Add an Attribute Test

Presentation title - PowerPoint

Tests are building blocks to monitoring & receiving programmes. Attribute tests are non-numerical. In a monitoring/receiving record, they are simply drop-downs and depending on what you select from the drop-down the test may flag green as a pass, orange as a pass-warning, or red as a fail. For example, the name of an attribute could be 'Is there Evidence of Pest Activity?'  and the drop-down options could be Yes (Fail) and No (Pass).

Enter Attribute Test Details
  1. Enter the name of the test.
  2. You can save your tests in folders to keep them tidy and organised, and to be able to find the right tests easier later on when you are configuring your Monitoring and Receiving programmes.
  3. Provide a brief description of the test (The description will appear in the record when you hover over the test name).
  4. If a procedure is required you can select the document here (In the record the name of the test will appear blue meaning there is a document to view).
  5. Unlike the variable test, the attribute test allows you to define your own specification with complete flexibility. Enter the Attribute name, select the Limit Type and define an Event Notice (optional). You can enter as many attributes as required.
  6. If you want the system to do to SPC analysis on the data completed in records for this test you tick the box.
