Understanding Offline Mode Data in Exported Reports

Mobile Edit Channel Overview: Feature Lifecycle, Key Concepts, and Data Reference Rules

What Is This Article About?

When a field employee completes a visitation using Offline Mode (Mode Luring), the submitted data follows a different path to the server compared to a standard online submission. Instead of being recorded in real time, the visitation is saved locally on the device, queued in Perlu Dikirim, and synchronized to the server later — sometimes minutes, sometimes hours after the visit actually happened.

To give Client Portal administrators full visibility into how each visitation was performed, the system adds specific metadata columns to exported reports. These columns tell you whether a check-in or check-out was performed online or offline, when the offline data was actually synced to the server, and where the device was at the time of sync. This information is essential for auditing field activity, understanding data freshness, and identifying patterns in your team’s connectivity conditions.

This article explains every offline-related column across the Visitation Report and Task Report exports, what each value means, and how to interpret the different scenarios you’ll encounter in your data.

Who Is This Article For?

This article is written for Client Portal administrators, operations managers, and business stakeholders who export and analyze visitation or task report data. It does not cover the mobile employee’s experience — for that, refer to the Offline Mode knowledge center articles on the mobile visitation flow.

Visitation Report: New Offline-Related Columns

The Visitation Report export now includes four new columns alongside all existing report columns. These columns appear on every exported row — both online and offline visitations.

Check-in Mode and Check-out Mode

These two columns identify whether each action was performed through the standard online flow or through Mode Luring (Offline Mode).

Each column operates independently. A single visitation can have different modes for check-in and check-out — for example, an employee might check in online but lose connection mid-visit and check out offline, resulting in an ONLINE check-in and an OFFLINE check-out. This mixed-mode pattern is common for employees working in areas with intermittent connectivity.

Possible values:

Common combinations you’ll see in practice:

OFFLINE MODE SYNC TIME

This column records the timestamp when offline visitation data was successfully synchronized to the server. For fully online visitations, this column is empty.

Possible values:

The gap between the check-in/check-out timestamps and the OFFLINE MODE SYNC TIME tells you how long the employee was without connectivity. A check-out at 10:00 AM and a sync time at 3:00 PM means the data sat on the device for approximately five hours before reaching the server.

OFFLINE MODE SYNC LOCATION

This column captures the device’s location at the moment the offline data was synchronized — not the location where the visitation was performed. This is a separate data point from the check-in or check-out location.

Possible values:

Selfie Proof Columns

When the visitation policy requires selfie capture, the check-in and check-out proof columns interact with offline submissions in the following ways:

When a selfie proof column shows DELETED BY USER, the related face recognition and liveness validation columns follow the visitation policy behavior — typically showing Not Relevant when those validation features are not applicable.

Geofence Columns

When the visitation policy requires geofence validation, the location and geofence verification columns for offline visitations reflect the location data that was captured during the offline check-in or check-out process. The employee’s device uses the latest available or cached location while in Mode Luring.

Device and App Version

The Check-in Version, Device, OS and Check-out Version, Device, OS columns remain available for offline submissions. The values reflect the app version, device model, and operating system used during the offline action — not at sync time.

Task Report: New Offline-Related Columns

Three task report exports now include two new columns that identify whether each task submission originated from online or offline processing. These columns are added to:

• Export Task Report Raw Data
• Export Compound Report Raw Data
• Export Nested Compound Report Raw Data

Submitted Mode

This column identifies whether the task submission was performed through the standard online flow or through Mode Luring.

Offline Mode Sync At

This column records the timestamp when the offline task submission was received by the server.

Compound and Nested Compound Rows

For compound and nested compound report exports, every child row inherits the parent task submission’s mode. If a task was submitted offline, all compound rows and nested compound rows related to that task show OFFLINE as the Submitted Mode and the same synchronization timestamp in the Offline Mode Sync At column.

The existing compound row mapping, metadata, parent-child relationship, and answer columns remain unchanged.

Important Notes

Only Synced Data Appears in Exports

Submissions that are still pending in the Perlu Dikirim queue — not yet synchronized to the server — are not included in any export. A task submission or visitation only becomes available in the exported report after successful synchronization. Once synchronized, the row appears with Submitted Mode as OFFLINE and the Offline Mode Sync At column populated with the synchronization timestamp.

This means that if you export a report for today and an employee still has unsynced submissions from today sitting in Perlu Dikirim, those records will be missing from the export. They will appear in future exports after they are synced.

Existing Report Behavior Is Unchanged

All existing report columns, filters, export initiation behavior, and file formats remain unchanged. The new offline-related columns are additive — they do not remove, replace, or modify any existing data. The exported file remains readable in the same spreadsheet format used by the current Visitation Report and Task Report exports.

What This Means for You

For operations managers reviewing daily field activity: the Check-in Mode and Check-out Mode columns give you instant visibility into which visits were performed online versus offline. If you see a high proportion of OFFLINE visits for a particular region or team, this may indicate persistent connectivity challenges in those areas.

For data analysts comparing timestamps: the OFFLINE MODE SYNC TIME column explains gaps between when a visit happened (check-in/check-out timestamps) and when the data appeared on the server. A large gap is normal for offline submissions — it reflects the time the employee was in the field without connectivity, not a system delay.

For audit and compliance teams: the OFFLINE MODE SYNC LOCATION column tells you where the device was when the data was synced — this is different from where the visit was performed. The DELETED BY USER value in selfie proof columns flags cases where offline-captured photos were removed from the device before sync, which may warrant follow-up.
