In the Inspections Scheduler article we outline the basics of creating a property schedule in Property Inspect. Find information about, by clicking here.

In this article we will review the newly deployed ability to trigger an inspection using an inspection schedule, based on events or specified conditions.

Create an Inspection Schedule by trigger, by navigating to Properties > Schedules > Create New Schedule.

Choose the Trigger option from the Frequency list to get started.
​

Here you will be presented with a list of triggers or events to choose from:

Set the Frequency

Repeat every [insert number] and choose from the dropdown

Occurence

Occurrence allows you to limit the number of cycles.

Below are a list of use cases and example for using the inspection schedule by trigger.

Trigger an interim inspection to be scheduled 6 months after the Move-In inspection has been closed or completed.

Schedule a follow-up inspection when the inspection status value (inspection custom field) is created or updated, for reinspection 10 days later.

Trigger a Move-In inspection when the Vacant tag is deleted or removed from a property.

Further customise the scheduling requirements by adding conditions or rules to the scheduling criteria.

Conditional options include:

When specifying the conditions for tags, select whether the tag is applied on a property or an inspection and specify the tag.

When specifying the conditions for custom field, select the custom field type (property, inspection, client) along with the custom field and the value that it should be equal or not equal to.

Example: When the inspection custom field - inspection_status is fail, apply the schedule as previously defined or created.

Once the Schedule has been created, continue with the steps outlined in the Inspection Schedule article, to Apply the Schedule to a Property.
