Using Clarinspect to Monitor a Project

Clarinspect has a great feature where a person from outside a company can have free read-only access to monitor and view the progress of a project in Clarinspect.


You will receive an invite to use Clarinspect, you need to "Accept the invitation” and set your password.


Your email address and the password you set will be your log in for the web console (hub.clarinspect.com).


Top Tip: Bookmark hub.clarinspect.com on your browser so it is easy for you to check in on the project. 


When you log in you will see a screen like below. You will see the workpackages you have been assigned to. If you see none, then contact the company that invited you and get yourself added to one.


All Inspection View

If you click on the workpackage title you will see something like this ...



This is a list view of all of the inspection ( or penetration) on the site. Green tick= Finished

Green circle arrows = Active ( they are still working on it)

Grey Circle = Draft ( this is set-up but no work in the field yet)


It is best to check the Finished and Active items.


As the field staff sync their data to the cloud you will be able to see all the details and photos at your desk.


You can tap on the blue text to take you into that inspection record.



You can also see Work Package Summary Reports. These are intended to produce a report for a collection of inspections in a Work Package, and can be selected by using filters. To view the reports available, click the Summary Reports tab, and then click on the Reports Available button. Click here for more information on Work Package Summary Reports. 

The views of the various screens will look slightly different when accessed from a device:


Using the Drawings Tab

Site Plans / Drawings used in a Work Package can be viewed through the Drawings tab


These are the sections to the Drawings Tab:

  1. The Current Drawing. Here you can choose which drawing to view
  2. Choose action: download drawing/ visible area, copy drawing/visible area to clipboard, download as PDF)
  3. + -: Zoom in/out - You can zoom up to 150% of the original drawing size
  4. Filters: Filter what pins are visible by inspection type, state, who it is assigned to, and date
Find Text Balloon: Find Text Balloon on drawing by looking through the list or searching the ID. This is especially useful if you have lots of pins!

Filters

This section is used to choose what is shown on the selected drawing.


Cancelled Inspections are never shown. Archived and finished are included.

Tick the date box, and set the date to use in the filter, you do not need to set both dates. If you set only the ‘from date’ then you get all work completed since that date.

Note: Filters are applied immediately.

Find Text Balloons

This section enables the user to locate a specific text balloon (inspection / feature). 

The text balloons available to search through are filtered by the choices under Filters. 

You can further filter the list by searching on the balloon text.

Click the entry in the ‘Find Text Balloons’ list to bring that text balloon into view. The text balloon and the pointer will also be highlighted for you.

By default if you click on an entry in the list, the drawing will pan to bring the pointer tip into view (i.e the thing being pointed at).

Similarly if you click on a text balloon or point on the drawing, this will highlight the entry in the Find text Balloons list.

You can click on the blue icon to open a new tab to look at the record for a specific item. 

If the text balloon was linked to a subform (e.g. a scoped item on a survey, or a defect on an Inspection) then the survey will open and the inspection will scroll to the specific feature.
