Pre-sheet inspection / framing readiness Workflow

What happens if the framing fails the pre-sheet inspection?

The record status is set to Rectification and a task is assigned to the framer to fix the failed checks within 2 days, with fields for rectification details and photos. Once submitted, those details are saved to the record and an inspector task is created to re-inspect within 1 day.

What happens if the re-inspection still finds the framing not ready?

The workflow routes back to the framer task, restarting the rectification cycle rather than moving the job forward. This loop between framer and inspector continues until a re-inspection confirms the framing is ready to sheet, and each cycle is recorded on the record's timeline.

Can this handle multiple rounds of rectification on the same job?

Yes, the routing step after re-inspection is designed to send the record back to the framer task as many times as needed. Each rectification and re-inspection attempt is saved to the record, so the full history of attempts is visible in the timeline.

Who is involved in this workflow, and what do they each do?

The inspector submits the initial pre-sheet inspection via the request form and later completes any re-inspection task. The framer is assigned a task to fix failed checks and record rectification details and photos. The builder/client receives email notifications when the framing passes, either on the first inspection or after rectification, and does not need an account to receive these.

What if the framing passes on the first inspection with no rectification needed?

The routing step on Overall Result sends the record straight to Ready to Sheet status and triggers an email to the builder/client confirming the pass. The framer and rectification tasks are skipped entirely in this path.

Can the task deadlines for the framer and inspector be changed?

Yes, the 2-day framer task and 1-day inspector task can be adjusted by describing the change in plain English or editing the steps directly in the workflow editor. Earlier versions of the workflow are kept, so changes can be reviewed or reverted if needed.

What if we need to add extra fields to the inspection form, like a fire-rating checklist item?

The request form can be updated to capture additional fields, and these will save to the inspection record like the existing fields. Since the workflow waits on the framer and inspector tasks, any fields added to those tasks are also saved to the record once submitted.

How are photos and measurements from the inspection tracked?

Photos and out-of-plane measurements submitted on the original request form are saved to the inspection record at creation. Rectification photos from the framer task and any re-inspection notes are saved to the record as separate steps, keeping a visual and written history alongside the status timeline.

Does the builder/client need to log into anything to get updates?

No, the builder/client receives email notifications directly — either confirming a pass on first inspection or confirming the framing was rectified and passed. They take part through emailed forms and notifications without needing an account.

What does the inspection record show once the process is complete?

The record carries a reference number, a status that reflects the final outcome such as Ready to Sheet, and a timeline showing every step from initial submission through any rectification and re-inspection cycles. Each business should confirm this record meets its own documentation obligations for framing sign-off.
