How to edit, clone, or delete a checklist ​

Change a checklist's items or schedule, copy one to build a similar routine, find a checklist quickly, or remove one you no longer use. This is for owners and store managers maintaining a store's checklists.

Before you start ​

  • Where: Store-level (web)
  • Permission: Manage Checklists
  • Available by default to: Owners and Store Managers. (On custom roles, this needs the permission named above.)
  • You must have: At least one checklist already created for the store.

Find a checklist ​

  1. Open Checklists, then select Setup to open the setup list. The stats row shows Active, Inactive, and Total counts.
  2. In the Search checklists field, type part of a title or description to narrow the list.
  3. Optional: Use the Status filter to show only Active or Inactive checklists.

Edit a checklist ​

  1. On the checklist's card, select Edit. The edit form opens with the current title, schedule, items, and assignment.
  2. Change any field — title, frequency, due time, items, or role and position assignment — using the same builder as when creating.
  3. Select Save. Your changes apply to every time the checklist comes due from now on.

Clone a checklist ​

  • On the checklist's card, select Clone. A duplicate is created and the list refreshes so you can edit the copy.

Delete a checklist ​

  1. On the checklist's card, select the delete (trash) icon. A confirmation dialog opens.
  2. Select Delete to confirm. The checklist is removed from the setup list.

WARNING

Deleting a checklist can't be undone. If you only want to stop it from running, edit it and set it inactive instead so its past submissions stay available in Reports.

Expected result ​

Your edits show on the checklist's card, a cloned copy appears in the list ready to rename, or the deleted checklist no longer appears in the setup list.

Troubleshooting ​

  • If you don't see Edit, Clone, or Delete on a card: Your role doesn't include the Manage Checklists permission — ask an owner or manager. Without it the setup list is read-only.
  • If a search returns nothing: Clear the Status filter — an active-only or inactive-only filter may be hiding the match. Then check your spelling.
