The status bar visually represents the progress of the record within the workflow. Each status is displayed sequentially, providing a clear indication of its current position and possible transitions.
Current Status: Highlighted in blue, this represents where the record currently stands.
Selectable Status: Outlined in light colors, these indicate options that can be selected to move the record forward.
Non-Selectable Status: Outlined in dark colors, these cannot be selected.
Each status displays its name and the date when the record entered that stage. Hovering over the status name will reveal how long the record has been in that status.
To update the status, click on the corresponding number above the desired status and confirm the action. The system will handle status updates as follows:
When the FMEA moves to Under Review, the system will notify the approvers.
Once Approved, an email notification is sent to the record owner and the approvers.
If the FMEA is Closed, the system will notify the owner and approver s via email.
If the FMEA is Canceled, the system will notify the owner and approvers via email.
The system supports six status options:
At this stage, all required information will be entered. This is the default status for new records and the only point where the record can be modified.
Key Details
The delete icon is active, allowing removal if necessary.
The file repository icon is enabled, allowing users to upload, view, and manage files.
Status Progression
The record can transition from Open to either Under Review or Canceled, but the status cannot be changed until the record is saved.
To move forward to Under Review, the risk assessment selected must be in closed status.
During this phase, the FMEA undergoes review and approval by designated approvers. They are responsible for verifying the accuracy of the information and must provide their approval or rejection through their signature.

The file repository remains accessible, allowing users to view, download, and perform controlled downloads of uploaded files. However, new uploads, edits, or deletions are not permitted.
Status Progression
The record can transition to Approved or revert to Open.
To move forward to Approved, all approvers must complete their signatures.
If any approver rejects the record or the status is changed back to Open, all existing signatures will be reset when it returns to Under Review.
Notes: A record requires at least (2) two approvers to be approved. If there are more than two, all approvers must sign before the status can change from Under Review to Approved. For more details on approvers, refer to the Approval Management section.
Once a FMEA has been reviewed and officially approved, it cannot return to a previous stage. At this point, all recorded information is considered final and can no longer be modified.
