# Handover

When a scaffold has been erected, it will need to undergo a handover. Handovers are an agreement between the foreman/builder and the requestor or craft representative that the scaffold is built to serve its intended purpose, is safe, and is ready for use.

The scaffold will be in the **Awaiting** **Handover** status. The user approving the handover can then pass or fail the handover by going to the **Scaffold** **Details** and selecting **Handover**.

When approving a Handover you can provide the signature from both the representative and the recipient.
