Canned comments are useful for inspectors, and for reporting. Inspectors can choose a comment from a list, rather than typing the comment manually. This makes your reporting more concise, as the format will be the same across the board.

To add canned comments, start by logging into the web app:

  1. Click Forms.
  2. Click Canned Comments.
  3. Click the green plus sign.
  4. Enter the Comment List Name; this act as a category, such as "Fire Extinguisher Blocked".
  5. Click Save.
