Each transition is recorded in the workflow history together with the user, date, event and status change.

Controlled document lifecycle

Role-based review and approval

SOP & Document Control Pro provides dedicated permissions for each stage of the document workflow.

  • Reader – Read controlled documents and acknowledge assigned training.
  • Author – Create and modify Draft documents and submit them for review.
  • Reviewer – Review documents and approve the review or reject the document back to Draft.
  • Approver – Approve documents and make them Effective or Obsolete.
  • Training Manager – Assign training and monitor acknowledgements and reports.
  • Administrator – Configure the module and permissions.

This separation allows organizations to keep authoring, review and final approval responsibilities independent.

Role-based review and approval workflow

Training and Read & Understood acknowledgement

Training can be assigned only against an Effective controlled revision.

Each training assignment records:

  • Document and version
  • Assigned user
  • Assignment date
  • Due date
  • Training status
  • Read date

Available training states include:

  • Pending
  • Overdue
  • Completed
  • Superseded

The assigned user completes the training using the I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD action.

Notifications and e-mail alerts

The module includes internal notifications and optional e-mail notifications.

Notifications can be used for events such as:

  • Training assignment
  • Review assignment
  • Approval workflow events
  • Training due dates
  • Document review alerts

Training managers can also resend a training e-mail when required.

Notifications and e-mail alerts

Controlled Effective Version and QR access

The module clearly separates the currently controlled Effective revision from newer Draft revisions.

A document can therefore have a new revision under development while users continue to access the approved Effective revision.

Each controlled Effective revision can provide a QR code for direct access.

This is useful for laboratories, production areas, workstations and other locations where personnel need fast access to the current approved SOP.

Reports and audit trail

SOP & Document Control Pro includes reporting and traceability functions such as:

  • Individual Document Report
  • Master Document List
  • Training Status Report
  • Revision History
  • Workflow History
  • Training summary
  • PDF export

The workflow history records document actions and status transitions, providing a traceable audit trail.
