# Set up checklist items

> Set up each checklist item type, from the policies staff sign off to the training they complete, and choose how often each item comes back and who can complete it.

<Note>
  **Quick summary**

  * Each checklist item has a type, such as *Training*, and you choose how often it recurs and who can complete it.
  * A document in a checklist item stays on the version you added until you move the item to a newer version.
  * Device Reporting adds people's devices to your asset register, and a checklist can have only 1.
</Note>

Add an item with **New Item** in the checklist's editor, then set it up for its [item type](/people/checklists#what-a-checklist-is-made-of).

## Resources

<Steps>
  <Step title="Name the item">
    Click **New Item** → **Resources**, fill in *Item Label* and *Item Description*, then click **Continue**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a resource">
    Expand the item and click **Add resource to** *item name*. In *Add checklist resource*, pick one:

    * *Assuric Document*, for a document in Assuric. It opens the *Document Picker*, where you link an existing document or add a new one.
    * *Evidence / File*, for a file from your evidence.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the version and title, then add it">
    A document is added at its latest approved version. Click **Untag** to pick a different one. Change the filled-in *Title* if staff know the document by another name. Click **Add**, and repeat for each document or file.

    </Frame>
  </Step>
</Steps>

To change a resource's title later, open its **⋯** menu and click **Edit**. To take it out, click **Remove from list**.

A document stays on that version until you approve a new one and [move the item to it](/people/checklists#when-the-document-changes).

## Checklist Input

| Form | What the person does |
| - | - |
| Acceptance | Ticks each statement you list, like *I will report any data breach within 24 hours* |
| Form | Fills in checkbox fields and **Upload file** fields, and an upload field can allow several files |

Mark an acceptance statement as required if it must be ticked. Switch on *Require signature?* to ask for the person's name and position when they complete it.

## Training

Click **Add modules to item** to pick the modules. Switch on *Require file upload?* if people must upload a completion certificate.

## Device Reporting

People report their devices, and Assuric adds them to your asset register automatically. A checklist can have only 1 Device Reporting item.

## Item settings

Every item type has the same settings, changed from its **⋯** menu → **Edit**:

| Setting | What it does |
| - | - |
| **Refresh** | How often it needs to be completed again, if at all |
| **Enabled** | Whether the item is included in the checklist, so turning it off takes the item out without deleting it |
| **Completable by** | Who can tick it off |

An item only admins can complete isn't shown on the staff portal.
