Be sure to update your Parklane System contact Support at support@parklanesys.com to assist with updating the Online Forms.
Incident Reporting Module - Updates
The following are some of the changes that have been incorporated. For a complete list of updates, view the Revision List on our Resource Page.
1.
Parklane Form Letters, which can be emailed directly from the system, now includes CC and BC options, as well as the ability to customize the outgoing email text. Emailed form letters are automatically linked in Document Links and recorded in the audit report.
If your Personal Data does not have email addresses, you can add them manually and hit the Update button (F6). This action will update the employee's Personal Data file to now include the email address for future use.
2.
Any new claims added (HC, LT, Reo) will now default to "Pending" status.
Risk Assessment Module - Updates
Major enhancements have been made to the Online Risk Assessment form. To receive this new form, be sure to bring your Parklane System up to date - then contact Support for assistance.
Some of the features now available:
1.
Add multiple locations to your assessment at once - all of which default to "No Hazards Found". This means you can capture all assessed locations during your assessment, instead of adding them one at a time.
2.
Images can now be captured and uploaded directly to the hazard. Parklane will store the images in Document Links - identifying the hazard it is attached to, the location it was taken and corresponding hazard number.
3.
Hazards found are now collapsible. The inspector no longer has to scroll through many hazards and locations to review the entire assessment prior to submission.

- Automatic customizable review notifications
- Automatic overdue and reminder notices
