Export the Snag List Log
Objective
To export the Snag List log to a PDF or CSV file.
Background
For users who do not have access to the Snag List tool or prefer a printout of their open snag list items, you may want to provide them with a PDF that includes related photos and drawing snapshots. By providing your construction personnel with important visual information that helps them better understand the nature of the open item and what's required to properly resolve it, you'll be able to expedite the snag list process.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Read Only' or higher permissions on the project's Snag List tool.
- Additional Information:
- Use the filters (e.g. Assignee Company, Location, Type, etc.) to focus attention on specific items and limit total page length. For example, you may want to export contractor-specific PDFs.
- 'PDF w/ photos & drawings' exports that have 300 or more snag list items are at a greater risk to fail or time out. We recommend limiting this type of snag list export to less than 300 items at one time.
