"No line template configured" when I draw a line

Drawing a line stops with a message that no line template is configured.

Where: UtilityScout, on the phone or the web map, when you draw a line.

When you finish: you know why the message appeared and who fixes it.


What you see

Drawing a line stops with a message that no line template is configured.

On screen: Pick a span or custom line template from the toolbar options first.

Short answer: your configuration does not have a line type for what you are drawing. A gap in setup, not a fault, and not something to fix from the field.


Why it happens

  • Someone built the configuration quickly and left line templates for later.

  • You need a kind of line that is not a span, such as a guy run or a cable, and the setup does not include it.


Fix it

  1. Tell your admin what you wanted to draw, in your own words (a span between two poles, a down guy, a cable), and which job you were in.

  2. The admin adds it in the configuration: set the span template, or add a custom line type. See Set up your configuration, stage by stage.

  3. Reopen the job and try again.

Configuration from a Katapult import? The template pickers are hidden on that stage, so an admin cannot add a new span or custom line template there. Ask us; we make that change for you.
