After entering in customer and report info, selecting a template will officially start a report. The template is the structured list of component and inspection items that comprise the entire home inspection. The contents of the items; such as inspection checks, comments, and photos will be organized into the final report for the customer. This article will describe how to select a template.
Selecting a Template in the Desktop Software

- Click Open Template to open the selected template.
- The template will open. New items in the Sections Panel will now be available.
Once a template is selected, it cannot be undone as a report is permanently linked to a template. If you find that you have selected the wrong template for the inspection, you must either click New and start the report new, or add template items to the current template to have the inspection items needed.
