How Checks Activate and Expire
Activated - The timestamp indicating when the check becomes active and visible on the quality bar.
Expired - The timestamp indicating when the check expires if not completed, or when the next check of the same type is activated if the current one is completed. This field remains blank until the expiration time is reached.
Completed - The timestamp indicating when the check is completed. If the check expires or remains incomplete, this field remains empty.
Examples for each check type:
Assuming the check was completed at 10:25, note that a shift change or job change can also cause checks to expire.
Incomplete checks have blank values for the “Completed” field.
