– a geographic summary of the issues you have recorded,

as well as a tab with the most important news and newest features directly from the reportly team.

Customer Management

Create a new customer

A new customer can be created using the button, which redirects you to a form containing several options regarding the new customer.

Fields marked with * are mandatory. In addition to name, abbreviation, company logo, and additional information/comments, you can also manage evaluation criteria. Furthermore, a template can be loaded which may require additional mandatory fields for communication with contractors.

Edit existing customers

Existing customers can be edited in the customer overview by clicking the gear icon next to the respective customer.

Afterwards, the values defined during creation can be adjusted.

Delete existing customers

Customers can be deleted in the overview using the button located to the left of the customer entry. The action must then be confirmed in a pop-up window.

Project Management

Create a new project

Similar to creating a new customer, a new project is also created via a button. A pop-up window opens, offering configuration options. The mandatory fields are automatically selected based on the chosen customer. These must be filled in to ensure that emails are sent correctly and communication runs smoothly.

Edit existing projects

This process is very similar to editing customers, as editing is also done via the gear icon next to the project. Please note that mandatory fields defined by the customer template cannot be removed.

Delete existing projects

Projects can be removed using the button located on the far right of the respective row. As with deleting customers, all related inspections and data entries will also be deleted.

Managing Contractors

Create new contractors

Just like in previous sections, contractors can also be created using the button, with configuration performed in the pop-up window.

Edit existing contractors

Existing contractors can be easily adjusted using the gear icon located in the same row.

Delete existing contractors

The deletion process works similarly by clicking the button and confirming the action in the pop-up window.

The profile section is where settings and adjustments for the individual user can be made. This includes adding a phone number, changing an email address, and more.

App (please select a topic)

When you open the app for the first time, you will be greeted with a login form that allows you to sign in by entering your credentials and tapping “Continue”. If you forgot your password, you can request a reset by email via “Forgot password?”.

After successful login, you will be taken directly to an overview of your customers. At the top you will find a search bar to quickly find customers. The overview shows the short and full name, logo, and address of your customers for easy navigation. By tapping an entry you get to a list of projects assigned to that customer.

After selecting a customer, you will see an overview of the associated projects. At the top there is a search bar to filter projects. The overview shows each project’s name, address and — if available — the distance to your current location. By tapping you can view the detail view and the inspections for the respective project.

After you have selected a project, you can switch between a detailed overview of the project information and the inspections using the tabs at the top.

To create a new inspection, press the + button at the bottom right. The newly created inspection appears immediately at the top of the list.

To delete an inspection, swipe the inspection entry from right to left and tap the trash icon.

After selecting an inspection, you will see a list of all recorded issues.

To create a new issue, press the + button at the bottom left. You can then add images, description, action and more to the issue.

To delete an issue, swipe the respective entry from right to left and tap the trash icon.

To edit an existing issue, open it with a tap and update the content as needed.

To document circumstances easily, you can add up to three images per issue. While creating or editing, tap the gray area with the camera icon to take a photo, or use the “Upload image” function. The selected image will then appear at the top of the issue overview.

After adding one or more images, you can add markings or highlight specific areas. In the overview, tap the desired image to start the image editor. You can then adjust it with the integrated editor as needed. Don’t forget to save your changes by tapping the button in the top right so they are preserved.

After you have added the required images to your issue, you can use our integrated AI image analysis feature to automatically fill the remaining fields. Tap the “Analyze” button in the issue overview — the analysis starts and automatically generates a description, a title, a recommended action and matching rules based on the image contents. After you have reviewed the AI-generated entries, you can adjust them if necessary and then save the issue as usual.

If you have the plans for the inspected object available and they are uploaded in reportly, you can additionally place the issue on the plan. While creating or editing the issue, scroll to the bottom and click “Place on plan now”. A list of available plans will appear. Select the desired plan and navigate to the location of the issue. Click to set the pin and confirm your selection with the “Position” button at the bottom left.

Once you have recorded all issues, you can view a preview of the report. Go to the overview of all recorded issues and click “Show report”. In the preview you can review all entries and adjust them if necessary.

If all entries are correct, finalize the report by clicking “Complete inspection”. You will then see the intended recipients of the report; individual recipients can be deselected if needed. Click “Send report” to send the report by email.

There can be several reasons why an inspection report is not sent:

  • Not all mandatory fields are filled:
    When creating the project or switching to a different template, essential information for report generation and sending may be missing. To fix this, update and complete your project or contact the responsible person.

  • Recipient not on the whitelist:
    If the intended recipient is not on the company whitelist, emails will be intercepted for security reasons and forwarded to the collection address. In this case, allow the corresponding email domain in the company settings or contact the administrator of your baunow account.

To start the AI analysis in the mobile app, first add one or more images to your issue. Then, in the editing view, tap the orange “Analyze” button at the top — the AI will take over the analysis and fill the remaining fields.
