DQ Prequalification Checklist


 

The Prequalification Checklist is designed to help in obtaining, completing, and recording DOT and company-specific information when an employee is first hired.

 

There are two options available when editing this information:

  • Edit the entire list at once, which will not allow for specific notes to be entered.
  • Edit an item individually, which will allow for specific notes to be entered.

 

This area is located directly beneath the Driver Equipment sections. The items shown here are some typical items collected during the hiring process. Since this is configurable, system administrators can choose other items to be included in this list.

Edit All

To update the entire list, or multiple items at once, click the Edit All button at the top.

The Edit Prequalification List screen will be shown. Fill in the items per the following:

  1. Description - The item itself is not editable; this is simply the name of the item.
  2. N/A - Check N/A if the item is not applicable to the employee. If checked, the system will no longer see the item as applicable and will ignore it.  Note: There may be items that have this box shaded out. This means that the administrator has made this item required.
  3. Date - Enter the date (mm/dd/yyyy or mm-dd-yyyy format) obtained/completed. Either type in the date or use the calendar option next to the field. (The date cannot be a future date. It should be the date obtained/completed, not the expiration date.)
  4. Status - After the date is entered, the status may default to a value for the user. This would be a default value setup by the administrator. If the item remains as Not Specified, use the drop-down to select a value -- i.e., Completed, Received, or Issued.
     

Note: Prequalification checklists need both a status and date to be considered complete and satisfy the "Incomplete" alert. (Reminder: The date cannot be a future date. It should be the date obtained/completed, not the expiration date.) The Prequalification list does not impact whether a driver is considered "qualified" in Encompass; only the DQ Maintenance checklist impacts qualification. See DQ Maintenance Checklist for more information.

Once all necessary information is entered, click Save.

 

Note: The Clear All Data will delete both completed and due dates for the entire list, along with any attachments saved with the items.  

 

 

Edit Individual Checklist Items

While viewing the Prequalification Checklist, hover to the right of the checklist item and action items will display.  Click the pencil icon to Edit the checklist item.

The Edit Prequalification screen is then shown.

  1. Not Applicable - Select Not Applicable if the item is not applicable to the employee. If the switch is on, the system will no longer see the item as applicable and will ignore it.  Note: There may be items that have this box shaded out. This means that the administrator has made this item required.
  2. Date - Enter the date (mm/dd/yyyy or mm-dd-yyyy format) of process or completion. Either type in the date or use the calendar option next to the field.
  3. Status - After the date is entered, the status may default to a value for the user. This would be a default value setup by the administrator. If the item remains as Not Specified, use the drop-down to select a value -- i.e., Completed, Received, or Issued.
  4. Notes - While this text box is rather large, only the first line of the note will appear on reports, so it is suggested to make any notes as brief as possible.

Adding Ad Hoc CheckList Items

There may be situations where a checklist item might not apply to an entire group of employees, but instead, they apply to an individual.  The Add New option is available at the top of the checklist.

 

To add a single checklist item for an individual employee, click Add New at the top of the list.

The user will then be taken to the Add Ad-Hoc Employee Prequalification screen.

  1. Checklist Item Drop Down - This drop-down menu will contain any existing checklist items that have NOT been assigned to this driver's job class yet.
  2. Date - (Format as mm/dd/yyyy or mm-dd-yyyy or use the calendar tool) The date the item was processed or completed.
  3. Status - This will auto-fill if the system administrator has set this up. Otherwise, use a drop-down to select a value.
  4. Notes - While this text box is rather large, only the first line of the note will appear on reports, so it is suggested to make any notes as brief as possible.
