Inspector Independence

I’m trying to do inspections and limit the people who can create them to, you know, inspectors. But it seems anybody can edit all the different inspection options. Is there something simple and stupid I’m missing.

Joseph,

We’ve been testing this out on our end and, while it is possible to allow or block access to the inspections page altogether, it’s not clear whether there’s a way to only block a user from entering in new inspection data and submitting it.

So, in short, you aren’t missing something easy! This might just need to be a conversation instead of a system setting.

If we do happen to find a way to do this, we will let you know.

Joseph,

It turns out there is a way to block a user from creating an inspection in which a part fails. However, I couldn’t find a way to block a user from creating an inspection where all parts pass.

Could be better than nothing. Let me know if you want instructions on that.

The workaround we are using is using only Labor Plans for inspections (which have names next to people) so QA can verify an inspector did the inspection steps before the final approval.

It would be nice to have a separate inspector area able to be written to only by inspectors.

Joseph,

I hear you. That makes sense to me. I’m about pass that on to the engineers as a suggestion for future improvements.

If it’s more urgent than that, and you’d like to contract some development work, I can also check on that option.

Thanks,
