Issue Types
Fabasoft Approve now offers the option of assigning your own “Issue Types” to an issue, which allow customer-specific configurable values.
Issue types can be created in the configuration under “Details” with the following properties:
- Issue Source:
This freely configurable field specifies where the issue originated, for example due to a problem at the supplier or an internal issue.
- Severity:
This field specifies the severity of an issue within the 8D process (e.g. 2D, 6D or 8D).
Issue types can be assigned to a specific issue. In this case, the values stored in the issue type for issue source and severity are automatically adopted. If no values are defined for these fields in the issue type, they must be entered manually in the issue.
Solution Area: Correspondence Management
The following new feature awaits you in the correspondence management solution area.
Users
As an end user you can expect the following new feature.
Creating Action Items and Open Points when reviewing a document
In Fabasoft Approve, it is now possible to mark texts of document entries using a PDF preview and to create Action Items and Open Points from them. All changes made to the text are documented in a traceable manner, which is particularly helpful for long tender or specification documents.
The “Check” command opens the document properties for checking a document. If the document contains document items, their PDF previews are displayed in a split view.
Clicking on “Switch Mode” activates the option to highlight text in the PDF preview. Action Items or Open Points can then be created by right-clicking on a selected text passage. A screenshot of the selection is also generated and attached to the Action Item or Open Point.
