Introduction to Checklists
Checklists are lists of questions to be answered / filled out by Employees in particular situations.
1. For example, an Employee may be required to fill out a Checklist on first starting the first Task of the Job.
The Checklist could contain questions like
- Has a deposit been received? If so how much and what date was it received?
- Has an invoice been raised for the balance?
- Have all required material purchases been placed for this Job?
2. As another example, a factory based Employee may be required to fill out a Checklist when they are about to load a truck with finished goods.
The Checklist could contain questions like
- How many items are to be loaded?
- Have all items been quality control checked by you?
- Has the truck driver signed our documentation?
3. For another example, an Employee may be required to fill out a Checklist when they first start an on-site Task.
The Checklist may contain questions like
- Have you been inducted in onsite procedures?
- Has the site's Health and Safety Policies been explained to you?
- Are all Hazards clearly identified
4. There are two special types of checklists that are used when
- Clicking on the Back From Lunch button
For more information see The Clock In Checklist and The Back From Lunch Checklist.
You can have an unlimited number of Checklists - but each Checklist must have a unique name.
Each Checklist can have an unlimited number of any sort or type of questions that you wish to have.
Checklists have Checklist Triggers.
A Checklist Trigger is an event (e.g. clicking on a Green Start button in the Factory version) that displays the Checklist for the Employee to fill out.
Employees answer each question with a tick box yes or no or provide a brief comment before continuing past the Checklist Trigger event.
