Work Categories are used to determine the default Checklist/Procedure that is displayed to a technician when performing an Inspection. If you have any questions, please contact support@builtspace.com.


There are two types of Work Categories: planned and reactive. Setting a Work Category type to reactive means it will show up for any unscheduled jobs (i.e. service calls). Setting the Work Category type to planned means that it will show up for any scheduled Jobs (PMs). 


Work Categories provide users with an easy way of defining which Checklists are selected by default for technicians using the BuiltSpace Inspections App.
