Introduction
This article provides information regarding the Highwire Legacy Inspect report criteria, report types, and how to effectively filter based on your needs.
Primary Criteria: All Highwire reports are categorized by “Primary Criteria.” The primary criterion is a slicer that organizes the data by the selected criteria. The four primary criteria are:
- Category Based - organizes the data by inspection category;
- Inspector Based - organizes the data by the inspector user;
- Contractor Based - organizes the data by the observed contractors
- Project Based - organizes the data by the project
Report Type: The report type is driven by the primary criteria selection. Each report contains different data organized by the primary criteria.

Creating Auto-Send Reports:
Auto-send reports are recurring reports sent on a specified basis and to assigned users. Auto-send reports can also be used as templates for frequently run ad-hoc reports.
To create an auto-send report, navigate to the Reports section and click the Legacy Reports tab. Then click on the Inspect subcategory and “Autosend Reports.” If auto-send reports do not appear, contact your system administrator and request permission to use the auto-send feature.
Name the report appropriately.
Identify the recipients of the report. This can be done by job title, searching the contact database, or entering emails into the box. *Note, leaving this section blank will create a template for ad-hoc reports.
Identify the report criteria and filters within the Identify Criteria section.
Identify the frequency of sending. All reports are sent in the user's timezone when creating the report.
Click “Save” to complete the report.
All existing auto-send reports will appear in the left navigation pane. To edit, delete or run an ad-hoc report, click the report in the left navigation and modify it appropriately.
Exporting a Bulk PDF Report
This feature allows client users to export large zip files of individual inspection and incident reports based on specified parameters.
1. Open the Legacy Reports Tab within the Reports left-hand navigation menu.
2. Select the [Individual Inspection Reports] or [Individual Incident Reports] from [Primary Criteria]
3. When creating a bulk export of Inspection or Incident reports PDF, the action buttons at the bottom of the page will be limited to either [Reset Filters] or [Export to PDF] because for this type of report, there is only one desired functionality, which is to download reports.
4. Once you have selected the search criteria you desire, click the [Export to PDF] button and you should see a loading icon along with a text prompt stating the ‘Report generation is in progress.'
5. This downloading process can take a variable amount of time, so in order to reduce the waiting period, customers are encouraged to limit the timeframe and search criteria when making report exports.
6. Once the download is complete you should see the zip file icon within your browser download center and you can access the file by selecting it and moving it to your local file storage center:
