Manage Who Can See or Edit Audit Results

Read Before - Manage Who Can Conduct Audits → Where to Find Access Controls 1. Go to Checklists from the left-hand menu 2. Find the checklist you want to configure and click on its ellipsis 3. Select Settings 4. Go to Access tab 5. Then go to View / Edit Result tab Assign Result Access by User Group or Individual Users You can grant result access to: - Individual Users - User Groups Each entry has a dual-permission selector: - View Only – User can view audit results but cannot make changes - Full Access – User can view and edit results Additionally, you can toggle location restrictions: - You can enable the location restriction toggle to ensure that selected users or groups can only access results for audits conducted at locations already assigned to them. Special Case: In-Progress Audits If a user is assigned to conduct an audit (but not granted view/edit result access): - They can still access and complete any in-progress audit they started themselves - However, they cannot view or edit results of completed audits This ensures workflow continuity for auditors while protecting result data visibility. Saving Your Changes Once your access settings are defined: - Click Save Access Rights at the bottom of the screen - Your permission rules will take effect immediately These settings apply across: - Results page (web) - In-app Inspections page (mobile) Best Practices - Grant View Only access to roles like auditors or supervisors - Use Full Access sparingly—for checklist owners or audit managers only - Always enable location restrictions when working across departments or regions - Review permissions when teams or locations are restructured Next article: Manage Who Receives Automatic Audit Reports →
