# Weekly Schedules

# **Weekly Schedules**

Weekly schedules in uAuditor allow organizations to automatically assign inspection tasks on selected weekdays at a defined time. This helps ensure recurring inspections are completed consistently without manual coordination.

Weekly scheduling is ideal for inspections that do not need to occur daily but must follow a structured routine across locations.

## **When to Use Weekly Schedules**

Weekly schedules are commonly used for inspections that follow periodic operational review cycles.

Typical examples include:

- branch condition walkthroughs
- supervisor verification checklists
- compliance inspections
- equipment status reviews
- sanitation deep checks
- safety environment inspections

Using weekly schedules ensures regular oversight while reducing unnecessary inspection repetition.

## **How Weekly Schedules Work**

When a weekly schedule is configured:

- one or more weekdays are selected
- an assignment time is defined
- inspection tasks are generated automatically each week
- assigned inspectors receive tasks in the Tasks module
- inspections must be completed within the configured grace period

Each generated task follows the same template structure.

## **Selecting Weekdays for Inspection Tasks**

Weekly schedules allow selecting one or multiple weekdays depending on operational needs.

For example:

- every Monday for branch readiness checks
- every Sunday and Wednesday for compliance verification
- every Friday for equipment inspection routines

Multiple-day scheduling helps distribute inspection responsibilities across the week.

## **Setting the Assignment Time**

The assignment time determines when inspection tasks appear for inspectors.

For example:

- a schedule set for Monday at 9:00 AM creates a task each Monday at that time
- inspectors can begin inspections immediately after assignment
- notifications are triggered at the assignment time if enabled

Selecting the correct time improves inspection completion consistency.

## **Managing Missed Weekly Inspections**

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

- the task status changes to Missed
- supervisors can review completion performance
- follow-up actions can be taken when necessary

Monitoring missed inspections helps maintain accountability across teams.

## **Updating Weekly Schedules**

Weekly schedules can be modified at any time.

You can update:

- selected weekdays
- assignment time
- assigned inspectors
- inspection template
- grace period
- notification settings

Updates apply only to future generated inspection tasks.

## **Best Practices for Configuring Weekly Schedules**

To configure effective weekly schedules:

- align inspection days with supervisor availability
- avoid scheduling multiple inspections at the same time unnecessarily
- distribute inspections evenly across the week
- enable notifications for critical inspections
- review completion performance regularly

Weekly schedules help maintain structured operational monitoring across locations while keeping inspection workloads balanced.
