Printing a Fire Evacuation Report from the Portal:
From the reports section Sign In App portal you can view, print, export and delete evacuation reports. You can navigate to your evacuation reports from the portal by going to Evacuate > View previous report or Reports > Evacuations, click on a report to view the report details.
Clicking the printer icon will give you the option to print or download the report. Click the bin icon to delete the report (this action can’t be undone).
Printing a Fire Evacuation Report from the Companion App:
From Sign In App Companion, tap the evacuation icon and then select View previous reports. You will see a list of all the evacuation reports that have been carried out. Tap to view the full details of the report.
Starting a Fire Evacuation:
From Sign In App Companion, tap the evacuation icon at the bottom, make sure the correct Site is selected and tap Start an evacuation. A timer will display how long the evacuation has been in progress. Below this there’s an overview of the shared report and you can toggle between sorting by groups or evacuation points.
Towards the bottom there’s a list of the participants who have joined the report (this can include users logged in to the portal, staff members on Companion, and the iPads connected to your site). You will also see any offline iPads, this is important because offline records won’t appear on the evacuation list. Finally, you can add comments, these are visible for everyone who has joined the report.
Ending and Leaving a Fire Evacuation Report:
Once you’ve accounted for everyone on site it’s time to finish the evacuation report. Tapping Finish report will give you two options, Close the report for all and Leave report.
Tapping Close the report for all will end the report for all participants - only do this if you’re sure the evacuation has been completed, once confirmed this action cannot be undone.
Selecting Leave report will keep the evacuation running, but the device you’re using will leave the report, you can rejoin the report after doing this.
