Scaftra + Field Capture: Structured Field Data for Finish Trade Install Projects

Field crews doing cabinet or countertop field measures, installation walkthroughs, or punch list inspections need a way to capture structured data on-site: room dimensions, material conditions, photos, and signatures. Paper forms and phone photos end up in disconnected places, and the office team spends time chasing information that should flow back automatically.

With the Field Capture integration, field crews capture measurements, photos, completion checklists, and client signatures in Field Capture's mobile app on-site. That data syncs back to the Scaftra project automatically, updating room records and attaching documentation without any manual re-entry.

What this integration does

Field Capture is a mobile forms and inspection platform that lets you build structured digital forms for any field workflow. Scaftra's integration with Field Capture connects your on-site data collection directly to your project records. When a crew completes a field measure form or an installation sign-off checklist in Field Capture, the result flows into Scaftra and is associated with the correct project and room. This is especially important for field measure sessions, where accurate room dimensions need to reach the fabricator quickly, and for installation completions, where photo proof and client signatures are the record of done.

How data moves

Field Capture to Scaftra
  • Form submissionsCompleted Field Capture forms including field measure sheets, installation checklists, and inspection reports are received by Scaftra and associated with the matching project and room.
  • Measurements and dimensionsNumeric measurements captured in Field Capture field measure forms are synced into Scaftra room records, giving the office team accurate dimensions without transcription from paper.
  • Photos and attachmentsPhotos taken within the Field Capture mobile app during site visits or install completions are attached to the Scaftra project record as proof documentation.
  • Field crew signaturesClient or crew signatures captured in Field Capture on installation sign-off forms are preserved and attached to the corresponding Scaftra room or project record.
  • Completion timestampsThe date and time a Field Capture form is submitted is recorded in Scaftra, giving an accurate log of when field work was completed at the room level.
Scaftra to Field Capture
  • Project detailsScaftra sends project name, address, and reference information to Field Capture so field crews can identify the correct form context when they arrive on-site.
  • Room listThe list of rooms in scope for the visit is pushed to Field Capture so crews can complete a form per room without manually entering room names.
  • Work order referencesScaftra sends relevant order or work order references to Field Capture forms so that field data is tagged to the correct order for downstream fabrication or scheduling.
  • Assigned crew informationThe crew members assigned to the field visit in Scaftra are passed to Field Capture so forms are routed to the right mobile devices and submissions are attributed to the correct team members.

How to set it up

  1. Set up your Field Capture account and form templates
    Build your field measure, installation checklist, and sign-off form templates in Field Capture's form builder. Scaftra provides starter templates for common finish trade field measure and install workflows.
  2. Connect Field Capture to Scaftra
    In Scaftra's integration settings, enter your Field Capture API credentials to authorize the connection. Scaftra will verify the connection and display your available Field Capture form templates for mapping.
  3. Map Field Capture forms to Scaftra workflows
    In the integration settings, link each Field Capture form template to its corresponding Scaftra workflow stage: field measure forms map to the field measure phase, installation forms map to the install phase, and so on. This tells Scaftra which room records to update when a form is submitted.
  4. Assign field visits in Scaftra, capture in Field Capture
    When you schedule a field measure or install visit in Scaftra, the assigned crew receives the project and room context in their Field Capture mobile app. They complete the form on-site and submit. Scaftra receives the data and updates the room record automatically.

What it enables

  • Field measure to order pipeline: Measurements captured in Field Capture on a field measure visit flow directly into Scaftra's field measure record for the room. The office team can review and approve the dimensions and place the fabrication order without waiting for a phone call or email from the field.
  • Photo proof tied to rooms: Photos taken in Field Capture during install walkthroughs are attached to the Scaftra room record as proof-of-completion documentation. This creates a permanent, timestamped visual record at the room level without any file transfer or manual upload.
  • Client and crew signatures on-site: Field Capture's signature capture lets clients or GC representatives sign off on completed work on-site. Those signatures sync to Scaftra and can be referenced in billing or lien waiver conversations.
  • Structured checklists replace paper: Field Capture's form builder supports branching logic, required fields, and mandatory photos, so field crews follow a consistent process every time. The data Scaftra receives is structured and complete rather than free-form notes that need interpretation.
  • Offline-capable mobile forms: Field Capture's mobile app works offline and syncs when connectivity is restored. Field crews in buildings with poor signal can complete their forms during the visit and sync automatically once they are back on the network.

Frequently asked questions

Does my field crew need to learn Scaftra to use Field Capture on-site?
No. Field crews interact only with the Field Capture mobile app on-site. Scaftra receives the data in the background. Only the office team and project managers need to work directly in Scaftra.
What happens if a Field Capture form is submitted for the wrong project?
Scaftra maps Field Capture submissions based on the project reference sent to Field Capture when the visit is assigned. If a crew selects the correct project context in Field Capture, the submission routes correctly. Forms submitted without a valid project reference are flagged in Scaftra for manual review rather than auto-associated.
Can I build custom Field Capture forms for my specific trade workflow?
Yes. Field Capture's form builder is fully customizable. You can build field measure forms tailored to cabinet, countertop, or any other finish trade workflow. The Scaftra integration maps form fields to the corresponding Scaftra data points based on the mapping you configure in integration settings.
Does the Field Capture integration work for punch list walkthroughs?
Yes. You can create punch list inspection forms in Field Capture that include photo capture and per-item sign-off. Submitted punch list forms attach to the Scaftra project as documentation. Dedicated punch list management within Scaftra handles the workflow tracking side.
Is the Field Capture integration available on all Scaftra plans?
The Field Capture integration is available on Scaftra paid plans. Check the current pricing page for plan-level details on integration availability.
