Integration of SafetyCulture Actions and HWIT Issues

Gary Hawton

Last Update 8 maanden geleden

You are able to synchronize Actions created during a SafetyCulture inspection and Issues in the HWIT system. Changes made in one system (mostly) synchronize, but as there are more options and fields available in an Issue not everything will sync. Please review the chart below.


To turn on integrations, you need to set the options in your Preferences screen, in the SafetyCulture Settings section:

Sync Actions to HWIT Issues: if set to Yes, when you enter a new Action during a SafetyCulture inspection, it will automatically create an Issue in HWIT.

Create Action when Issue Created: will create an Action in SafetyCulture when a new Issue is created in HWIT. This feature is currently not available.


Once turned on, any new Actions or modifications to Actions will be automatically processed and updated to the corresponding Issue, and vice versa. Note that currently the only way to initiate the integration is to create the Action in SafetyCulture – creating an Issue in HWIT will not integrate. However, once you create the Action you can make changes to the Issue and they will also update the Action accordingly.

Performing this to an Action in SafetyCulture:Will make the following changes to the Issue:
Create a new ActionWill create a new Issue, populate the Title, the Assigned To, the Due Date, the Issue Date, and set the Status to “New Issue”
Change the Due DateWill change the Due Date
Change the TitleWill change the Issue Description
Change the DescriptionWill change the Issue Notes
Change the AssignmentWill change the Assignment
Change the Status to CompletedWill change the Status to Completed
Change the Status to Can’t DoWill change the Status to Cancelled
Deleting the ActionWill change the Status to Cancelled, but leave the Issue in the system
Change the Status back to To DoWill change the status to New Issue
Performing this to an Issue in HWIT (which originated from an Action in SafetyCulture):Will make the following change to the Action in SafetyCulture:
Change the DescriptionWill change the Title
Change the NotesWill change the Description
Change the AssignmentWill change the Assignment
Change the Status to CompletedWill change the Status to Completed
Change the Status to CancelledWill delete the Action
Change the Status to anything other than Completed or CancelledWill change the Status to In Process
Deleting the IssueWill delete the Action

Important notes:

  1. If your Issue Notes in HWIT contain any “line breaks”, newlines – where you pressed the Enter key and started another line – those notes will not sync to SafetyCulture.
  2. The above setup works if you have your SafetyCulture account with HWIT. If you have a private SafetyCulture account please contact HWIT so that it can be set up in your account.
