Use report verifications

Some control steps may require report verification with one or more signatures. Report verification policies are configured and associated with phases in the
FactoryTalk Batch
Equipment Editor by the control engineer. When
eProcedure
encounters a phase that has an associated verification policy, the report Verification Signature instructions are displayed in the Instructions view, similar to the one shown here:
ePro_report_verification_dual_eSig
This example shows the execution of a dual signature for an
eProcedure
report
verification before either signoff is completed. The execution of a signature for an
eProcedure
step
verification looks very similar. The red
(1)
visually ties the signature to the report to which it corresponds.
TIP: Step Verification signature requests and Reactivate Step signature requests will display in the Instructions view; all others display in the Signature List view and the appropriate
Signature
dialog box opens in the Instructions view.
Report Verifications contain the following fields:
  • The reason (meaning) for the required signature, i.e. "Report Limit Violated".
  • The report name
  • Limit type
  • Limit value
  • Value entered
  • Signature 1 area, which contains the signature meaning (confirmed over limit, etc.), user name, password, comment, plus
    OK
    and
    Cancel
    buttons
  • Signature 2 area, if required (contains the same information as the Signature 1 area)
