Disable or enable inspection scoring
Learn how to disable or enable inspection scoring via the web app.
Why disable or enable inspection scoring?
We understand the scoring feature may not be relevant to some of the templates in your organization. Depending on the context of an inspection, you can easily disable or enable scoring from templates with a click of a button instead of manually updating the score value of individual questions and responses.
Disabling scoring for a template doesn't immediately hide the score from its inspection reports. You can hide the score by creating report layouts.
