Look up inspection equipment offline

The serial number matches, but when was the item last inspected? The Memida App can now answer questions like this even where mobile reception does not reach. The new offline feature brings inspection equipment records, report details, and selected files directly to the point of use, from the warehouse to the construction site.

Once enabled, the iOS and Android app handles regular updates automatically when connected. You no longer need to synchronize manually before every lookup.

Sign and verify locally

Whether a PDF or a digital calibration certificate in DCC format, Memida Signing applies a company seal to your files directly on your computer. The free desktop app also processes documents from other systems. It saves sealed copies and leaves the originals unchanged.

Local sealing requires a valid, supported company certificate, but no Memida account. The app also helps recipients: existing seals can be verified without a certificate of your own. The documents are not uploaded in the process.

From measured values to a calibration certificate

From a series of measurements to the finished document, many details need to come together: measurement requirements, reference devices, actual values, and their evaluation. Memida now combines them in a guided certificate creation workflow directly on the inspection equipment. The result is a digital calibration certificate (DCC) with machine-readable XML and a readable PDF representation.

The feature supports documenting a calibration that has actually been performed. Measurement and technical responsibility for the procedure and measurement uncertainty remain with the laboratory performing the calibration.

Import calibration certificates

When several calibration certificates arrive from the lab, the work often starts with transferring details and finding the corresponding inspection equipment. The new import under Inspection reports → Import brings these tasks together: Memida reads PDF and DCC files, suggests matches, and prepares the inspection reports for review.

This lets you process larger batches of documents together while retaining responsibility for the technical decision on each result.

Group Inspection Equipment

Inspection kits, measurement stations, and other related equipment can now be represented in Memida as a Group / set. This keeps it clear in the inspection equipment list which items are used together without merging their individual inspection equipment files.

A group is a structural container, not an additional physical piece of inspection equipment. Its members retain their own master data, inspection intervals, inspection reports, and inspection instructions. The group automatically inherits the most critical status from its active members.

Keep Notices and Changes in View

The dashboard now brings together open notices, required actions, and unread changes to inspection equipment in the shared Notices & activity card. This puts the most important next steps directly beside the charts, without requiring you to switch between individual notices and lists.

Company and cost center filters also apply to this work list. This ensures that metrics, charts, notices, and changes always refer to the same accessible data scope.

Edit Inspection Equipment Quickly

Many changes to inspection equipment are small but frequent in daily work: correcting a serial number, changing a cost center, adding a location, or maintaining an additional field. For these cases, the full inspection equipment file no longer has to be opened every time. The inspection equipment list can edit selected fields directly.

Double-clicking an editable cell opens the matching editor in place. The change is saved and the list stays in the working context.

Import Inspection Equipment in a Structured Way

The new inspection equipment import turns a spreadsheet into a controlled workflow. Memida reads CSV, Excel, and OpenDocument files, recognizes matching columns, checks each row, and shows before saving which data can be imported, corrected, or intentionally skipped.

This makes the import useful not only for initial data migration, but also for regular updates. Existing inspection equipment can be updated via its Memida ID, while new inspection equipment is created from rows that do not yet refer to the existing inventory.

Plan Due Inspection Equipment in the Calendar

With the new calendar, Memida gets an operational month view for due inspection equipment. Due dates are no longer visible only as a list or metric, but as a concrete distribution of appointments: you can see on which days work will occur, where inspection equipment clusters, and which items are affected on a specific day.

The calendar complements the existing inspection equipment list, dashboard, and reporting. The inspection equipment list remains the place for details and editing, the dashboard shows the current status, reporting evaluates periods, and the calendar supports concrete monthly planning.

Evaluate Due Dates, Escalations, and Quality

With the new reporting page, Memida now has a dedicated view for operational metrics around inspection equipment, due dates, and evidence. While the dashboard shows the current daily status, reporting evaluates a selected period: How well did the selected period perform, and where is action needed?

The view combines due dates, escalations, documentation quality, and calibration backlog without mixing these values. This makes it a compact working basis for quality management, audit preparation, and calibration planning.
