Corrective Actions Module Dashboard

When you log into your Safefood360° account and navigate to the Corrective Actions module, you will be presented with a smart module dashboard. This dashboard contains several smaller ‘Dashlets’ which focus on an aspect of the corrective action system. The data displayed includes corrective actions, supplier corrective actions and site corrective actions. Hovering over the heading of each dashlet you will see a tool tip that describes the purpose of the dashlet.

The dashboard will present two main elements.

1. Status: There are the two summary rating dashlets that cover corrective action Compliance and Risk. These present a summary of all the current data in the corrective action system to let the user know whether they are doing what they are supposed to do and secondly if there is any open corrective actions in the system which may be increasing risk.

2. Key Data and Trends: There are several dashlets that present the most important activity data relating to corrective actions. For example, you will see in a clear and informative way data on the number of corrective actions which are open and overdue. Corrective action status is also summarized in a format that allows you to drill down quickly to get actions closed.

1. Corrective Actions

The Corrective Actions dashlet displays the total number of open corrective actions (internal corrective actions, supplier corrective actions & site corrective actions), along with the total overdue and those which have a significant risk assigned to them. The dashlet also provides a breakdown of the actions by their source module.

2. Corrective Actions Compliance

The Compliance dashlet displays the current compliance rating of the corrective actions module as a percentage. Compliance is a measure of all the CA activities which should be currently completed. For example, if there are 100 actions due for completion and only 50 are completed, then you will be operating at a 50% compliance rating. 

If the module is below 33% compliance the current compliance rating bar will appear red. Between 33% and 66% the bar will appear orange and above 66% the bar will appear green.

3. Corrective Action Risk

The Risk dashlet displays the current risk rating of the corrective actions module as a percentage. Risk is a measure of all the actions which have been risk assessed as being significant and which should be currently completed. For example, if there are 100 significant risk actions due for completion and only 50 have been completed, then the site will be operating at a 50% risk rating.

The Current Risk Status bar will appear green when the risk is low, orange when the risk is medium and red when the risk is high.

4. Overdue Corrective Actions

The dashlet displays analysis on overdue corrective actions.

1. The total number of overdue actions will be displayed here.

2. Of the total number of actions overdue, the number of actions with a significant risk assigned to them is displayed here. 

3. The source of the overdue actions is displayed in the bar graph. Click on the source bar to access the source.

4. An analysis of the age of overdue actions is displayed on the bottom of the dashlet. The number of overdue actions which are 15+ days old is displayed in orange, 8-14 days old are displayed in blue and 1-7 days old are displayed in grey.

5. Corrective Action Alerts

The dashlet displays analysis on the active alerts currently in the corrective actions module, including the volume of alerts in the last 24 hours with special emphasis on the significant risk alerts. 

1. The volume of corrective action alerts which have been fired in the past 24 hours is displayed here.

2. Special emphasis is given to alerts with a significant risk. You can see how many of the alerts fired carry a significant risk.  

3. Time graphs display the hour at which the alerts were fired. Hovering over the bar shows you how many alerts were fired.

4. The most recently posted alerts are also indicated for easy linking to the relevant record.

6. Corrective Actions Volume

The Corrective Actions Volume dashlet displays analysis on the total number of corrective actions created in the past 12 months.

1. The total number of corrective actions created in the last 12 months.

2. Of all the corrective actions created in the past 12 months, the quantity of corrective actions identified as having a significant risk is displayed here.

3. The graph displays the number of corrective actions created in the past 12 months.

7. Corrective Actions by Source

This dashlet displays analysis on the total number of corrective actions generated by their source, in descending sequence, over the past 12 months. For example, corrective actions generated from the internal auditing system will be displayed as ‘Auditing’. You can click on the source bar to access the source of the corrective actions.

8. Recent Corrective Actions Activities

The dashlet displays analysis on the volume of activity in the corrective actions module based on the number of actions completed such as records and workflow stages.  An activity is a stamp on a stage of a record.

1. This is the total number of stamps created on records in the system over the last 7 days. 

2. This is the total number of stamps on corrective actions which have a significant risk created in the past 7 days. 

3. The graph displays the volume of corrective action stamps by week. Hover over the plotted points to see the exact number of actions. The chart will display data for the last 12 weeks.

4. The most recent corrective action records that have been stamped by users are listed here. You can click on the name of the record to access the record. Records that carry a significant risk are highlighted in orange.

9. Corrective Actions by Cause

The dashlet displays analysis of the root cause of all corrective actions for the previous 12 month period. Where no cause has been assigned to a corrective action, the data will be presented as ‘No Cause Recorded’. 

10. Open Corrective Actions by Stage

This dashlet displays analysis of the total number of open corrective actions by their stage in the corrective action workflow as a percentage. There are 5 stages to a corrective action workflow: Non-conformance/Issue Details, Investigation/Root Cause Analysis, Action Details, Review & Close Out.
