# Audit planner: overview

> A schedule of planned audits — who audits where and when. Calendar views, browsing periods, metrics, location coverage and conflicts.

Источник: https://jecheck.io/en/docs/planner/overview

The Planner lays out recurring audits on a calendar: you set the checklist, locations, auditor and schedule once, and jeCheck creates an audit for each date, sends reminders and marks completed ones automatically. The section is in the **Work → Planner** menu.

## How it works

1. **The administrator creates a plan.** The **Schedule audit** button opens a six-step wizard — see [How to schedule audits](/docs/planner/create-plan).
2. **The auditor sees audits in the app.** The mobile app shows the audits assigned to them for today. If reminders are turned on in the plan, a push arrives a day and/or an hour before the audit. The auditor doesn't need access to the Planner.
3. **jeCheck matches the plan against what actually happened.** If an audit on the same checklist at the same location is submitted within the planned date's window (on the day itself or within the plan's tolerance), the planned audit becomes **Completed**. If the date has passed with no audit — **Overdue**; once the window closes — **Missed**. Learn more in [Planned audit statuses](/docs/planner/statuses).

The **How it works** button in the section header opens a visual guide with examples.

## Who can do what

- **The company administrator** creates, edits and deletes plans and series templates, and reschedules, reassigns and cancels individual audits.
- **Other employees with web dashboard access** see planned audits for their locations (the ones they are assigned to) and those assigned to them personally. They can mark their own audit as completed and undo that mark.

## Browsing months and weeks

Above the calendar on the left are the **‹** and **›** arrows and the **Today** button:

- in the **Month**, **List** and **Locations** views, the arrows move between months;
- in the **Week** and **Auditors** views — between weeks;
- **Today** returns to the current month or week.

The metrics at the top of the page are recalculated for the selected month.

## Metrics at the top of the page

The cards are based on the selected month's audits, with filters applied:

- **Audits in plan** — how many planned audits there are in the month;
- **Completed**, **Overdue**, **Missed** — the number of audits in each status;
- **Location coverage** — the share of locations with planned audits in the month;
- **Conflicts** — audits that overlap in time for the same auditor.

Next to the number is the change from the previous month (green means better, red means worse), and under it a mini chart by week for the previous and selected months. If there were no planned audits in the previous month, the change isn't shown. **Overdue** has no comparison: it's a temporary state while the audit window is open.

## Calendar views

The switch above the calendar:

- **Month** — the selected month. A day cell shows up to three audits; the rest are behind the **+ N more** link.
- **Week** — the selected week by hour, from 07:00 to 20:00.
- **List** — audits by day. In the current month — from today to the end of the month plus one week of the next; in any other month — the whole month. Each shows the location, auditor and a **Series** or **One-off** label.
- **Auditors** — each auditor's workload for the selected week and the number of conflicts.
- **Locations** — location coverage for the selected month: person in charge, audit frequency, last and next audit, status.

Clicking any audit opens its card: date, time, location, auditor, repeat rule, counting window and series history. What you can do in the card — see [Planned audit statuses](/docs/planner/statuses).

## Location coverage

In the **Locations** view, coverage is the share of completed audits among a location's planned audits for the selected month whose date has already come:

- 90% and above — **OK**;
- 70% to 89% — **Needs attention**;
- below 70% — **At risk**;
- all of the month's audits are still ahead — **Upcoming**; no planned audits — **No plan**.

The person in charge is the first employee assigned to the location. "not scheduled" in the last and next audit columns means the location has no future planned audits in the loaded period.

## Filters and search

Filters by status, location, auditor and checklist work in every view. The **Find an audit…** field searches by location name, checklist name and auditor name. On the right you can see how many audits are shown for the selected period; **Reset** clears all filters.

## Schedule conflicts

A conflict is two audits for the same auditor on the same day that overlap in time, taking duration into account. Such audits are marked with a red dot, and the audit card shows a warning. Reschedule or reassign one of them.

## Series templates

The **Series templates** button in the section header (visible to administrators) opens saved plan settings: checklist, locations, auditor, schedule, tolerance and notifications — without dates. **Create plan** opens the wizard already filled in with the template's settings. How to save a template is explained in [How to schedule audits](/docs/planner/create-plan).

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I see next month's audits?

Click the **›** arrow above the calendar. In the **Month**, **List** and **Locations** views it moves forward a month; in the **Week** and **Auditors** views — a week.

### Does the auditor need access to the Planner?

No. They see today's planned audits in the mobile app — see [How to carry out an audit in the mobile app](/docs/mobile/conduct-audit). Audit reminders arrive as push notifications if they are turned on in the plan.

### Why can't I see the "Schedule audit" button?

Only company administrators can create and edit plans. Other employees see planned audits for their locations and those assigned to them.

### Where can I see how well the plan is being followed over a long period?

In **Analytics → Plan completion** — for any period, broken down by location, auditor and checklist. See [Plan completion and tasks](/docs/analytics/plan-and-tasks).
