1. Expand the Case Sharing section on the Public Access panel.
2. Turn on Share Cases with People and Contractors in Public Access to allow users and contractors to view any cases they are attached to. By default, Public Access users cannot see cases created in Respond.

IMPORTANT: Use caution when enabling this preference because it allows data to be viewed site wide by both users and contractors. For example, if an organization has a people role where an offender is listed for code enforcement cases and the offender logs in to Public Access, that individual is able to see any cases filed against them. Likewise, when a contractor creates a Public Access account, they are able to see all cases where they are listed as the contractors, including cases created before they created their account.

1. Expand the Inspection Scheduling section on the Public Access panel.
2. Use the Inspection Scheduling Lead Time drop-down list to select the earliest time, from the initial request, that users can schedule an inspection. For example, if you select 4, the earliest time a user is able to schedule an inspection is 4 hours from the time they request the inspection.
3. Use the Inspection Scheduling Cancel Time drop-down list to set the latest time an inspection can be canceled. For example, if you select 4, users are able to cancel an inspection until 4 hours before the appointed time. After that, the inspection cannot be canceled.

NOTE: Be aware that the Public Access site has a timeout setting that can affect scheduling or canceling an inspection. For example, if the timeout setting is 20 minutes and the Inspection Scheduling Lead Time is 4 hours, a user could log in to the site 4 hours and 5 minutes before the inspection is scheduled and wait 15 minutes to reschedule or cancel the inspection. That allows the user to reschedule or cancel inside the lead time.

4. Enter the maximum number of inspections that can be scheduled on a particular day in the day fields under Maximum Inspections Per Day. If nothing is entered, there is no limit to the number of inspections that can be scheduled that day. Public Access prevents further scheduling for a specific day once it reaches the maximum number of inspections.
5. Click Add Record and use the Inspection Type drop-down list and Max count field to limit the daily maximum for a particular type of inspection. Click Add.
6. In the Final Daily Scheduling Time section, define daily cutoff hours and subsequent availability. Setting a Friday After time of 4:00 PM with a Monday Next Available Day disables scheduling for the remainder of the weekend and resumes availability on Monday morning.
