Creating Inspection Records Inspection records are created on customer systems:
4 Ways to Advance the Next Inspection Date The Next Inspection At field controls when the Next Inspection date field updates. But it does not control what that date will be updated to. For example, for a monthly inspection due June 1 st, the next inspection date will be July 1 st. What you are telling the system is when you want the date to change to July 1 st. Do you want it to update… When the June ticket is created? – Select Ticket Created (this is the default). When an appointment is added to the June ticket? – Select Ticket Scheduled. When the June ticket is resolved? – Select Ticket Resolved. When the June ticket is closed? – Select Ticket Closed This is important because the July 1 st inspection ticket cannot be generated until the next inspection date is updated to July 1 st.
3 Ways to Bill Inspections 1. Inspection Item Charges – For use when inspection charges should be a specific agreed to amount. Enter that amount and the invoice item that should be used on the inspection record itself. This will be added to the ticket as a billable Other item. 2. Inspection Linked Recurring – For use when your inspection charges should be billed with the customer recurring, or when the customer recurring represents the inspection charges. Select a recurring line on the inspection record to tie the inspection to. 3. Time and Material – Enter labor, part, and other charges on the inspection ticket and bill for these as normal. Note: None of these are mutually exclusive. You can use all or any combination of the above billing methods on the same inspection ticket.
