Add Corrective Action Codes

Corrective Action Codes allow the inspector to associate a deficiency to a category, such as a severity level. This allows you to track how often that type of deficiency is occurring. 

The Corrective Action Codes are selected in an Open or Fixed Deficiency on the Inspection Entry screen.
