Video Overview

Issuing an Enforcement

To issue an enforcement, first find the establishment that is being issued an enforcement and select the 'New enforcement' tab on their page. Fill out the required information. The ‘Actions Due Date’ refers to the timeframe you want to set for the establishment to complete the required actions. Once finished, select Save if you want to come back and finish the enforcement later, or Issue to issue the enforcement to the establishment.

Once issued, the enforcement will be available to the establishment through their business profile.

You can now view what stage of the process your enforcement is in with smart status updates:

In Progress

The enforcement has been saved but not issued.

Issued

The enforcement has been issued and today's date is before the actions due date.

Past Due

The enforcement has been issued and today's date is after the actions due date.

Resolved

The enforcement has been manually resolved.

Emailing or Printing an Enforcement

Enforcements can be emailed to any contact within the SwiftComply database and they can also be downloaded or printed as PDFs.

To print or email an enforcement from an establishment's profile, click the Enforcements tab in the establishment's activity feed and click the blue enforcement name. Select the small grey printer or email icon from the issued enforcement view.

To print or email an enforcement from the 'Enforcements' tab, click the blue enforcement number. Select the small grey printer or email icon from the issued enforcement view.

To email an enforcement by selecting the mail icon, a modal will pop up to select contacts. This defaults to all contacts on the account, and these may be deleted by pressing the backspace or delete key, or new contacts may be added by typing their name and selecting the correct contact. Once you've chosen the contacts you'd like to send the enforcement to, click Send.

Sorting Enforcements

Select the 'Enforcements’ tab from the navigation bar to view a list of all enforcements.

Search by establishment name and hit Enter, or select an enforcement from the list.

The list of enforcements can be sorted by reference number, establishment, enforcement type, actions due date and status by clicking on the column headings.
