Working with Inspection Conditions

You can apply conditions (such as Hold, Lock, or Notice) to inspections as needed. Civic Platform automatically applies any condition assigned to an Inspection Group and/or Type to a scheduled inspection.

An inspection condition can impact a checklist, determining whether users can edit the checklist or not.

You can view the conditions associated with an inspection on the Conditions tab. Conditions applied to an inspection also display in the Condition status bar in the inspection portlet. Condition Status Bar
