Yard Checks in the Yardor Yard App

Walk a yard check on your phone: work the list zone by zone, confirm what is in place, report what is not — missing, misplaced, wrong number, seal issue, or an extra vehicle — and close the check with the four-count summary.

A yard check walks the yard and compares what is actually there against the list: this trailer should be on that spot, that container should carry that number. In the Yardor Yard App, checks live under the Yard checks tab in the bottom bar. Your job on the walk is evidence, not editing: you confirm what matches and report what does not, and a supervisor decides what to do about each report on the web.

The check list#

The list merges the planned checks with the ones assigned to you, each shown once, grouped as in progress, not started, and completed. A check with findings carries a findings badge with the count, so open issues are visible before you even open the check. The list only routes you — tap a check to work it. If it cannot refresh, the last synced copy stands in and the screen marks it stale once it is old.

Starting a check on the spot#

1. From the check list, open New check and pick the scope: the whole yard (a sweep), one or more zones, or specific spots.
2. For a zone or spot check, tick the zones or spots to include.
3. Create the check. Creating needs a connection, and the screen says so plainly: the item list is built from who is on site at that moment, so it has to come from the server — a check is never invented from a stale phone copy.

Working the check#

The run screen works zone by zone. The top of the screen keeps your progress — how many items are done — and the findings count so far. For each item, look at the spot itself, not at the list:

• It is there, with the right number: tap Confirm. The confirmation is saved on the phone right away — you can confirm item after item without waiting on the signal.
• Something is off: tap Report issue and file a finding (next section) — do not confirm an item you did not actually see matching.
• A vehicle is sitting there that is not on the list at all: use Report extra vehicle and file it as an extra, with where you found it.

Reporting a finding#

A finding says: here is what I found, and here is the evidence. Pick the kind that fits — one per problem:

• Missing — the equipment on the list is not at its spot, and not anywhere you can see.
• Misplaced — it is in the yard, but on a different spot than the list says.
• Number mismatch — the equipment is there, but its number is not the listed one.
• Seal issue — a seal is missing, broken, or carries a different number.
• Extra — a vehicle or equipment is on site that the list does not know about.
• Other — anything else that does not fit the kinds above.

Fill in what you actually saw: the observed value (the number as it reads on the equipment), the actual location where you found it, and a photo if it helps — a photo of a broken seal or of the wrong trailer settles the question later. Then submit. Reporting changes nothing in the yard records by itself: the finding waits in the Web Findings queue, where a supervisor confirms and corrects the record — moving the equipment on paper to where you saw it, or marking it departed — or rejects the report, with a note either way. Your report is the evidence that decision stands on.

Closing the check: the summary#

When the walk is done, open the summary from the run screen. It closes the check with four counts, so nothing is ambiguous: how many items were expected, how many you confirmed, how many findings you filed, and how many are still pending. The findings you filed are listed read-only under the counts — what you reported is what the supervisor works from.

Completing is one tap and is sent right away. If items are still pending, the app stops you first with a dialog naming how many are left — go back and finish them, or, if you truly mean to close with items unchecked, confirm again from that dialog. A completed check shows its closing summary and is done; it does not reopen from the phone.
