The Sanitation Workflow

The sanitation workflow works similarly to the standard maintenance workflow and works to ensure that all sanitation jobs are completed and verified up to your organization's standards.

This article describes how the Sanitation workflow works.

Step 0: Submitting Sanitation Requests (Optional)

Sanitation requests can be submitted by standard users and are commonly made by maintenance personnel. The requests include the same information as jobs, such as tasks, photos, assets, and more, but they are not truly "jobs" and therefore cannot be scheduled or assigned until approved by a manager. 

See Adding a Sanitation Request for more help.

Step 1: Creating Sanitation Jobs

Sanitation jobs can come from approved sanitation requests or can be directly created by managers or administrators. They also include information on required tasks, labor, tools, and more for the job and can be scheduled directly from the approval workbench.

See Approving/Denying Sanitation Requests or Creating a Sanitation Job for more help.

Step 2: Scheduling Sanitation Jobs

The easiest way to schedule sanitation jobs is when you approve them in the approval workbench. See Approving/Denying Sanitation Requests for more help.

Step 3: Completing Sanitation Jobs

Sanitation jobs are then marked as completed by the maintenance personnel as a way to check off tasks and signal to supervisors that the job is ready to be verified.

Step 4: Verifying Sanitation Jobs

This step is crucial for safety reasons. Supervisors should verify whether the sanitation job has performed up to the organization's safety standards. If it is, they can pass the job. If it is not, they can fail the job, and the job will return to step 0 as a sanitation request.
