# Audit folder: inspection evidence for auditors and the insurer

The manufacturer's auditor, the accident insurer or your own quality officer wants to see that all tools subject to inspection have been inspected – with reports and certificates. Instead of printing pages one by one, Tulz creates the complete **audit folder** as a ZIP with one click.

### What is inside

- **Pruefmittelliste.pdf** – all tools subject to inspection at the site (landscape, with inventory number, name, manufacturer/type, serial number, category, storage location, inspection interval, last and next inspection, result, inspector) and a summary: how many inspected, overdue, never inspected
- **Pruefmittelliste.csv** – the same list for Excel
- **Pruefprotokolle/** – for each tool the report of the last completed inspection as PDF (`<number>_<date>.pdf`), with measured values from the inspection template, result and remark
- **Zertifikate/** – uploaded calibration certificates, where available
- **LIESMICH.txt** – company, site, creation date, who created the folder and which tools still have no inspection

Retired tools are left out; postponed inspections do not count as completed.

### Creating the folder

1. Open *Inspections*. The active **site** at the top determines which tools are included (head office: all sites).
2. Optionally enter a number or a term in the search field – then the folder contains only matching tools (e.g. only torque wrenches).
3. Click **Audit folder**. Tulz builds the folder and downloads it (`Audit-Mappe-<date>.zip`). With many tools this takes a few seconds.

The button is visible to employees with the right *Manage inspections* (workshop foreman, administrator). Every download is recorded in the activity log.

### Before the audit

- Upload certificates from the calibration lab with the inspection (or have them entered via the *Lab access*) – then they are in the folder.
- If the report is missing for older inspections, it is generated from the saved data; measured values exist only if an inspection template was used.
- The folder is a snapshot. For the archive, file the ZIP under the audit date.
