Maintenance Logs capture operational activity that is not a chemistry test.

Best for

  • documenting repairs and upkeep
  • tracking chemical additions outside test entry
  • keeping a written history of non-chemistry operations

Purpose

Use maintenance logs for:
  • chemical additions
  • cleaning work
  • inspections
  • equipment repair
  • filter media replacement
  • other facility operations

Creating a maintenance log

Go to:

Fields captured

  • location
  • pool (optional)
  • date and time
  • category
  • description

Category suggestions

The current form includes suggested categories:
  • Chemical Addition
  • Filter Media Replacement
  • Equipment Repair
  • Cleaning
  • Inspection
  • Other

Pool is optional

If an activity applies to the whole facility rather than one body of water, leave the pool blank and the log will remain location-scoped only.

Typical walkthrough

2

Add maintenance log

Select Add maintenance log.
3

Choose location and pool

Choose the location and optionally the pool.
4

Describe the work

Pick the closest category and write a precise description.
5

Save

Save the entry and use the detail page as the permanent reference record.

Correcting a saved record

Maintenance logs support editing and soft delete. Deleted items are removed from routine lists but are still intended to remain audit-visible for compliance purposes. Editing a saved log is treated as a correction, not a silent overwrite. Select Edit, make your changes, and enter a reason — it’s required. What happens next depends on your permissions:
  • If you hold maintenance_logs:correct, the correction applies immediately. It’s still logged as a correction (self-reviewed), so the audit trail is complete.
  • Otherwise, the correction is held as pending until someone with maintenance_logs:correct approves it (applying the change) or rejects it (with required notes explaining why).
Any log with an approved correction shows a Corrected badge, and the detail page’s Corrections section lists every correction’s reason, a before/after comparison, who requested it, and who reviewed it.

Best practices

  • use precise descriptions
  • include material amounts when logging chemical additions
  • tie work to a specific pool whenever possible
  • use consistent categories so filtering stays useful
