  • Tests and Result Column - Enter the result for each test and the overall result will be calculated automatically. If you do not enter a result for a test then that test will be recorded as not conducted. The overall result will always be the worst outcome of all tests for the delivery. So for example, if you have 6 tests for the delivery and 5 of them pass with only one fail - then the overall result for the delivery will be a fail. Note - where a procedure document was assigned to a test in the tests module, you can access this document by clicking the column heading.
  • Non-Test Data fields and Completed By - If any non-test data is required (as defined by the program) then you can enter it next. Finally, you will need to select the person completing the delivery tests.
