How do I see a permit's timeline?

This article outlines how you can see the timeline of a permit

All of the actions taken on a permit are shown in its timeline. A permits timeline will detail everything that has happened on a permit and shows things such as:

  • When a permit was Created or Issued and by whom

  • When a permit was Approved, Rejected, or Discarded and by who (where relevant)

  • When a permit was Opened

  • When a periodic check was done on a permit and by whom

  • When a permit was Transferred and to whom

  • When an extension was requested and who approved the extension

  • When a participant was added to a permit and who they were

  • When a permit Expires

  • When a post permit check was done and by whom

  • When final sign off was done and by whom

All permit actions are recorded and timestamped, and each record also shows the person who performed the action. ⌚
