Elements XS overview
What is Elements XS?
Elements XS goes beyond traditional asset and work management technology by providing users a new set of powerful tools to tailor and customize the application to meet the unique needs of their organizations. Designed specifically for smart utilities and governments, Elements XS is an all-inclusive web-based application that can be accessed from anywhere on any device. Elements XS integrates seamlessly with ESRI’s ArcGIS platform as well as utility billing, financial, and ERP applications to leverage an organizations existing technology investments. Elements XS is an all-inclusive application that allows any asset within any department to be managed without purchasing separate modules, and the application works with any standard web browser on any device, in the cloud or on client-side servers. Elements XS users have the ability to further enhance the application by defining unique workflow processes to streamline operations and fulfill the unique business requirements of organizations both small and large.
Elements XS provides robust tools for asset management, work management, inventory control, project management, and reporting analysis. Elements XS Connect, a permitting and citizen engagement site, provides tools for tracking permits, licenses, citizen requests and problem reporters. Elements XS Connect is fully integrated with the Elements XS main application, allowing for a seamless experience to track the life cycle of requests and permits. Elements XS is built on the Microsoft .NET framework and utilizes a Microsoft SQL database. Websites are deployed via IIS and map services published via ArcGIS for Server and/or ArcGIS Online are consumed by Elements XS.
Whether you are in the office or out in the field, Elements XS has you covered. The entire Elements XS application can be accessed when a data connection is present. In areas where no data connection is available, the Elements XS native app, downloadable for IOS and Android devices, is designed for task-based work to be completed in the field. Download your work and maps for offline usage and reconnect when cell service is present. The application can be deployed on premise or in the cloud and accessed using any industry standard web browser on any device, no apps or client-side installations are required.
Elements XS has been designed as an open platform with a standard Microsoft SQL database. All data can be accessed openly using industry standard technologies. Having an open platform allows for integrations with other software to transfer data to and from Elements XS, which acts as a central hub. Our philosophy is to let other applications continue to do what they do best and integrate with them to enhance the overall Asset and Work Management experience.
Elements XS uses the following integration devices:
• Named API- Elements XS has developed a robust API (Application Programming Interface) to interact with other third party systems.
• Webhooks- A webhook (also known as a web callback or HTTP push API) is a way for Elements XS to interact with other applications in real-time. A webhook delivers data to other applications as it happens.
• Workflow Processor- Elements XS includes a workflow processing engine that allows users to analyze data from any combination of third party applications and/or datasets to trigger events within Elements XS based on criteria from external sources.
Key benefits of using Elements XS
Elements XS provides tools to tailor menus, page layouts, map toolbars, and other interface components to reduce clutter and streamline data collection processes. Each user (or group of users) can have a tailored interface that contains toolbars, buttons, map settings, forms, and other functionality specific to their individual job function. Elements XS has been designed to be completely mobile friendly and work on screens as small as a phone. Every page in Elements XS can look and feel like it was designed for the device it is on, whether for a phone or desktop monitor.

3. Workflow Processor

Common uses of the workflow processor include 811 automation (for one-call locates/tickets), SCADA system integrations (to trigger Service Orders when alarms are issued), and fleet management (trigger vehicle maintenance Service Orders based on fuel consumption or other criteria).
4. Workflow Designer
Users can create custom workflows using a drag and drop interface to automate and streamline processes. These workflows can be used to trigger follow-up events, route work to designated personnel, send notifications, and much more. These user-generated custom workflows can be applied to any scenario and provide an unmatched level of customization throughout the application.
5. Utility Billing Integration
