By default, the responses for each Checklist item will be ‘free text’. This is preferable in cases where the data being recorded is a variable such as a numeric figure or someone’s name.

Check Result groups allow the user to select from a pre-defined list of responses relevant to the list item, which is useful for fixed results, such as an error code or a yes/no answer.

To create a Check Result group:

1. Click on Utilities → Codes Setup.
2. In the Code Type section, select ‘Check Result.
3. Click ‘New’ to add a new Check Result group
4. In the Code ID field, type a short identifier for this Check Result group
5. If required, enter a more detailed description into the Description field.
6. Click the ‘Add’ button to add a Check Result.
7. Use the ‘Check Result’ column to record the result of the test and the ‘Description’ column to provide more information.
8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until the list is populated.
9. Use the ‘Save’ button to save your changes.

Here are some examples of completed Check Result groups:

Create a new Check Result Group for each list of potential responses.

Default Tickbox

If the tickbox in the ‘Default’ column is ticked, that result will be automatically used when the Checklist is added to a Job.
