How can DBA help with ISO-9000 certification?

ISO-9000 certification and compliance requires extensive process documentation and labeling throughout the system.  DBA accommodates this with these features:      

Bill of Manufacturing Notes  

Within the bill of manufacturing you can enter unlimited freeform notes against the BOM parent, routing sequences, tasks within routing sequences, and components.  All these notes flow through to jobs for optional printing on the job traveler.

Job Traveler Layouts  

Customized layouts for various sets of print options can be created for job traveler printing.  This enables specialized travelers to be created for different purposes, including specialized travelers for ISO compliance.  

Document and Web Linking to Jobs

Against any item you have the ability to attach documents, files, or web links that can be designated for automatic linking to jobs.  Document and web link attachments can be used for any number of purposes, including the following:

Specification Sheets

Documents Directory

The Documents Directory, located on the Notes menu, provides a means for organizing the storage and access of general documents that are not linked to specific items, customers, or suppliers.  Such documents can include policy manuals, safety sheets, entry forms, etc.  For security purposes, users are assigned to Document Groups and then each document is assigned a list of the groups that are given access permission.

Customizable Labels

Custom layouts can be created with an abundance of optional content for the following labels.  

Stock Item Label

Job Receipt Label

PO Receipt Label

Serial Number Tracking  

M items can be flagged for serial number tracking, in which case serial numbers are assigned when finished items are received to inventory in the Job Receipts screen.  Serial number tracking provides an audit trail that ties finished items back to specific jobs and revisions.
