Am I able to Edit Grids within Mobile Screens?

Hi,

I'm new to the product and have been trying modify the mobile workorder screen (FieldServiceMOB_WorkOrders) so that I can easily enter fields on the road. I cannot seem to get this to work ... Edit grid doesn't seem to do anything? When I try this on non Mobile screens it appears to work fine ... is this by design?

Thanks for the help.

ps. In case there is another way to approach this ... what I'm trying to do is: Setup a Route List with a few attached fields that are very easy to edit. For example ... I operate a trash collection business and we charge by the bag. We have a number of stops and thus I have a lot of data that needs to be collected quickly and easily. What I was hoping to do is establish a Route which shows the Customer & Address and then add XL, L, S & Misc. fields for collecting the bag counts....all we would do is add the quantity to the appropriate box at time of pickup (via tablet in the truck) and I could then turn the counts into an invoice later ... this would save us a bunch of time as we have to transfer from paper currently.

Mobile Screen Issues

I'm in the midst of creating a mobile "application" for our field service techs. We've created a number of screen and I would like to create a "Launch Pad" for them when they first log in. My vision is something like:

1. First screen to open is a series of Icons for each of the tasks that the tech may do:
a. Clock In
b. Select a Work Order
c. Add Materials
d. Invoice
e. Etc.

2. With each icon, an existing Mobile screen is launched with a new "Home" or "Launch Pad" button to bring them back to the Launch Pad

Here are my issues:

1. No images/icon on mobile screen. When format the screen for mobile, my icons do not appear.

2. Section Header always appears - I'd like to make it so that the section header is not visable, but no matter how I set it, the header appears (work fine when formated for non-mobile use).

3. Can not open a different screen. It doesn't matter if I choose open screen or open tab, neither option will trigger on the mobile screen.

These are the first issues that I've run up against. Hopefully some one can give me some insight into some ideas of how to work around this.

thanks,
