Associate dynamic numeric ranges in the inspection forms.

Currently it is possible to include conditional settings using a numeric range with fixed values, but for business case these values should be dynamic and depend on the asset.

Business case:

Our client wants to display in the inspection form results a response field depending on the other response field value.

Let´s say: If the response field A value is between 10 and 20 then display the response field B.

We can configure that using conditional setting to the response field A:

          If the answer is (> 10 and < 20) Then set visible the response field B.

That is OK, but the problem is that the 10 and 20 are not fixed values.

The really is these values are the limits of a condition monitor point of the asset. The response field A is a meter reading, if the value is out the range (out of the limits of a condition monitoring point), Then display the response field B that is a warning to the inspector on field.

So, the inspection form should include variables as numeric ranges, in specific be able to include the warning limit of condition monitoring point.

If it is not possible set up dynamic values, the user administrator should create an inspection form for each asset. For example, if the client has over 10000 assets with different limits of a condition monitor point, the client should create over 10000 inspection forms (one for each asset).
