Real-Time Training: Want to resolve a survey deficiency now instead of reading about how to do it? Launch our live step-by-step walk through to get started.
Overview
If an inspector conducts a survey and identifies a deficiency, you will need to edit the survey to resolve that deficiency. For example, let's say an inspector identifies a sprinkler system on a new property that requires a new backflow prevention assembly. This deficiency would be considered resolved once a new assembly has been installed. You can resolve a deficiency starting from the Dashboard or from the related Customer page.
