# Daily Schedules

# **Daily Schedules**

Daily schedules in uAuditor allow organizations to automatically assign inspection tasks to inspectors at a fixed time every day. This ensures critical operational checks are performed consistently without requiring manual task creation.

Daily scheduling is commonly used for routine inspections that must be completed as part of standard operating procedures.

## **When to Use Daily Schedules**

Daily schedules are ideal for inspections that must be repeated every working day.

Common examples include:

- opening and closing checklists
- hygiene inspections
- safety walkthroughs
- equipment readiness checks
- shift-based operational verifications
- temperature monitoring routines

Using daily schedules helps maintain consistent execution across locations.

## **How Daily Schedules Work**

When a daily schedule is configured:

- a task is created automatically each day
- the task appears at the selected assignment time
- assigned inspectors receive the task in their Tasks module
- the inspection must be completed within the defined grace period

Each generated task follows the same template structure.

## **Setting the Assignment Time**

The assignment time determines when the inspection task becomes available.

For example:

- a schedule set for 8:00 AM creates a task at 8:00 AM each day
- inspectors can begin the inspection immediately after assignment
- notifications are sent at this time if enabled

Selecting the correct assignment time helps align inspections with operational workflows.

## **Understanding the 24-Hour Cycle**

Daily schedules repeat every 24 hours based on the configured assignment time.

This means:

- each task is generated at the same time every day
- inspectors receive predictable inspection routines
- completion tracking remains consistent across reporting periods

Maintaining consistent timing improves inspection reliability.

## **Managing Missed Daily Inspections**

If an assigned inspection is not completed within the grace period:

- the task status becomes **Missed**
- the inspection remains visible in the Tasks module
- supervisors can follow up with responsible inspectors

Monitoring missed inspections helps maintain accountability.

## **Updating Daily Schedules**

Daily schedules can be edited at any time to adjust:

- assignment time
- inspectors
- template selection
- grace period
- notification settings

Changes apply only to future generated tasks.

## **Best Practices for Configuring Daily Schedules**

To configure effective daily schedules:

- align inspection timing with shift start or end times
- assign inspectors responsible for each location
- set realistic grace periods
- enable notifications for critical inspections
- monitor completion performance regularly

Daily schedules help organizations maintain consistent inspection coverage and improve operational discipline across all locations.
