Ability to choose multiple ratings in one click

In the Inspection Template Editor, each line has a 'Select Default Rating' section with a dropdown list, allowing only one rating (I, NI, NP, D) to be selected at a time. While the report writer lets you add more ratings, this process becomes tedious, especially when multiple ratings need to be added for each line, and the wait time for each change slows down workflow.
I suggest replacing the Default Rating dropdown list with a set of checkboxes. I use the TREC template for my reports, which appears to only allow the four default ratings, but this could benefit non-TREC templates that support more ratings as well.
With the TREC template, each line could have the intended rating(s) selected from the start, reducing wait time and letting inspectors focus on their entries.

Cesar Quirindongo - Thank you for the additional details. As an FYI we are working to fix the responsiveness in the app. I don't think we will be able to support the checkbox idea, but I understand the overall need and can come up with some other ways to handle this use case. I am committed to speeding up the report writer experience.

Janaya Fix Hi, thank you for your response. I mentioned checkboxes as an example, similar to how answer choices are used in the templates, but it doesn’t have to be checkboxes specifically. Anything that allows selecting multiple ratings for each entry in the template would be very helpful.

Thank you for posting, Cesar Quirindongo! I have a few more questions for you:
- Can you provide more details on how often you need to add multiple ratings for each line?
- Could you clarify how the current wait time impacts your overall workflow?
- Are there any other templates besides the TREC template where you would find this feature beneficial?

- I often need to add multiple ratings depending on the severity of the issue. It’s usually at least "Inspected" and "Deficient," and I have to do this for a large portion of my entries in every report.
- Each change can take several seconds for the system to process. Many of my entries are general and require edits to reflect the specific findings, which is one change. Then I need to add or modify ratings, which is another change. Adding images is another step, and sometimes rearranging those images adds even more time. If I make any mistakes, correcting them adds to the wait time. All of this builds up and slows down my workflow.
- This feature would benefit any template, not just the TREC template I use.
