Safety Notices

License: Certain actions, such as adding safety notice records, require a license as well as security permission. Contact your project administrator if you are unable to perform some actions using the mobile app.

Required fields:

• If auto-numbering is on, numbers are assigned to safety notice records with non-draft statuses when they're synced to the database.
• Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*) and are enforced for non-draft records. Additionally, required fields in workflow templates are highlighted red if left incomplete upon submission.

Workflows:

• Draft safety notice records are visible to the user who created them and the Portfolio Administrator.
• Safety notice records can't be changed back to the Draft status.
• Safety notice records with a locked status can't be edited or deleted.
• Status workflows: In status workflows, when an assignment or courtesy copy is added to a draft safety notice record, the status changes automatically to the next workflow status. This is set at the record settings level by your administrator.
• Template workflows: Status names and workflow steps are configured by your administrator. Generally, the status changes when the person responsible for the next action completes their task, such as:
  • A creator publishes a draft
  • When a safety notice is forwarded for review
  • When a reviewer selects a response and submits the step
