Auto-import checklist or test items



This articles describes how you can specify an "Asset- or Equiptment"-type and attach multiple checklists to it.

When adding new items marked with the "Asset- or Equiptment"-type, the checklists will automatically be imported.





The two import-types



There are two ways to attach checklists:

Sub-checklists: This way the attached checklists will be added as sub-checklists and change the item to a "folder".
Checklist items: This way the checklists items will added.


Sub-checklist



When you create a new checklist, you can choose to auto add multiple sub-checklist to it.

E.g. you can create an asset called 'Ventilation' and attach multiple sub-checklists to it, for example Mechanical complete, Functional check and System integration test. This will automatically add 3 sub-checklists to this asset.

It will then get this structure:

Ventilation
Mechanical complete
Functional check
System integration test

Sub-checklist example


Checklist items



Define an asset/equiptment type, and then attach one or more checklists to it.

When you create a new asset/equiptment of that type, the items from those checklists will be automatically imported.

E.g. you can create an asset called 'Ventilation', and then attach the checklist 'Ventilation - General inspection', which will be auto-import when adding new 'Ventilation'-assets.
