The Refcom Module allows field engineers to record their Refcom actions, transactions and cylinder data via the mobile application (app). This user guide details how the Refcom module within the Joblogic mobile app can be used.
The Refcom Area
Once the Refcom Module is enabled via the back office, a new ‘Refcom’ section will be added to the ‘Menu’ page of the mobile app. See here for a user guide on enabling the Refcom module via the back office.
By selecting the Refcom option, the field engineer can

Return and transfer cylinders
How to add a new Gas Cylinder

Once the required information is filled in, select the ‘Save’ button to complete the addition of the new cylinder.
The cylinder will now be logged under the ‘My Cylinders’ area and in the back office Refcom module.
