Showing a relevant standard or code in reports

Over the years, we’ve received several requests to include a reference to the code or standard to which a defect relates to. The RA Test Results report is effectively a logbook including all the prompts, so does this already, but a summary record as required for products such as portables, doors, hydrants etc., doesn’t. Without including the prompt details in the defect description, it can be difficult to know what the defect is in reference to…until now!

In this release, we’ve provided you with the ability to show some basic standard details on the RA Summary report where defects are recorded. By selecting the box in the generation screen, the Standard, Item No. and Prompt will appear above the defect description. Not that you shouldn’t provide clear detail in any defect description, but this eliminates the need to write out the prompt for those customers who demand it.

We haven’t yet made this a configurable setting, but if you’d like the option to select this by default and have scheduled reports, plus those accessed through the portal, include these prompt details; please contact us to let us know.

How does it all work?

Start by selecting/checking the "Show Prompt Details" on the report generation screen.
