  1. Snippets - are prebuilt text that can be copied into a report area by selecting from a dropdown
  2. Sections - are a section of the report that requires questions to be answered, findings and recommendations
  3. Document Fragments - are sections of the report that do not require questions to be answered - example "Terms and Conditions"
  4. Headings / Parents - is where you can setup the headings that sections will assemble under
  5. Templates - are where the report structure is defined - the headings involved, the sequence of the report, the brand of the report
  6. Templated Answers (repeat answers) - a special type of Section that creates re-usable answers (eg high / medium / low)
  7. Sub Section - used as a repeating set of questions on demand and pulled in by a section

Headings

Check all the headings you require in the report have been defined

Note

This is the default sequence that can be over-riden in a template


Sections

Define the sections to be added - or check if they already exist - link to headings

Note

Note the Template text flows here - "Perimeter gutters are constructed of copper material/s and are in Good condition....etc" will be the result. ie a paragraph will result from the answers to a number of questions.

Text is text of the question

Template text - is the text that will be used with the answers once entered.

Repeating Sections Defined

Repeating Sections can be repeated in a report if required - for example "Bedrooms" where the set of questions repeats each time a bedroom is found

Repeat Answers (Special type of Template)

Repeating answers provides simple entry of multiple answer sets

Note

Each report can only have one instance of any Repeating key. ie - 2 different bedroom sections for different purposes would not normally mix on a report.

The report can have multiple repeating keys - just no duplicates. ie - may have repeating key for bedroom and repeating key for kitchen, stairs etc

If a repeating section is not found (ie no stairs in this inspection) - make the section NA when doing the report.

Sub Sections Defined

A sub section is a section that is used by a section and can be requested on demand.  An example is walls in a room.  A room section can include a wall sub-section so during the inspection the inspector can capture details for none, 1, 2, or any number of walls.

The "Wall Defects" subsection above is a repeating subsection. So it can be made to repeat when doing the report. Hence if a room has 3 walls repeat it 3 times, if a room had 6 walls repeat it 6 times.

Result Template for a section - Example Results

Result templates can over-ride the standard layout of the PDF result.

...

If you do not enter a result template - the question Template Text is used as the default for the PDF

If you do have a result template then this is used

...

Two types of behaviour

  1. Use the question / or if exists the template text as response with all questions in sequence
  2. manually entered paragraph from the answers as you like.  Type in the LHS - check results in RHS

If you click "Reset Template" it will copy from the questions template text.  (warning) if you save this it will over-ride any previous template text.

...

These are standard sections with no questions - define as many as required by your documents.

Tags enable fixed vs variable price variations - require us to setup as you need them.

Define the Report Template

 A report template is constructed from available questions and document fragments. Image Removed

Special type is used to determine if the recommendations should appear in the title page or in a summary page.

Note

When a section is marked as "Optional" the template will allow the inspector to mark the entire section as "NA". This may be required if a repeating key section (example stairs) is not found in the property.
