When a customer brings a vehicle back, you don't have to dig through past jobcards to find what was inspected last time. The Inspector Panel has a Vehicle tab that lists previous inspection submissions for the current vehicle, with a 13-month cutoff by default.
What you see
For each previous submission:
- Template name
- A status badge: Complete, In Progress, or Not Started
- A Current tag when the submission belongs to the jobcard you have open
Expanding a row
Click a row to expand it inline in the panel — every field and the value the technician recorded appears below the header, with how long ago it was completed at the bottom. No need to navigate away to the source jobcard; the full inspection content shows in place.
Why 13 months
Long enough to cover annual events like MOT, short enough that the list doesn't get unwieldy. If a vehicle has no inspections in the last 13 months, the panel shows a View all button that loads everything for that vehicle regardless of age. (When there's at least one result in the window, the button doesn't currently appear — to see older inspections you'd need to navigate to the originating jobcard.)
Cross-jobcard
Previous inspections are surfaced regardless of which jobcard they were originally attached to. The lens is the vehicle, not the visit.
