When to use it
When to use it, and when not to
This record is one step in a larger programme. Using it for work that belongs to a neighbouring template produces records that are hard to report on later.
Use it for
- The event or activity this record covers has occurred, or is about to
- The workspace is being set up, or the register needs an entry added or retired
- You are running the Worker Competency and Credentials programme and this is one of its steps
- A linked record needs this one to exist: links driver records, fitness for duty
Not for
- Carrier Safety Rating Review, which reviews your carrier safety scores and roadside violation trends.
- Fleet Compliance Audit, which audits your whole road transport operation against regulatory requirements, covering driver files, hours, maintenance and records.
- Vehicle Roadworthiness Declaration, which records the operator's declaration that a vehicle is roadworthy before it leaves site.
- Anything outside KnowFleet, which belongs in the workspace that owns that process
