How to enable training mode

Training Mode is a feature that can be activated when training staff (e.g., when opening a new location). During this training period, the checklist completion percentage will not be calculated into your location’s score to ensure the checklist completion data remains accurate and relevant.  

This feature can only be managed by a user with Super Administrator permissions.
