Add a Country

All categories, including Countries, are used to set up a predefined list of elements that can then be applied throughout the Safefood360° modules without having to type these categories twice, or to remove the fear of an operator not knowing the correct category that should be selected. Countries can be selected in the Scope of Approval section of the Approval workflow of a Full Assessment Record in the Supply Chain Management module. You can enter any country as required.

1. Name: Enter the name of the required Country. [Mandatory]

2. Folder: Place your Country into a folder to keep your data organised. If you do not have many different Countries to add, you can add them to the grey default system folder called 'Country'. To add a new folder or sub-folder, click 'New Folder' and then name it. The changes will be automatically saved when you click outside of the box.

3. Description: Add a Description of the Country to help other system users to better understand when this Country is applicable and should be selected.
