Written by Océane Saez

Why add a voluntary control ?

You can add a voluntary inspection when you want to carry out an inspection that is not defined by regulations. It can be linked to a group requirement, a maintenance plan, or an internal inspection.

To add a voluntary inspection to an element, simply:

  1. Click on “Elements”

  2. Filter the element

  3. Click on the element

  4. Click on “Inspections”

  5. Click on “Add”

  6. Choose the voluntary control — two options:

    • New voluntary control :

      1. Enter the name

      2. Specify the Category (optional)

      3. Check (or not) “Results in non-compliance” / “Generates an inspection report”

      4. Enter the Frequency in months

      5. Select the Regulation
