Tracker Place Analysis is Place Analysis turned around. Instead of picking a place and seeing which trackers visited it, you pick a tracker and see every place it has been — with arrival times, departure times and how long it stayed at each one.
Applies to: the Hapn web app at app.gethapn.com and the Hapn mobile app. You need at least one place set up first — see Creating and Managing Places: Complete Guide.
On the mobile app: tap Menu → Reports, choose the Tracker tab and tap Tracker Place Analysis, then pick a tracker. Columns and filters are under the sliders icon (Manage view) at the bottom, next to the alarm clock icon (Schedule) and the download icon (Export CSV). The rest of this article describes the web app.
Which report do I want?
- “Who came to my yard this week?” — use Place Analysis.
- “Where has this machine been?” — use Tracker Place Analysis, below.
Open the report
- Select Reports in the left sidebar.
- Under Tracker Reports, select Tracker Place Analysis.
- On the Pick a tracker to analyze screen, search by name or scroll the list, then select the tracker.
The report opens on the last 7 days. The tracker name at the top left is a dropdown, so you can move to another tracker without starting over.
Reading the table
One row per visit, newest first: Place, Entry Time, Exit Time, Duration and Status. On a completed visit, Status reads Outside — the tracker has since left.
Two things that surprise people:
- Very short durations are normal. A vehicle that drives past the edge of a place, or clips a corner of it, produces a visit measured in seconds. If your table is full of five- and ten-second visits, the place is probably drawn over a road it doesn't need to cover.
- Overlapping places each get their own row. If two of your places cover some of the same ground, one stop can appear twice — once for each place — with different durations.
Use Columns to reorder or hide columns, Filters to narrow the rows, and Export CSV for a spreadsheet copy.
What it's good for
- Settling a “was the crew on site?” question with times rather than memory.
- Checking that a piece of equipment actually went back to the yard at the end of a job.
- Backing up an invoice with time on site — Export CSV, and the dates and durations go with it.
