We've cleaned up how inspection report fields are labeled throughout the platform. You'll now see "Report Type" (for Compliant/Deficient classification) and "Report Status" (for approval status) used consistently in tables, filters, and exports — no more confusing variations.

Latest Updates to the LIV Inspection Platform

We’ve rolled out several improvements to enhance reliability, usability, and data access across the platform.

🔧 Improvements

Unsaved Work Protection
The app now prompts you to reload instead of auto-refreshing, ensuring your form entries are never lost during an inspection.

Report Downloads Fixed
Inspection reports now export all pages correctly. Previously, some reports were truncated due to size limitations.

Premises Export Without Filters
AHJ users can now download the full premises list without needing to apply filters first.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue with reference number hyphens
• Improved clarity of address field labels
• Resolved Super Admin report deletion issue when deficiencies were present

👉 Read the full release notes

We’ve released updates to our application, fixing bugs and introducing new features.

Premises List & Detail Pages

• Fixed sorting of the Premises List by Premises Name so it now works as expected both A-Z and Z-A.
• Added ability to filter Premises List by Fire Watch Status.
• Refined the System Types tab of the Premises Detail page to more clearly distinguish among:
  • Last Date of Service = date of the last known inspection performed outside of LIV, if known.
  • Inspection Date = date of the most recent inspection report for that system type uploaded into LIV.
  • Renewal Date = date the next inspection for that system type is due, calculated using the renewal plan of the system type and either the Last Date of Service (if the most recent known inspection occurred outside LIV) or Inspection Date (if the most recent known inspection was uploaded to LIV).

AHJ Price Lists

• Fixed permissions-related issue which was preventing a small number of Inspection Company users from being able to view the report upload prices lists for the AHJs they serve.

Notifications & Email Behavior

• Enhanced our Deficiency Notifications to allow users to specify multiple, comma-separated email addresses for additional recipients. This is supported both from the Deficiency List page as well as the Inspection Report Detail page.

These updates are part of our ongoing effort to make LIV more reliable, accurate, and easy to use for both AHJs and Inspection Companies. If you have any questions or notice anything unexpected, please reach out to our Support team.

This secondary notification follow up can be configured to your preference and timing, and will automatically send a follow up notice to premises contacts informing them the deficiency is still past due. To enable this feature, please connect with our support team.

This enhancement improves data consistency and ensures accurate reporting for all affected premises.
