Inspection booking, versioned checklists, rule-based results, reports with corrections
Vehicle Inspection and Appraisal is an app for the workstation of an inspection and appraisal point. It handles bookings on inspection lanes, versioned checklists with measurements, and builds the result and report from the filled-in data according to the template's rules.
An inspection request: vehicle, customer, inspector and lane, a document check at intake and a checklist with “Normal / Deviation” marks and a brake force measurement with equipment.
Overview
Vehicle Inspection and Appraisal: what it does and how it works
The workstation of an inspection and appraisal point. Booking an inspection: the customer from the shared contact book, the vehicle from the unified Vehicles service, a document check at intake, the inspector, the lane or workstation, start and end time — the server won't book a lane or inspector twice and won't book a lane with faulty equipment or expired calibration. The company sets up checklists for vehicle categories: items with criteria, measurements with units and limits, options with the normal one marked, deviation severity. Editing a template creates a new version, and completed requests stay on theirs.
Work types — technical inspection, condition assessment, damage recording, pre-sale diagnostics, damage assessment, post-accident check, independent appraisal; the list can be extended. The inspector marks items, enters measurements with equipment, findings with photos and comments. The result — passed, failed or re-inspection — is calculated from the filled-in data according to the template's rules, never at random. The report is built from the data: template version, measurements, findings, a photo appendix, internal signatures, manager review; a correction is a new version with a reason, and earlier ones are kept.
Archive, printing and JSON export, a calendar, a queue, reports on results, timing, frequent deviations and line load. A built-in template follows the diagnostic card form of the Republic of Kazakhstan (Order No. 329 of 26.03.2015, Annex 1 to the Rules; 44 form items and the preparatory stage — verbatim, with the source and revision date for each item). It is read-only: the company makes a copy and works with it, and checks that the act is still current on its own. The report is printed in the card format. The act sets no numeric limits, so the system has none either.
