Report Designer: Configuring Your Inspection Reports

Prev Next

The Report Designer allows users to generate professional PDF reports for each inspection conducted using a template. This feature is available to template owners and users with the Template Editor role.

Whether you need a quick summary or a detailed, audit-ready report, Report Designer puts you in control of how inspection results are documented and shared.


Key Capabilities

On the Report Designer tab, users can:

  • Toggle content sections to include or exclude specific data

  • Preview the report in real-time to see what the final PDF will look like

  • Customize multiple reports for different stakeholders or use cases

This ensures your team gets exactly the level of detail they need — from high-level scores for executives to deep-dive responses for compliance officers.


What You Can Include

The layout is broken into several optional sections that can be toggled on or off:

Overview

Includes key metadata such as:

  • Inspection number

  • Template name

  • Establishment and entity

  • Closed by and closure date

Scope

Optional section to describe the scope of the inspection.

Summary

  • Overall results (score %, score #, number of actions and findings)

  • Section scores with breakdowns per section

  • Results by response for each question type

Issues

  • Findings identified during the inspection

  • Corrective or preventive actions assigned

Questions

  • Lists all sections, questions, and individual responses

Media

  • Includes images and notes attached to individual questions


When are PDF Reports generated?

PDF reports are automatically generated when an inspection task is closed. You can easily access these reports from the attachments panel located on the right side of the inspection task page. This ensures a consistent and auditable record for every completed inspection.
