12 hour maximum period - activity ending

Hi, I think the app automatically closes a lone worker activity after 12 hours, but the user doesn’t receive any notification to check-in or notification that the activity has stopped. We had a situation earlier where a user checked in at 1pm and the activity automatically ended after 12 hours at 16.37, meaning a time period of over 3 hours where the lone worker could have been in trouble. Could this be looked into? Thanks, Harry

Analytics on IssuesNew

It would be highly useful to be able to use analytics to pull data from the issues from the customisable questions on an issue. IE. We are using issues for the public to report on ablution block service requests. If i had a question that was “categorize this issue” and had, Cleanliness Plumbing Electrical Lack of consumables etc I could report on what the most common request is via a dashboard

Removing x2 Section Headings in Reports

I would like to remove the double up of the headings in repeat sections so that it only says "Location 1" and continues chronologically or "Item 1". Instead of "Location Location 1" or Item Item 1" This looks totally unprofessional in a report and I can’t seem to find how to turn the function off Image 1 of how my report shows Image 2 of how the example viewer shows it (how I want it to show up in my reports) Image 3 of how my template is set out as

Enhancement to new Companies featureNew

Just tried out the new “ear;y release” Companies feature. Think it would be great if I can assign the respective sites on my profile to their respective Companies. Currently have upload just a small number of sites and it is becoming very burdensome to find the correct site in such a large list. I think it would be better if the sites were assigned to a company, and after I tell the system which company, it populates the site list to select from. Looking at the current set-up of this feature, I;m not understanding it’s purpose

Enhanced Customization for IssuesNew

Hello SafetyCulture Team and Community, We’re a refrigeration service company based in Iceland but we have different projects all over the world. We are currently exploring ways to expand our use of the Issues feature within SafetyCulture. We understand that Issues is primarily designed for internal use—allowing team members to report hazards, non-conformances, or other workplace issues. However, we see significant potential for it to be adapted into a customer-facing work order tool, especially when integrated with Inspections, Actions, and Assets. As part of our efforts to improve traceability and align with ISO 9001 and 14001 standards, we believe that an expanded and more customizable Issues feature could become a central part of our service workflow. Specifically, we would love to see: Full customization of fields and questions, enabling us to tailor Issues for both internal use and external customer submissions. The possibility to edit the “fixed” questions to Icelandic for examp

Flagged items view as a link

Hello everyone, I would like to know if it is possible and if anyone has managed to use the flagged items as a link to the subsequent pages of the inspections. This is because in multi-page reports it is sometimes difficult for a reader to search for the relevant flagged item. We have already tried to make it easier to read by including chapters and subdivision into paragraphs, but it would be useful if clicking directly on the flagged item would take you directly to the chapter in question, so that you have all the points linked to the flagged item.I enclose an example of the numbered flagged item solution that we have adopted but would still like to improve. As you can see, the items jump from one chapter to the next and this is difficult to read for a user who does not use SC, but only benefits from the final result in .pdf format. Thanks for your answers!

Using issues for maintenance requests (with assets)Planned

With the addition of Assets, I believe Safety Culture is missing out on a great opportunity to allow users to utilize Issues/Actions as a basic maintenance management tool or similar. I realize Safety Culture’s focus is not Maintenance Management, but the fundamentals are already there. I feel like it wouldn’t take much to expand on these features and open up options for users. Adding the ability for users to include assets and expanding on the fields and custom fields available in Issue categories would nearly be enough. From there, creating an action from the Issue (or Request) would action the maintenance and completing the action would then close out the issue. Adding the ability to schedule actions would also allow it to be used as a preventive maintenance system. Have features like this ever been considered? Thanks

Why on Assets is there no Mandatory filed s for us to use / decide - based on our businesses

The current mandatory fields within assets is not working and is very limited. Can SC Technical please provide answers as to why this is the case. Also the labels and dynamic colours? When will this or similar be added? Surely we are missing what we have in templates where a field is added that this could also be a custom drop down field that fits us better and not just standard. This chage or similar imo will only improve the current use and dat collation that also drive the transparent look, visuals and dat crunching ability of the SC dashboard system Regards Jonny

Export of Photo Media from Inspection Reports

I’m currently trying to use the Power Automate integration to create an excel spreadsheet that summarises data from Inspection Reports from a specific template, with the last column in the inspection to include a photo/image of the defect from the inspection. The photos from inspection are stored as media during in the inspection - and when downloading the inspection reports + media, they are given a unique name. Playing around with Power Automate there is a HTTPS link to the photo available as an output, but when trying to access this link I get a forbidden or “this page isn’t working error”. Example output and link as per the below: [{"parent_id":"257116-b5a2-40ba-9ce-2e284979d9","item_id":"32aac8-58b2-4578-bcb7-9626f56d9a","label":"Photos","type":"media","options":{"is_mandatory":true},"responses":{},"media":[{"date_created":"2025-04-01T11:26:24Z","file_ext":"png","label":"Screenshot 2025-02-11 132511.png","media_id":"b77d2b78-7346-44a4-82bb-3cf89c517f4d","href":"https://api.safetyc

Custom Document Numbering Format

The current formatting options for Document Numbering only allows [number], [first], and [last] to be included in the automated documenting numbering. Is it possible to include additional fields and the ability to edit the number of digits used in the [number] format. For example, would it be possible to change the format to be [Asset] - [Number], but the number only has 4 or 5 digits? From the above example, the final Document Number might be CV001 - 0001. The ability to utilise any of the built-in questions in the naming of the document numbering would greatly enhance the ability to filter inspection documents by their asset without opening the inspections. Kind regards, Logan

Custom section title on repeat sections

When creating a repeatable section, each repeated instance is automatically given the same title with an incrementing number — for example, “Instrument 1”, “Instrument 2”, and so on. When dealing with a large number of instruments (e.g. 50 or more), this makes it difficult to identify each one individually. Is there any way to work around this? Ideally, I’d like the repeated section title to either: Automatically use the value from a field within the section (such as a tag number), or Allow the user to manually rename each repeated section when it’s created. In my specific case I’m aiming for is section titles like “TT01”, “TT02”, “PT01”, “FT05”, etc., instead of generic numbering.

QR codes

Hello Safety Culture Forum - would anyone be in agreement that it would be very useful if the Safety Culture programme could create a QR Code within the template. This would allow the user to create a QR code on the spot using a dedicated hand held printer and then to apply a label on the item which they have just inspected. Attached is an example of 3 no. fields from my own template which I would dearly like to see converted into a QR Code which I could then scan and send to a printer. Would be interested to hear what the community thinks?
