I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'quick inspection' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'as soon as it's finished' is the wordplay.
'as soon as' becomes 'once' (once can mean immediately after).
'it's finished' becomes 'over' (over can mean finished or ended).
'once'+'over'='ONCEOVER'
