Assign Designs to Specific Data Collectors

  • 1.  Assign Designs to Specific Data Collectors

    Not sure if this would be a WorksManager or TBC enhancement, but would it be possible to assign designs to specific data collectors instead of pushing them to everyone? Some designs are intended only for advanced users or require a total station rather than a GPS rover. Being able to assign those designs only to surveyors who know how to use them would help ensure proper use and keep newer users from being overwhelmed with too many designs.

    You can remove a design from a specific machine. But I agree, it could be beneficial to have "device groups" or something that you select from inside TBC when you set up a new design.

    At this time, WorksManager designs published through TBC go to all devices assigned to the project. However, in WM you can assign specific devices to the design in the window of time when it is publishing/converting.

    The question was posted in both forums.

    See my answer here

    It's possible to a certain degrees in WM, but still limited and cumbersome. I'm requesting grouping since 01/2022. But as you know, costumer service ............

    If publishing from TBC, it'd naturally be good to then have the same groups/device filtering/selection available as on WM.
