Auto-send drill logs
Do you want to always want to send your customer the link to view drill logs in real time?
Use this toggle to decide if Live Geo reports will be automatically sent to the job contact when drilling starts. The job contact will receive an email with a link to see logs, live.
TIP: Even if this setting is toggled on, you will still be able to turn it off for a specific job.

Editing drill/install logs
You can edit the name of any drill or install log option for your organisation. For soil and backfill types, you can also change the associated image. Edits will take effect immediately for staff in the mobile app. It will not change it on any previous logs or reports.
Deleting an option
Means it will no longer be an drill/install log option for your organisation. Deleting a drill or install log option will not delete it from any previous logs or reports.
Adding an option
When adding new soil and backfill types, there's a range of images to choose from. Feel free to get in touch with us if you need more, or if you think there's another material we should add to Live Geo.
If there's something we've missed?
If there's a type of log you don't see in this list, we're interested to hear what it is, and on what kind of jobs you need it. Please get in contact with us on the 0800 phone number below, and we might be able to add it to Live Geo.
