Types of Checks

How you complete a check will depend on which type it is. For example, you may be required to select an option, type a response, etc. See below for more details.

When you have completed the check, tap Confirm.

If you are unable to complete the check, tap Cancel to return to the checklist.

Temperature Check

These checks require you to enter a temperature reading using a probe.

If the check:

  • displays a probe icon, use a Checkit probe. See Probes for instructions.

  • does not display a probe icon, use your own probes and manually type the reading into the device (see image 6)

Delayed Checks

This feature is currently only available on the CWM Android app

Your response to a list of options check may create a delayed check (a check to be completed in the near future).

For example, if you select an option indicating that you have put a food item on display, this action may create a delayed check that requires you to confirm after a specified period of time if the item has been sold and if not to waste the item.

If so, a window will appear on screen stating ‘Delayed Check Created’ and an 8 character code will be displayed. Write the code on a label and stick it on the item to help you identify it later. Alternatively, if your device is connected to a printer, tap Print to create a sticker.

You can also add some notes in the Extra information field on the app to help you identify the item. You will then see a banner at the bottom of the scheduled work screen displaying the number of pending delayed checks and when the next one is due. See image 14.

When the delayed check is ready for completion, it will appear under the Due heading of the scheduled work screen and will display the same code as before. Tap the check to complete it. See image 15.

Alternatively, if the items is sold before the delayed check is due, you can cancel the upcoming check. To do so, tap on your list of delayed checks at the bottom of the scheduled work screen, tap the x icon on the check that you want to cancel, and enter a reason for the cancellation. See image 16.

Please contact us if you would like to order a printer for delayed check labels.

See Connect Your Device to a Printer for instructions on how to set up the printer.
