Equipment Inspection Category Screen

The Equipment Inspection Category screen is displayed from the Equipment Inspection Category search list screen when you select the New option or click on an existing inspection category. From this screen, you can manage or create a new equipment inspection category. 

Screen  Element	Description
Active	Enables you to switch the equipment inspection category to either active or inactive. Inactive equipment inspection categories can not be included in new inspection types.
Critical	When the Critical option is used for an inspection category,  an equipment item will be marked as Out of Service if a failing inspection score is received. Selecting Critical will automatically mark the inspection category as Score Required. Once this option is selected, the Score Required option will be grayed out.  There is no indicator to differentiate an inspection category with a Score Required or Critical setting. However, because the Critical option automatically requires a score, a red asterisk will appear, indicating that a score is also required.
Delete Equipment Inspection Icon	Click on the three dots menu to reveal the option to delete an inspection category. An inspection category can not be deleted if it is in use.
Description	Utilize this field to provide additional details and instructions to guide equipment inspectors.  You can specify what components to inspect, inspection specifications, etc...
Display Order	Required. Use the display order to prioritize the order in which categories should be listed in Inspection Types relative to each other.
Inspection Category Name	Required. Create or modify an inspection category name. In most cases, it is best if the name reflects a component item (i.e. brakes, lights, tires, etc...) on the equipment to be inspected.
Inspection Types	You can choose which Inspection Types will include and display the inspection category.
Remove Inspection Type Icon	Click the x within the inspection type to remove it from the inspection category selection.
Save Icon	Click the Save icon to save updates you make to an inspection category. After clicking this option, You will return to the search list screen.
Score Required	When the Score Required feature on the Inspection Category detail screen is used, a score must be provided for that category when conducting an equipment inspection.  Score Required and Critical fields can search, filter, group, sort, and display information on the Inspection Categories advanced search screen. You can identify equipment inspection categories with the Score Required option enabled in Crew Mobile by observing the red asterisk next to the name of the Inspection Category OR  the Score Required note in red lettering listed to the right of the Inspection Category name. You will receive a warning if you have not completed an inspection category that requires a score.
Screen Title	The screen title will display as New when you first create a category and update and remain as Equipment Inspection Category for an existing equipment inspection category.
Service Tag	Enables you to select the service needed when this inspection category fails. Inspection categories must have a service type of Request Service.
