Getting started
Set up AquaTrace in a few steps: create an account, add your first building and pools, configure thresholds and invite colleagues.
This guide walks you through the complete setup of AquaTrace in six steps — from creating your account to your first measurement. Each step links to a detailed guide with more information.
1. Create an account
Go to the sign-up page and create an account for your organization. You enter the company name, your name, email address and a password. The first user automatically becomes Admin and can then configure everything.
For more on logging in, forgotten passwords and invitations, see Sign-in & account.
2. Add your first building
A building is a location with one or more pools. After signing up, you arrive at the buildings overview, still empty. In the management menu, go to Buildings and add your first location with a name and address.
You can find more detail in Buildings.
3. Set up pools
Open your building and go to Pools. Create a pool for each basin and decide which parameters are measured (such as pH, free chlorine and temperature), which are manual or automatic, and which are required. See Pools.
4. Determine thresholds
Set the limit values against which every measurement is checked. Thresholds work at three levels — company, building and pool — where a more specific level overrides the more general one. See Thresholds.
5. Invite your team
Invite your colleagues via Users. For each person, you choose a role (User, Reporting or Admin) and the buildings they have access to. See Users.
6. Start measuring
Everything is ready. Users can now record measurements — even offline — while Admins and Reporting users track water quality through the dashboard and reports. See Recording measurements.
