STOP
This option only applies to "Inspection_Checkbox" type fields in the Inspection forms table, and can be used to ensure the Texada Web Mechanic returns the appropriate completed value on critical inspection actions, before the asset is ready to rent again.

Critical inspection prompts are identified on the Texada Web device or tablet, and control whether the Green Tag status can be selected on the Work Order and whether the Product Status Code can be changed to an "Allow Rent" status.

Select which one of these actions means Stop on this Inspection Form Detail:

  • Check to mean Stop for this inspection detail.
    If the checkbox for this inspection is checked on the tablet then it is Red Tagged and the Product Status cannot be changed to an "Allow Rent" status.
    The checkbox would need to be unchecked before the Green Tag status can be selected.
  • Uncheck to mean Stop for this inspection detail.
    If the checkbox for this inspection is NOT checked on the tablet then it is Red Tagged and the Product Status cannot be changed to an "Allow Rent" status.
    The checkbox would need to be checked before the Green Tag status can be selected.

  • Never means this inspection checkbox does not restrict the selection of a Green Tag status


YY
This option only applies to the following two types of inspection questions:
  • "Inspection_Checkbox" type records and when YY is checked it requires that the Inspection response must be affirmative or N/A before the Inspection can be closed as completed.
    This field is not enabled if there is a value in the "STOP" option of the "Inspection_Checkbox" record.
  • "Inspection_Multiple_Choice" type records and when YY is checked then one of the pre-defined responses for this inspection record becomes mandatory.
    When the YY is not checked for a "Inspection_Multiple_Choice" type record then one of the pre-defined responses or a blank are acceptable responses.

OPT
This column only applies to the "Inspection_Multiple_Choice" records and can be used to define the acceptable responses in the Multiple Choice Options window, for the question or prompt setup in the 'User Prompt' field for this record.
