# Generating QR Codes for Templates

# **Generating QR Codes for Templates**

The QR Code for Templates feature in uAuditor allows organizations to start inspections instantly by scanning a QR code linked to a specific inspection template. This simplifies inspection workflows and ensures inspectors always use the correct checklist at the right location.

QR-based inspections improve speed, accuracy, and compliance across operational environments.

## **What Is a Template QR Code?**

A template QR code is a scannable code linked directly to an inspection template. When scanned using the mobile app:

- the correct inspection template opens automatically
- the inspection starts immediately
- the inspector avoids manual template selection
- inspection consistency improves across locations

This supports faster execution in field environments 📱

## **Why Use QR Codes for Templates**

Using QR codes helps organizations:

- reduce time spent searching for templates
- ensure inspectors use the correct checklist
- simplify inspections at equipment or stations
- standardize inspections across branches
- improve compliance tracking accuracy
- support self-guided inspection workflows

QR codes are especially useful in high-frequency inspection environments.

## **When to Use Template QR Codes**

QR codes are commonly used for:

- equipment inspections
- kitchen station checks
- safety verification points
- facility area inspections
- maintenance checkpoints
- compliance verification zones

They allow inspections to start directly at the inspection location.

## **How to Generate a QR Code for a Template**

To generate a QR code:

1. Open the Templates module
2. Select the required inspection template

It creates a structured and efficient inspection experience across sites.

## **Best Practices for Using Template QR Codes**

To implement QR-based inspections effectively:
