# Approved vs Live .PDFs

Approved vs Live .PDFs

The approved .PDF is a snapshot in time- the condition of the property on the day in which it was assessed.

A live .PDF reflects the mitigating actions taken following the risk assessment once they have been completed in the task management portal.

The live .PDF is particularly useful should the FRS audit the building as an easy way to provide evidence of work being done to reduce the risk in a building.
