Creating Inspections
The uAuditor mobile app allows users to create inspections directly from their smartphone or tablet using predefined templates. This enables inspectors and supervisors to perform structured audits on-site and capture results immediately 📱
Mobile inspections help ensure faster execution and real-time reporting across locations.
When to Create an Inspection from the Mobile App
Users typically create inspections when:
- performing routine branch inspections
- conducting equipment checks
- verifying compliance requirements
- completing scheduled audit visits
- responding to operational incidents
Inspections can be created anytime based on assigned permissions.
Steps to Create an Inspection
To create a new inspection:
- Open the uAuditor mobile app
- Navigate to Inspections
- Tap Create Inspection
- Select the required inspection template
- Choose the location
- Select equipment if required (optional)
- Tap Start Inspection
The inspection opens immediately for answering questions.
Selecting the Correct Template
Templates define what questions appear during the inspection.
Examples include:
- hygiene checklists
- safety inspections
- equipment monitoring forms
- operational audits
- compliance verification checklists
Choosing the correct template ensures accurate reporting.
Selecting the Inspection Location
Each inspection must be linked to a location.
This allows:
- proper report classification
- accurate performance tracking
- location-based analytics
- assignment visibility for supervisors
Location selection ensures inspections appear in the correct branch records.
Supporting Equipment-Based Inspections
If the template includes equipment selection:
Users can:
- choose the relevant asset
- perform equipment-specific checks
- attach asset-level evidence
- track equipment performance over time
This improves maintenance visibility.
Creating Inspections Offline
The mobile app supports offline inspection workflows.
If internet connectivity is unavailable:
- inspections can still be completed
- answers are saved locally
- evidence is stored securely
- data syncs automatically when connectivity returns
This ensures uninterrupted field operations.
Example Use Case
Example scenario:
A branch supervisor arrives for a daily hygiene inspection.
Using the mobile app, they:
- open the inspection module
- select the hygiene checklist template
- choose the branch location
- start answering inspection questions immediately
The completed inspection becomes available for reporting and follow-up actions.
Best Practices for Creating Inspections
To create inspections efficiently:
- select the correct template before starting
- confirm the correct location is chosen
- attach evidence where required
- complete all mandatory questions
- sync inspections after working offline if needed
Creating inspections from the uAuditor mobile app enables teams to perform structured audits quickly and maintain real-time visibility across operational locations.
