Overview
FastField Asset & Team Tracking provides a real-time, map-based view of your company's assets and field team. From a single interactive interface, you can:

By connecting your existing Data Tables with live mobile app data, this feature eliminates guesswork and gives you full visibility into your field operations.
💡 Tip: Asset & Team Tracking centralizes your field operations into one view, helping you make faster and more informed decisions.
Key use cases
Asset & Team Tracking helps you quickly answer important operational questions:
Where is my equipment right now?
View real-time asset locations by connecting Data Tables that include GPS coordinates. Each asset appears as a clickable pin with detailed information.
Who is the closest available technician?
See all checked-in team members on the map. Identify the nearest technician to a job site and dispatch work directly from their location.
What is my technician working on?
Open a team member's profile to view a live timeline of:
Check-ins and check-outs
Form submissions
Breaks
Location breadcrumbs throughout their shift
Does this asset need maintenance?
Use rules-based pin styling to visually highlight asset conditions. For example, change a pin color to red when maintenance is required.
How long was a technician on-site?
Check-in and check-out events are automatically logged with timestamps and reverse-geolocated addresses, providing accurate time-on-site data.
How do I connect dispatches to specific assets?
Use tagging to link dispatches directly to Data Table records, creating structured and searchable associations instead of relying on manual text entry.
