The following changes have been made to the Authenticate platform


Global Navigation

We have updated the side navigation to be consistent for all users (with feature dependent links).


There should be no difference seen in the available functionality, just the order / display of the menu has been updated.



Specification Photo Standards > Non-Image Files



Users can now add 'non-image' files for product quality 'photo standards. This allows files to be added using two separate file pickers- image and non-image.


Files added using the 'image' file picker will display as a thumbnail on the specification. Non-image files are displayed as a download link.



Non Conformance Preventative Actions

When responding to site non-conformance's, users can now add 'preventative actions' .

These are displayed alongside the existing 'corrective actions' available for non-conformances to mirror the areas available when responding to an 'incident'.


Assessment Corrective Actions Scores



When reviewing a site assessment and viewing the 'Corrective Actions' tab, users can now see an 'Action Score' for the assessment.


The Action Score is based on the number of questions answered, the status of the corrective actions and if the question is critical (set when creating a template).


Scores are shown against each action to allow management and the 'Section Scores' tab provides a visual display of the score section & grouped sections if tags are applied.


Product Quality Recordings Listings

A listings page has been created for the new product records feature. 


This allows users to quickly view and search existing records by product name / reference / supplier / status and also allow new records to be added without the need to navigate to the individual supply chain pages.



Please contact your Authenticate client manager if you are interesting in learning more or accessing the product quality records feature
