InspectAssets User Manual
How to manage sites, assets, inspections, compliance, and reporting in InspectAssets — organized by workflow rather than by menu.
This manual knows who you are
You're reading it signed in with your InspectAssets account, so it can tell you which features your role actually includes. Pages you can't access are marked 🔒 in the sidebar, and each page opens with a note about whether the feature is available to you. Use the toggle at the top of the sidebar to hide everything you can't reach.
What InspectAssets does
InspectAssets tracks the physical world your organization is responsible for. You maintain a portfolio of sites, register the assets at each one, run inspections against those assets on a schedule, and the results feed risk, compliance, and reporting.
The core loop is short: an inspection is scheduled → an inspector conducts it (often on a phone, often offline) → it's submitted and approved → failures become risks and corrective actions → those roll up into compliance coverage and reports.

Who this manual is for
InspectAssets serves several distinct roles, and most pages are relevant to only some of them:
| Role | Typically does | Most relevant sections |
|---|---|---|
| Inspector | Conducts inspections in the field, scans assets, works offline. | Inspections, Asset Management |
| Manager / Supervisor | Assigns work, approves inspections, reports on the team. | Inspections, Approvals, Reports |
| Tenant admin | Runs the organization: users, roles, sites, settings, billing. | Administration, Compliance, Audit Logs |
| Platform admin | InspectAssets staff managing many customer organizations. | Platform Admin Guide |
A note on permissions
Access is controlled by permissions bundled into roles, not by role name alone. A page is available to you if your role carries any one of the permissions it requires — the same rule the application itself applies. If something described here isn't in your app, it's almost always one of two things: your role lacks the permission, or your organization's plan doesn't include the feature. Both are covered in FAQ & Troubleshooting.
