How to Add and Complete a Plaster Issue Record
Note: A Plaster Issue Record is a Standalone Record and does not require a Programme to be set up first before it can be created.
The Contamination Control module in Ideagen Safe Food helps you proactively manage and prevent contamination hazards within food production environments.
The Plaster Issue Record has two workflow stages to be completed. Below are the steps that must be carried out in order to complete a Plaster Issue Record. Expand each step below for further explanation.
After creating your Plaster Issue Record, the Issue Details workflow stage will open. The Issue Details workflow stage must be completed and saved and submitted for the next workflow stage will become accessible. The other workflow stage will remain greyed out and inaccessible until the 'Save & Submit' button has been clicked for the workflow stage before it.
