Performing a check

The check runner

When you start a check you land in the runner at /checks/{id} (custom checks run at /custom/check/{id}). The runner walks you through the template section by section. For each item you mark the result — pass or fail, pick a choice, type a number, or add notes — depending on the item's type.

Flagging a problem

When an item is not right, flag it. Flagging does two things: it records the problem on the check, and it raises an alert so the people responsible for repairs and restocking know immediately. This is the heart of Truck Check — a failed item does not just sit in a binder, it becomes an actionable alert.

Autosave

The runner autosaves your progress as you work. If your phone locks, the tablet sleeps, or you get pulled onto a call mid-check, your answers are not lost — come back and pick up where you left off.

Finalizing

1. Work through every section.
2. Finalize the check to lock it in as the permanent dated record.
3. You can print the completion report for a paper file if your department keeps one.
4. If a check was started in error, you can cancel it instead of finalizing.
