How do I create an assessment using the LiveAssess data captured crush-side?

Importing your LiveAssess data to AuctionsPlus Assessment Entry portal allows you to create the assessment platform via a dedicated interface.

Summary

Assessments are captured manually (on paper form) on-site and later manually entered to the AuctionsPlus platform via the dedicated Assessment Entry interface. Double handling of data can be time consuming and introduces the potential of manual error.

LiveAssess is a mobile solution designed to allow the assessor to capture assessment data on-site, and then automatically load that data to the AuctionsPlus platform. This document offers simple guidance through the following phases.


⚠️ Users of iPhone 15 (or later) will experience an Apple iOS bug where images captured and saved locally at the default 24 megapixel HEIC format cannot be uploaded to external platforms (including AuctionsPlus LiveAssess and Assessment Entry).

Users are advised to change their iPhone camera defaults settings from 24 to megapixels (MP) to 12 megapixels (MP).

Step 2 - Locate ‘Import from LiveAssess’

Whilst a fresh assessment can be created directly from the LiveAssess Import Manager, user may find it most convenient to import directyly from the ‘new’ assessment.

Follow the existing process in either creating a new assessment, copying a previously used assessment or updating an existing assessment

Open the assessment and select the ‘Import from LiveAssess’ button

If the LiveAssess job utilised a template that included the Draft Pen field, the assesor may then create split captured data across multiple assesment. If this is the case, the Assessor will be prompted to select which pen(s) to include in the assessment

Select IMPORT - Note that by importing, any existing information in this assessment will be overwritten by the corresponding import data.

The data that you collected in LiveAssess will be auto filled into your assessment. Depending upon the data captured there may be other fields that will require populating.

📝 If you cannot find the assessment, you may need to sync your data. Please see our Help Article: How do I sync LiveAssess data to the Assessment Entry portal?
