bAdmin is our administration tool for your bMoves. In short, this is where you tailor bMoves to your use. You can completely configure bMoves to your needs. Configuring bMoves will enable you to control what your team can record on the field, which activities they perform and what form they fill.
You can access bAdmin on https://badmin.digital/
If you don't have an account, you can create one for free now.
The dashboard is the center of bAdmin where you can access everything from bAdmin as well as the other tools of the solution. The dashboard features tiles displaying a information and useful link to you.
On top of your screen, next to the bAdmin logo, you have access to two menu tabs, organisation and configuration.
Please note that when you delete a bMoves data, it will remain visualizable in bVision for as long as your historical availability defined in your subscription. However, you are not able to use it anymore in bMoves app or bConfig, nor edit it in bAdmin.
Branches are subdivision within your organization. They are used when your operations are separated between several geographical or administrative subdivision. They enable you to organize your operators, vehicles and equipment better. They also enable a quicker visualization of your interventions by enabling you to select interventions done by operators attached to a specific branch.
To delete a branch, click on the pen in the top right corner and then press on the red button "Delete". Be careful, if you delete your last branch your usage of bMoves will be strongly limited.
bMoves creates a default branch for you when you register. But you can create a new branch by clicking on the "+" icon in the upper menu (top right) and then selecting a new branch.
In the branch creator, the only mandatory field is the name of your branch. You should also change the location of your branch by dragging the pin on the map. This will enable our maps visualization to directly center on the approbriate branch.
You can also enter the altitude of the location of your branch as well as upload a picture of your branch.
If you have two or more branches, a branch selector appears on top of your screen, next to "Configuration".
Operators are the people who perform an intervention. 3 types of operators exist :
An operator belongs to a branch. You have to select the correct branch to which the operator belongs to see him or her in the list.
When you click on "Operator" on the left menu, you open the operator screen. This screen enables you to view every operator of the currently selected branch. Click on an operator in the list to open the summary. You can also use the search bar to search for a specific operator.
You can edit any operator by clicking on the pen in the top right corner. This will open the edition form where you can change information about the operator. Note that the phone and email are not editable because they are linked to the user.

A measurement is something you measure in the usage of your equipment. For example, the speed of your vehicle, if your vehicle is on or off, your spraying quantity and much more.

With bMoves you can create and configure your equipment. A equipment is something mounted on your vehicle or used by hand, such as a mower, a sprayer, an excavator,... To measure what the equipment is doing, you can attach measurements to it. If you have a ConnectHub or ConnectHub GEO, those data automatically come from your vehicle. Learn more about the ConnectHub or subscribe to ConnectHub directly.

Activities are what operators are doing in the field. They enable you to know what an operator is doing. When you create an activity you can get several options and features that enable you to get more information.
An activity belongs to a category. Categories of activity are used to organize activities for your operators to access the activity quickly, as well as for simple and good visualization on bVision. A category has a name and a color. The color is used to draw the path taken during the intervention in bVision and RWIS. Check our dedicated course for more information.
Once you have at least one category, you can create activities. To create an activity, open the Activities menu by clicking on "Activities management" in the left menu and then "Activities". This display the full list of all your activities. You can edit one by clicking on the pen button in the upper right corner. You can also create a new activity using the "+" button next to the Activities title.
An activity has a name, a code (for quick identification) and belongs to a category of activities. It can also have a form. Check section 8 of this course for more information about forms.
Next, you can select different types for this activity :
Your intervention can cumulate several types. For example, you can have an exclusive activity with options or a punctual and exclusive activity.
With our forms feature, you can create a form to get more insights about an activity or to have your users fill reports directly on the field. By default, we created an example form for you. But you can create the form you need. To do so, you first need to create field templates.
Field templates are elements you use to create the form. They can be of several types :
A field template has a name and a label. The name is used for you to identify the field templates and act as the default label. However, if you fill the Label field, you will create a specific label. For dropdown fields, you can click on "Add a field" to add new value in it. The field Key is what the operator will be able to pick and the field value is the value attached to this field.
When you put a field of type catalog of consumable items in your form, operators will be able to pick the consumable used in a list of all consumable available. You can create this list of consumable items in bAdmin. Click on the "pen" button in the top right corner and click on the "+" button next to Consumable items on the left to create a new consumable item.
When you create a new consumable item, you have to enter the following information :
Now that you have your field templates and consumable items created, you can create your form. By default we created an example of a form for you, you can either edit this form or create a new one. All the forms you have are available in the forms tab by clicking on "Form" on the left menu and then clicking on "Form" on the sub-menu.
You can edit an existing form by clicking on the "pen" button in the top right corner. You can create a new form by clicking on the "+" button on the left.

On the left of your screen, you can see an overview of what your form will look like for your operators.
You can tailor your form by changing some information for each field :
When your form is ready with all the fields you need, click on "Save".
The last thing to do for your operator to be able to use the form, you have to link it to an activity. As described above you can do this directly in an activity. Open the activity you want and click on the select "Form" to choose the form you want to link to this activity. Press "Save" when it's done.
You can also link the form to an activity directly from your form.
