Intervals

When you create or edit checks in the checklists, you can choose how often these checks should be performed.

Define Intervals

You can decide how often a check should be performed by setting intervals of time that indicate the recurrence of the check. 

When creating a new checklist you need to do this:

  1. Click “Add Check” which will appear when you first create a checklist. 
  2. Click the “Create New Checklist” button.
  3. In the “Type” drop-down field, select the new interval you would like to apply.
  4. When you are done, click “Apply”.

You are now able to add control points to your check.

Note: The “Time Estimate” field is optional.

You can also change how often a check should be performed on a check that already exists. To do this: 

  1. Click “Checklists” in the left-side panel.
  2. Click the checklist that you want to change the interval for. 
  3. Click the cogwheel icon next to the interval. 
  4. In the “Type” drop-down field, select the new interval you would like to apply.
  5. When you are done, click “Apply”.

The change should be reflected instantly.

There are 9 different intervals to choose from. Open the boxes below to learn what each interval option means.

Note: You can click any of the images to magnify them.

Daily Check

This means the check should be performed daily.

Note: It will only become active once you’ve performed the check. 

Weekly Check

This means the check should be performed weekly.

Note: It will only become active once you’ve performed the check. 

Monthly Check

This means the check should be performed monthly.

Note: It will only become active once you’ve performed the check. 

Custom Interval

You can decide how often the check should be performed (e.g. every other day, every two weeks, every four months, etc.).

Note: It will only become active once you’ve performed the check. 

Fixed Interval

You can select specific days for the check to be performed. This can be a certain day of the week, month, or year. This control type is only active during the range you have selected, and will otherwise be inactive and not start.

Calendar Interval

You can choose a period of time and select dates from a calendar for when the check should be performed.

No Interval

Select this if you do not know how often the check should be performed.

Odometer

This means the check must be performed at specific odometer reading intervals (e.g. at every 500 hours).

Note: It will only become active once you’ve performed the check. 

Connected Interval

You can connect a check to another check so that when the first one is performed the connected check becomes active and available to perform. 

Great! Now you know what the different intervals are and how to apply them to checks.
