Set up an inspector profile

You set up a user account and a user profile for an inspector in Civic Platform. This profile identifies the inspector, and provides details such as daily inspection maximums or units, districts, disciplines, and scheduling availability. You can then use this information to assign and schedule the appropriate inspector when automatically scheduling inspections. This profile also identifies the default start location, the default end location, and the default routing type for an optimized inspection route. You can create a batch job to generate the sequence of inspection route sheet items for each inspector based on this information.

Configure your agency’s inspector profiles so inspectors get assignments to inspections that correspond to inspector units, districts, disciplines, and inspection calendars.

Daily inspector units reflect the number of inspections an inspector can conduct each day. For example, if an inspector has six hours available for inspections each day and each unit equals 30 minutes, then the inspector can accommodate twelve units per day.

To automatically schedule inspections, the feature must be active for each type of inspection. For information on how to turn this feature on, see Add, edit, and delete inspection types.
