# Track checklist completion and send reminders

> See who's completed each checklist, item by item and person by person, and remind people about what's outstanding.

<Note>
  **Quick summary**

  * You can see who has completed each checklist, item by item and person by person, and remind people about what's outstanding.
  * A person's checklist *History* links the exact policy version they confirmed, which is your evidence for an auditor.
  * Automatic checklist reminders are off until an Admin switches them on.
</Note>

## Across all your checklists

The *Staff overview* on the Checklists screen has a bar per checklist, labelled with its internal *Label*.

<Frame caption="The Staff overview, one bar per checklist.">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/assuric-docs/DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw/images/people/checklists-staff-overview.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw&q=85&s=d7feff848545d8dd69f90fcae3a5994a" alt="The Staff overview chart with a bar per checklist, each split into green complete and red overdue counts" width="940" height="367" data-path="images/people/checklists-staff-overview.png" />
</Frame>

Below it, the people table's *Checklists* column shows whether each person is *COMPLETE* or *OVERDUE* across all their checklists. Filter it by *Account Status* to include people who've left.

## One checklist, item by item

Click the count on a checklist, like **1/4**, to open its progress.

<Frame caption="A checklist's progress. **1** shows, for each item, how many people have completed it and how many are overdue. **2** lists the people it's assigned to.">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/assuric-docs/DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw/images/people/checklists-completion-by-item.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw&q=85&s=232dddf89884119294af4b0e68b1b199" alt="The progress dialog for the Staff Compliance Checklist, with a bar per item showing completed and overdue counts, and a Staff progress list below it with each person marked OVERDUE" width="790" height="616" data-path="images/people/checklists-completion-by-item.png" />
</Frame>

The chart shows which item is holding people up. The same chart appears in the editor's *Completion Progress* section.

## One person, every checklist

Click a person in the progress list to open their *Staff compliance* sheet. It's the same as the *Checklists* section of their sheet on the **People** tab.

<Frame caption="A person's Staff compliance sheet. **1** Send reminder. **2** The Current and History toggle.">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/assuric-docs/DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw/images/people/checklists-staff-compliance.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw&q=85&s=07e28f2a211799b4f134026a31122dde" alt="The Staff compliance sheet for Cordi Mahony, with a Checklists section marked OVERDUE, a Send reminder button, an Overall count of 3 of 31 completed items in 6 checklists with 28 overdue, a Current and History toggle, and each checklist listed with its own count" width="790" height="556" data-path="images/people/checklists-staff-compliance.png" />
</Frame>

The sheet shows:

* **Overall:** how many items they've completed, across how many checklists, and how many are overdue.
* **Current:** each checklist they've been given, with their progress on it. Expand one to see its items.
* **History:** the items they've completed, with the date and time of each.

On your own sheet, **Visit staff portal** opens the portal as a member of staff would see it.

<Info>
  *History* here lists one person's completed checklist items. For who changed what across Assuric, use the [Activity log](/settings/audit-log), under **Activity** in the sidebar.
</Info>

## Show an auditor who has signed off a policy

Your evidence is the policy's [*Resources* item](/people/checklists#resources-items-signing-off-a-policy). Click the checklist's count to open its progress, then click a person. On their sheet, click **History** and expand the item to see:

* each document they confirmed, linked to the exact version they read;
* who completed it, as their email address, and the date and time;
* *Refreshes at*: when they'll be asked to confirm it again.

<Frame caption="A person's History, with a Resources item expanded. 1 is History. 2 is the document they confirmed; click it to open the version they read. 3 is Item completed, with the date, time and their email, and Refreshes at, when they'll be asked again.">

## Send reminders

**Send reminder** emails people about checklist items they haven't completed. Only an Admin can send one, from 2 places:

| Where | Who it reminds |
| - | - |
| A Staff checklist's editor, in **Completion Progress** | Everyone with outstanding items on that checklist |
| A person's sheet, in **Checklists** | That person, about all their outstanding items |

An Administrative checklist has no **Send reminder**, since an Admin completes it.

### Remind people automatically

To send reminders on a schedule:

* Open your account menu (your initial, top right) → **Notification Preferences** → **Organisation Notifications**, and switch on *Enable* for *Checklist reminders*. Only workspace admins can switch them on.
* Choose how often it sends. Assuric then emails everyone in the workspace about their own outstanding assigned checklists.

<Frame caption="Checklist reminders in Organisation Notifications, off until you switch on Enable.">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/assuric-docs/DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw/images/people/checklist-reminders-setting.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DF7jt0hMRipYoIUw&q=85&s=6997c87b65448648411300309102aed4" alt="The Organisation Notifications tab with the Checklist reminders row, reading Recurring email reminders for overdue and upcoming assigned checklists, and an Enable switch turned off" width="750" height="145" data-path="images/people/checklist-reminders-setting.png" />
</Frame>

Each person's own [*Upcoming and Overdue Summary*](/notifications/personal-notification-settings) can also include overdue checklist items.

<Tip>
  **What we recommend**

  Before an audit, start from the *Staff overview*: the bars with the most overdue show which checklist to open, and that checklist's item chart shows which item to chase. Then send one checklist-level reminder, not one per person.
