Unfinished tools

Once a tool has been started as a logged in user, it can be saved as unfinished and can be continued after a break. Tool filling can be interrupted by clicking on Continue later in the top right corner of the filling view.

The unfinished tool will be saved in the tools page in the unfinished list. Each user will see their own unfinished tools in the list. At the top of the list is the tool that has had the latest edits made to it. By clicking on a tool, it will open back to the filling step The tool to be filled has saved all the data that has already been filled in on previous/previous sessions. The tool can be saved as an unlimited number of unfinished items before final completion.

Updatable tools

When you start a new updatable checklist and save it as ready, it will be saved in the list on the Tools page of the Updatables list. Clicking on the Update heading will bring up a list of tools that can be updated after the first completion.

  2. The tool will open in a pop-up window containing the answers from the previous version.
  3. Edit the answers and finally click finish.

Archive

When you no longer want to update a checklist, it can be archived in the list under the Archive heading on the Tools page. In this list, all users in the organization will see the checklists to be updated that have been completed for the levels to which they have tools rights. Archiving the updatable checklists makes it easier to manage them.
