Structure
The bulk of the Template is made up of Sections and Items.
Items are contained inside a Section.
Items can have Evidence (must be filled out), Help and Comments (optionally added)
This can be thought of as a tree as follows:
- TEMPLATE
- CHECKLIST
- CHECKLIST_NAME
- SECTION1
- ITEM1
- ITEM2
- SECTION2
- ITEM3
- EVIDENCE1
- EVIDENCE2
- ITEM4
- COMMENT
Sections
Sections group common items together.
Think of a Section as a group of work that pauses or a break could be taken in between.
Sections can be reordered and deleted.
Reorder a Section by using the Up and down arrows next to the name.
Delete a Section by clicking the Trash Can icon at the end of the row
Deleting a Section will delete all associated Items inside of it.
Items
Items are the units of work to be acknowledged and/or actioned.
An Item in a Checklist starts as NOT DONE and can be cycled to
- TICK
- CROSS
- NOT DONE
You should consider carefully what Items you create.
Items can be added, deleted and re arranged within a Section - but cannot be moved to a different section.
To delete an Item use the Trash Can icon at the end of the row
