After a procedure has been submitted for approval, the approver is able to make edits until the final approval. When a procedure is in an approved status it cannot be edited.
If things change or edits are determined to be needed during a periodic inspection, a procedure can be unapproved. This allows the procedure to be modified as needed and then submitted for reapproval.
This is a quick process that does not require starting over with a new procedure. When a procedure is revised, it is assigned a new ID number and QR code to ensure version tracking and undisrupted history data.
Do I need to print and file periodic inspection records?SSsupport2025-12-23T09:56:11-04:00
No. The lockout tagout software portal stores all periodic inspections in the database permanently. Periodic inspection reports can be run on-demand as needed.
During an OSHA audit, periodic inspection data can be produced for any equipment criteria and any date range at the click of a button.
Can I use digital lockout for minor servicing?SSsupport2025-12-23T10:43:24-04:00
Yes. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app includes a minor servicing module.
With this module, QR codes can be applied to individual energy sources. Scanning an energy source QR code launches a mini-procedure and changes the equipment status on the dashboard to minor servicing.
What happens when a periodic inspection determines that changes to the procedure are required?SSsupport2025-12-23T09:55:38-04:00
Anytime a lockout tagout procedure is unapproved, edited, and re-approved, it is assigned a new procedure ID number.
This offers version tracking when reviewing historical reports and makes it possible to see which lockout tagout procedure was used at any point in time.
Can I limit what users have access to?SSsupport2025-12-23T09:59:18-04:00
Yes. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout software has built in user permission groups to ensure users only perform functions that they are authorized to do.
The user groups allow or block the ability to create procedures, approve procedures, perform periodic inspections, perform machine lockout tagout events, or run reports.
Admins have complete control over who is given access to various software. This ensures that only authorized employees have the ability to use the lockout tagout software to perform a digital lockout.
