# Filtering Assessments

Filtering Assessments

*QC & Approved is the area of RiskBase used to manage the quality control lifecycle of assessments.*

*It supports the process of proofreading, status tracking, and formal approval of submitted assessments awaiting validation.*

*Only users with QC access enabled can use this functionality.*

**Accessing QC & Approved:**

1. Sign-In to the RiskBase application: app.riskbase.uk
2. Select **QC and Approved** (bottom of the screen).
3. If this tab is not visible, QC access has not been enabled - contact a user with administrator access to have this feature turned on.

**Understanding Assessment Visibility:**

Users can only see assessments performed by an organisation if QC access is enabled, even if otherwise associated with that organisation.

**Viewing Assessments Awaiting QC:**

1. Open the **QC and Approved** tab.
2. Select **All Statuses**.
3. Choose **Submitted**.
4. If changes need to be made, select an assessment and click **Unsubmit** to move it back to In Progress.

**Filtering and Searching Assessments:**

Assessments can either be found manually searched for using the search bar or using filters.

Next to the search bar, there are four drop down filters:

**All Statuses:** filter by assessment status (In Progress, Submitted, Approved).

**All Organisations:** filter by organisation.

**All Types:** filter by assessment type (e.g., Fire Risk Assessment).

**All Groups:** filter by property group that the assessment sits under.

Alternatively, use the Assessments Filter tool, found on the right hand side:

Option to filter by flags by clicking **Flagged** or **Not Flagged**.

Option to filter by Assessed or Approved Date (oldest or newest first) by clicking **Order By**.
