This article provides an overview of vehicle and asset inspections in Reveal, and how to set up inspection forms and drivers so that your drivers can access the inspections forms in the Reveal Driver Plus mobile app.
Note
Inspections that your drivers have completed using the Logbook app are not listed on the Inspection history page. Instead, they can be found under Reports > Compliance > Vehicle inspection.
To get started with inspections in Reveal:
- Understand the inspection process.
- Publish an existing or new inspection form.
- Set up your drivers to access the Reveal Driver Plus app.
- Inform your drivers of their password.
- Get your drivers to install the Reveal Driver Plus app. It's available in the Google Play Store for Android devices and in the iOS App Store for Apple devices.
- Inform your drivers of their login details so that they can log in.
- Set up a fleet inspection alert so that you get informed about any failed inspection reports.
- Set up Reveal Driver Plus for all inspections to centralize data. To learn more, go to set up Reveal Driver Plus for inspections. This step is optional for managers.
The inspection process involves both Reveal and the Reveal Driver Plus mobile app:
- Administrator Setup: As an administrator, ensure your drivers are set up properly in Reveal, and then create and publish inspection forms.
- Driver Inspection: Drivers with the appropriate permissions can access inspection forms from the Reveal Driver Plus mobile app and perform inspections on vehicles and assets. Initial inspections are submitted with a Pass (if there are no defects or only minor defects) or with a Fail (if there are major defects). Major defects are those that make the vehicle or asset unsafe to operate.
- Accessing Reports: All submitted inspections are accessible on the Inspection history page in Reveal.
- Resolving Defects: If defects are found, they need to be fixed and then resolved in the inspection on the Inspection history page.
- Driver Reinspection: Drivers reinspect the vehicles that have defects resolved and mark them as Certified (if all defects or all major defects are fixed) or Failed (if one or more of the major defects still fail).
Publish an inspection form
Your drivers can perform an inspection only if you have published at least one inspection form. You can create a new inspection form and publish it, or publish an existing inspection form.
Create forms with AI
To create inspection forms using our AI inspection assistant:
- For new accounts: If you have no published forms or submitted inspections, the AI prompt appears on Inspection history.
- For active accounts: If you already have forms or an inspection history, go to Inspection forms to use the tool.
Set up your drivers to access the Reveal Driver Plus app
Your drivers can access the Reveal Driver Plus app only if they have been set up correctly in Reveal. To set up your drivers, you can create new drivers, edit existing drivers, or edit existing users.
Independent of the method of setting up your driver, make sure that you add the following details:
- Add a First Name, Last Name, and Email address. If you are editing a user, select the checkbox next to Yes, this user is a driver.
- Under Mobile Access, select the checkbox next to Enable access.
- Under Driver Log Password, enter a password.
- Under Group Access
- Click Groups
- Select the check boxes next to all the vehicle groups and subgroups that the driver’s vehicles belong to.
- Selecting Entire Fleet does not automatically assign drivers to all groups.
Note
Group changes can take up to 15 minutes to reflect in the Reveal Driver Plus mobile app.
