Data fields are entered within a Maintenance Task. If you haven't already started entering your Maintenance Task, select the link below then refer back to this page. 

Steps to Add a Data Field with a Text Field:

1. Under the maintenance task information you have already entered select "+ Add Data Field"

2. If it is not required that this Data Field is entered to complete the task, uncheck the box next to "required"

3. If the data is confidential, check the box next to "Is Confidential"

4. Enter the Label you want on this text box

5. From the drop down box next to Field Type, Select "Text" or "Text Area". This will provide the user with a box to enter either a small "Text" answer, or a "Text Box" will provide more space for a larger amount of information

6. Select "Save Task" when you have added all the data fields necessary

7. When you have completed the rest of the instruments tasks select "Finish"
