Overview of the mInspections Web Application

mInspections web application is organized into four sections. They are:

  • My Forms: The My Forms section lists the forms that are in Draft and Published statuses. The count of the total number of forms is displayed on the top right. You can sort forms by Form Name, Status, Last Published By, Last Published, and Created By. When you select a form, you can view the summary on the right side. You can also Create, Search, Edit, Copy, and Archive forms from this section.

  • Scheduler: The Scheduler section allows Form Authors to schedule and assign the published forms to technicians. This section is structured in two tabs.
    • Forms: The Forms tab lists all the published inspections that are either scheduled or unscheduled. You can filter forms by selecting either All, Scheduled, or Unscheduled options at the top of the list. The scheduled forms allow you to view schedule details, modify schedule, and view rounds. You can also search and filter scheduled forms.
    • Inspections: The Inspections tab lists all the scheduled forms that are in Open, In-Progress, and Completed status. It also lists forms that are unassigned to technicians. Forms that are assigned to the technicians and later unassigned are displayed with a partly open status. You can view forms, form details, and inspections. You can also search and filter scheduled forms.

    • Issues: The Issues tab lists all the issues reported by the technicians while filling in the forms. You can also search and filter issues.
