OSHA 300 and 300A Mass Creation

You can run a scheduled process that generates all OSHA 300 and OSHA 300A reports at once for all client workspaces where an OSHA Contact is identified on the Client Team page. The generated reports are added as PDF attachments to the OSHA Forms dataform of each workspace.

Processing OSHA Reports

Follow the steps below to process OSHA reports:

Step 1: Set the OSHA Contact on Each Workspace Requiring OSHA Reports

The Generate OSHA Forms scheduled process creates OSHA reports only when a workspace is in "Client" status and a value is present in the OSHA Contact field. Complete the one-time step of adding the OSHA Contact to all workspaces requiring OSHA reports. Afterward, add the OSHA Contact to newly added workspaces requiring OSHA reports.

  1. On the workspace landing page, click (Open) on the Client Team widget.

    2. The Client Team page displays.

  2. Select the OSHA Contact and click Save.

Step 2: Add the OSHA Process Record to the Admin Workspace

Create an OSHA Process record yearly when it is time to generate OSHA forms. The Generate OSHA Forms scheduled process reads the OSHA Year and processing Status from the OSHA Process record and creates the reports for the specified year. Set the initial Status to "Queued" when you are ready for the reports to run. This informs the system that OSHA reports are ready to be created. Once the reports have been successfully created, the Status changes to "Completed".

To regenerate OSHA reports, open the OSHA Process record for the desired year, reset the Status to "Queued" and run the Generate OSHA Forms scheduled process again.

Any errors encountered during report generation are recorded in the Error Log field of the OSHA Process record.

  1. On the modules bar, select Admin Workspace.
    The Admin Workspace tiles display.
  2. In the dataforms section, search for "OSHA" and open the OSHA Process dataform.

    3. The OSHA Process page displays.

  3. Click Add to add a new OSHA Process record.
  4. Select a Status of "Queued", select the OSHA Year, and click Save.

    5. Select a status of "New" if you want to set up OSHA Process records for future years in advance. Just remember to set the status to "Queued" when you are ready to generate the reports.

Step 3: Run the Scheduled Process

You can set up the Generate OSHA Forms scheduled process to run automatically once per year. Go to System Admin > Advanced > Scheduled Process to set up the process as shown in the example below:

Remember to edit the OSHA Process record and set the status to "Queued" before regenerating the reports.

If the process runs successfully, the Status on the OSHA Process record changes to "Completed" and the OSHA reports are added as PDF attachments to the OSHA Forms dataform of each client workspace that had an OSHA Contact entered.

Any errors that prevented the report from generating for specific workspaces will be listed in the OSHA Process record Error Log.

The Status field of the OSHA Process record still displays "Completed" even if the reports failed to generate for several workspaces. The Status field only displays "Failed" if the entire process failed.

Step 4: Access the OSHA Reports from each Workspace

Once reports have been generated, access them from each client workspace by opening the OSHA Forms dataform.
