How to do it in YourCA
Questions subbies ask
- Does it set the test and tag interval for me?
- No. It ticks the usual checks for each kind of item, and you set how often each one falls due.
- What happens to an item that fails?
- You say whether it is tagged out, sent for repair or retired. It goes back to the yard unless you say it stays where it is.
