Digital Logbook

The Digital Logbook is where authorized users can configure checklists, task lists, flow of food, corrective actions, and schedule management that will appear within the SmartSense mobile app (formerly NEXT). Once an item is created, the data instantly syncs to the mobile app. All configurations related to checklists, quick actions, and food safety in the mobile app can only be modified within the SmartSense web app under the Digital Logbook.

After logging into your SmartSense account, select the DIGITAL LOGBOOK tab.

Please note that some of the features under the Digital Logbook tab are only available for Super Administrator users. You can learn about the various user roles and permissions here.

This Digital Logbook tab will display five options:

1. Checklists: A catalog of items that are managed through a specified process and within a set window of time
2. Task Lists: These are composed of a set of actions that must be completed
3. Flow of Food: The course food takes from receiving and storage through preparation, cooking, holding, serving, cooling, and reheating
4. Corrective Actions: Critical actions that you perform to fix an issue to resolve the root cause of the issue
5. Schedule Management: Set up a checklist suspension period for holidays, closures, or scheduled maintenance for your location/department to control reporting during a designated span of time.
