  2. Click Search.

  3. In the Intervention groups table, next to an intervention group, click the Three dots menu.

  4. To generate a copy of the group, click Duplicate.

Add mobile cards rules

To configure how specific mobile cards appear to different users or during different intervention states:

  1. Select Mobile cards rules.

  2. To define a combination of intervention state and user type, click + Add rule.

    • Code: Enter a mandatory alphanumeric code to identity the rule.

    • Description: You can enter a description of how the rule works.

    • Active: You can check the box if the rule is active and searchable.

      • If you set a section (like “Existing Meter”) to “Invisible”, the system alerts you to remove the mobile card from these rules as well.

      • If you set a hidden section to “Visible”, you must explicitly add the card type back to the rule list here to ensure technicians can see it.

    • User types: Indicate which user types can use the rule.

    • Intervention states: Indicate which intervention states trigger the rule.
