Prerequisites

Steps

- Set User Permissions for the Inspections Tool
Configure the Inspections Tool's Settings
- Navigate to the project's Inspections tool.
- Click the Configure Settings
icon.
- Click Configurations.
- Force user to create an Observation on item failure: Mark the checkbox if you would like 'Standard' or 'Admin' users to be taken directly into the observation creation screen when they mark an inspection item as Failed.
Notes:- Observation creation upon item failure will only be enforced if the user performing the inspection has 'Standard' or 'Admin' permissions on the Observations tool.
- If the creation of an observation is cancelled, Procore will reset the status of the inspection item to 'No Status'.
- The user performing the inspection must have permission to create an observation and must be using Procore for iOS version 6.11 or later or Procore for Android version 6.6.27 or later. If these conditions are not met, then the user will still be able to perform inspections and create observations, but they will not be automatically prompted to create an observation if they mark an inspection item as 'Fail'.
- Private by default: Mark this checkbox if you would like all inspections created to be private by default. This means that only 'Admin' users, members of the distribution list and users designated as 'Assignee(s)' will have access to the inspection.
- Force user to create an Observation on item failure: Mark the checkbox if you would like 'Standard' or 'Admin' users to be taken directly into the observation creation screen when they mark an inspection item as Failed.
