Entering the Inspection

Clock In to start time on the inspection

If time tracking is turned on, you'll also need to start/end time on each item as you start/finish it.
Multiple mechanics can be clocked into different sections of the same inspection simultaneously.
Note: Clocking on/off the inspection does not apply to Paperless Shop users.

  1. Pull up the inspection in any of the available screens as detailed in the above section (WW, WPL, or WNV).
  2. Click the "Clock In" button on the toolbar.
  3. Enter your mechanic ID number to begin tracking your time on the inspection.

Mark Item as Ok/Fail and to complete the item

  • An item can only be marked as failed if a defect was checked.
  • If you check an item as "fail", the defect list will be presented. A list is presented showing the items that still need to be done before the item can be completed.

Marking Defective Items

The brake inspection entry screen is displayed. Input the date and vehicle odometer reading at the time of the inspection. In the remaining fields, enter the percentage of pad life remaining for each axle's left and right side. You can enter readings for up to five axles per vehicle. Enter the percentage of pad life remaining for the left and right side, one axle at a time, Axle 1-L, Axle 1-R, Axle 2-L, Axle 2-R, Axle 3-L, etc.
