This article will walk you through how to locate and add or remove the Overview tab/grid from your template and your report. The Overview tab and grid can be added to or removed from a template, a report, or an individual section.


What is the Overview Tab/Grid?

You may have seen the Overview tab/grid on another inspector's report, one of the sample reports on our website, or even on your own inspection report. This tab contains the grid for your Item Ratings - the Inspected (IN), Not Inspected (NI), Not Present (NP), and Defect (D) boxes you select while filling out the report.

This is what a report looks like with the Overview Tab enabled. You'll notice that it displays first, before the Information and Standards tabs.
