Document Types can be configured to store geolocation information when users create new documents in the OnBase Mobile Access for iPhone app. In order to capture geolocation information from a mobile device, the OnBase application must have permission to use the device's location within the device's internal settings. Geolocation information storage is configured at the Document Type level in the Configuration client.

When geolocation information storage is configured for the Document Types that are used in OnBase Mobile Access for iPhone, the following information is stored in the database for documents that users create from the New Form or Upload modules:

  • Latitude

  • Longitude

  • Latitude/Longitude Accuracy

  • Altitude Accuracy

  • Heading

To configure document types to store geolocation information, perform the following steps:

  1. In the OnBase Configuration module, navigate to Document | Document Types.
    The Document Types window is displayed.
  2. Select the Document Type to configure.
  3. Click the Geolocation button. The Geolocation Settings dialog box is displayed:
  4. Select the Enable Geolocation Storage check box.
    Note:

    This is the only setting that is required to enable the storage of geolocation information for the selected Document Type in OnBase Mobile. However, in order to proceed, at least one Keyword Type must be added to the list on the right. The remaining options in this dialog box are reserved for the OnBase Integration for Esri. The selected Keyword Type is not indexed with geolocation data from the OnBase Mobile app.

  5. Select a Keyword Type from the list on the left.
  6. Click Add>>.
  7. Click OK.
