What is the difference between selecting a contractor and manually adding a contractor in the Permit to Work (PTW), in OHS Online?

A good question you ask there! There is one fundamental difference between selecting a contractor and manually adding a contractor in the PTW and this is the speed with which the PTW is completed.

When a contractor is selected, the PTW will pull contractor information (from the selected contractor's profile) throughout the PTW, at points where that information would be relevant, saving time having to add this information. When a contractor is added manually, all the information you add to the PTW will have to be added manually, meaning the PTW will take longer to complete.
