Once your apps and data have been synced to your mobile device, you can begin to collect records. Collecting records is a straight forward procedure. In this section, we will show you how to create a new record, edit an existing record, and touch on a few of the advanced features and functions.

To better familiarize yourself with Fulcrum on your mobile device you can refer to the iOS and Android parts of the mobile section of the online manual.

Creating a new record in Fulcrum is as simple as tapping on an icon and then entering in the data.

Each time a new record is created the record’s location is captured from the device’s GPS (This information could come from an external GPS that is paired to your mobile device). The location can also be set manually on both iOS and Android devices.

Additionally, the record also captures data for several other metadata fields such as the timestamp and the user that created the record. More information can be found in the system fields section

To create a new record tap on the create new record icon (+) on the right side of the lower menu bar.

This will create a new record at the device's current location. This location can be manually edited if needed. Once you have completed entering in the values for the new record, tap on save text in the top-menu-bar to save the record.
