Use Sample Ticket Report Templates (Advanced)

Overview

Use sample templates for ticket reports to quickly set up reports for:

• Fire safety reports
• Home inspection checklists
• Handover checklists
• Site diaries

If these sample reports meet your requirements, you can use them without much effort. Or they can be used as examples to see and experiment with the possibilities of advanced ticket report templates.

In order to collect ticket data for a sample report template you can chose to automatically create the corresponding ticket form. Or you can map existing ticket form fields to the fields of a sample report template.

It is also possible to edit a sample template using the powerful template builder. Once you are familiar with the template builder, it might be easier to start a new template from scratch to suit your exact requirements. Read more in Create Advanced Ticket Report Templates.
