Preface
This guide is for Operators who execute rounds in the mRounds mobile app. It explains the conventions, related information, and support contacts used throughout the guide.
Overview of mRounds
As an Operator, use mRounds to follow planned inspection routes, record asset readings, report abnormal conditions, and pass accurate information to the next shift.
Start Your Shift
Start each shift by signing in, confirming the correct work context, reviewing the previous handover, and making sure the rounds you need are available.
Find and Claim Your Rounds
Use the Rounds screen to begin assigned work, claim an open round, create an ad hoc round from an available predefined plan, or release work you cannot continue.
Execute the Round
Execute a round by following the route, verifying each asset when required, completing the configured tasks, handling exceptions, and submitting the finished record.

Close Your Shift
End the shift by bringing active work to a safe stopping point, recording unresolved conditions, and submitting a clear handover to the incoming shift.
Find and Manage Rounds, Issues, and Actions
Use search and filters when you need to find a specific round, Issue, or Action without scanning every record in the list.
Troubleshoot Common Problems
Use this guidance when a round, scan, response, handover, or synchronization step does not work as expected.
Customize Your Settings
Use your profile settings to keep the app aligned with your plant, unit, position, shift, language, and preferred display.

Create and Manage Issues

Use Issues to record abnormal conditions found during rounds and track them from creation through ownership, investigation, resolution, and closure.

Use an Issue when a new finding must remain visible after the current task or round. If you are unsure whether the workflow calls for an Issue or an Action, see Choose an Issue or an Action.

Follow the Issue lifecycle

Create the Issue and record the finding, priority, location or asset, and supporting details.
Assign the Issue to yourself only when you are responsible for investigating or resolving it.
Record progress while the condition is investigated.
Resolve and close the Issue after the required work and resolution details are complete.

After creating or updating the Issue during round execution, return to the round and continue the remaining tasks.
