The property timeline
Expanding a property in the register reveals its own timeline — every job, sealed evidence record and follow-up ever raised at that address, newest first.
What it is
The timeline merges three sources into one feed: jobs (surveys and works orders), sealed survey/evidence records, and resident follow-ups — matched to the property by its id or, where set, its UPRN. Each row is badged with its current status (for example a job’s stage, or a sealed record’s chain sequence number) and links straight through to the full record. A sealed survey’s own note excerpts, and a follow-up’s own note, show inline so you can judge relevance before opening anything.
How to do it
- Open Properties, find the address, and select it to expand its row.
- Read the timeline below the property’s own details — most recent activity first.
- Select any row to open the full job, evidence record, or follow-up behind it.
- Use Load older if the property has more history than fits on one page.
How it integrates
The timeline is read-only — it never writes anything itself, it only reflects what raising a survey, raising a works order, sealing a record, or logging a follow-up have already written elsewhere. A follow-up row that has a linked job shows an open job link alongside it. Because matching falls back to UPRN when a direct property-id link isn’t set, a property record and older jobs raised against the same address before it had a stable id can still surface together here.
Common problems
- A job I know about doesn’t appear on this property’s timeline. Check the job’s own property link — a job raised against a plain address with no UPRN, before this property record existed, has nothing to match against and won’t appear here.
- “No jobs, evidence records or follow-ups at this property yet” shows for a property I know has history. The same UPRN mismatch is the usual cause — confirm both records carry the same UPRN, or link the job’s property directly.
- The timeline seems to be missing older entries. Select Load older at the bottom — the feed pages rather than loading a property’s entire history at once.
