Calculating whether to add an inspection

You can use an AddOnCondition formula to calculate whether an inspection is added to an application. For example, you could write a formula that requires fireplace inspections for any single-family dwelling being built in a subdivision.

AddOnCondition formulas use the oProjectApp object (an instance of the Hansen.CDR.Project.iProjectApplication class) to set AddOnCondition to either True or False.

You can also use properties and methods of the Inspection object in your formula. For example, you might want to specify the inspection types that the formula applies to. To access inspection properties, select the Inspection node under ProjectSignature in the Methods and Properties tree. You must also use the AssociatedRecordType node to indicate the type of record (AssociatedRecordType.Inspection).

Examples

This formula adds an item if the declared value recorded in the application is greater than $500,000:

AddOnCondition = False
If (oProject.DeclaredValuation > 500000) Then
  AddOnCondition = True
End If

This formula adds an item if the application has a High priority and a Stop Work application status:

AddOnCondition = False
If (oProject.Priority.Code.ToUpper = "HIGH") And (oProject.ApplicationStatus.ToUpper = "STOPWORK") Then
  AddOnCondition = True
End If

This formula adds an item if the application is for a new construction:

AddOnCondition = False
If (oProject.WorkType.Code.ToUpper = "NEW") Then
  AddOnCondition = True
End if
