This article provides information regarding the Highwire 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 “Auto-send Reports.” If auto-send reports do not appear in the left navigation pane, 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 for the auto-send report.
Identify the frequency of sending. All reports are sent in the timezone of the user 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.
