection data types to force the driver to maintain a temperature record at different points during the activity.
Activity Collection Data Types
The Activity Collection Data Types form allows the user to create Collection Data Types. Users may add a description and are required to choose a Data Type. The Data Types include: Integer, Real, String, and Boolean. The Data Type chosen should be appropriate for the data being captured.
Logistics Execution > Setup > Activity Collection Data Types
Activity Templates
The user can assign Collection Data Types to an Activity Template. Once attached to the template, the Collection Data Type can be recorded on Activities using that particular Activity Template.
