This is how your food cooking monitoring task looks like in the app:

Please note!

  • The setup feature is available only on a desktop. It means you cannot set up your monitoring task instructions in our app solution.
  • App the best solution for your team to monitor daily tasks. Download it for your Apple iOS or Android devices and on your tablet.

Follow these steps to create a temperature log monitoring task for fridges and freezers:


  • Give a name to your monitoring task (for example - Temperature log: Fridges)

Please note! Monitoring tasks for recording the temperatures of fridges and freezers should be created as separate tasks. You should only select either fridges or freezers from the equipment list.

  • Relate your task to rooms and equipment to save time on sorting and completing your daily food safety-related tasks

Please note!

  • Select the Form option (Form/Checklist)
  • Add educative instructions to your monitoring task. Read how to do it.
    • Specify the Task frequency according to your company's needs:

    Please note:

    • If you don't find a suitable frequency from the dropdown, choose 'Custom frequency.' Read here how to set it up
    • For unregular tasks that you register once in a while, choose 'Not specified.'  They will be marked grey in your app.

     

    Tip! It is a recommended practice for any food operation to check and record the temperatures of fridges and freezers at least twice a day.

     

    • Select the executor (the team who is responsible for this task)

    Please note! If you don't find a suitable role from the dropdown, read How to create new team roles.

    • Set up required Min and Max temperature range for fridges/freezers (see local regulations for recommended practices for storage of refrigerated and frozen food items)

    • Tick on/off If entry is out of limits, ask for an explanation

      - Tick on - this will enable a pop up with a list of corrective actions to select if the temperature entry is outside of the temperature range
    • Type in the word: Corrective action in the empty field under the Question
    • Click on ADD OPTION
    • Create and input a list of corrective actions (you can add as many corrective actions as you need; a list of corrective actions will come up when the temperature is outside of the set temperature range)
    • Tick on Use "Add other" option - user will be able to type in a customer corrective action
    • Click SAVE

    •  Inform your team so they can start monitoring the task
