Property Inspection Types

Property Inspection Types define the different categories of inspections that can be recorded against properties, for example condition surveys, void inspections and pre-let inspections.

To access this setting, select Admin → Settings from the main menu, then click Property Inspection Types within the Property Settings section.

Managing Property Inspection Types

You may:

• Add new Property Inspection Types.
• Rename existing Property Inspection Types.
• Delete Property Inspection Types that are no longer required.

The standard Local Authority inspection type cannot be renamed or deleted.

Adding a Property Inspection Type

1. Click Add.
2. Enter a unique name in the Inspection Type field.
3. Click Add Inspection Type.

The name is required and may contain up to 64 characters.

Editing a Property Inspection Type

Click the Edit icon beside the relevant Inspection Type, update its name and click Update.

Renaming a type updates the name displayed throughout Affinity, including existing inspection records, schedules and reports.

Deleting a Property Inspection Type

Click the Delete icon beside the relevant Inspection Type and confirm the deletion.

Deleting a type removes it from the options available for new inspections and deactivates its associated inspection schedules. Previously recorded property inspections are retained.

Before deleting a type, confirm that it is no longer required for future inspections or reporting.
