Compliance Settings – Object Configuration Settings

This settings page will let you configure fields in various register types, for its standard and custom objects used in a workflow. Custom fields can be created for standard objects if required. Additionally, define if objects require a sign-off or approval, its visibility, display in My Quick Updates, and more. Furthermore, within an object you can define a field’s label, visibility, sequence, and mandatory state.

Figure 1.1

There are seven standard objects within the system:

  • Compliance Object – This object will enable configuring the field available within Compliance details page which the user will see when they enter a new compliance record. This will contain the preliminary information about the compliance.

  • Action Object – This object will enable configuring the fields available in the action page. Action page is where the user will enter information about action that is linked to a compliance.

  • Review Object – This object will enable configuring the fields available within review page, Review page is where the user will enter data on reviews of the compliance.

  • Document Object – This object will enable configuring the documents page. This page will allow users to upload any documents or add any URL to the compliance. You will not be able to configure any fields within this page.

  • Linkages Object – This object will enable configuring the linkages page. This page will allow users to link an incident to a risk, project or a hazard. You will not be able to configure any fields within this page.

  • Risk Analysis Object – This object will enable configuring the fields available within Risk Analysis page.

  • Root Cause Analysis Object – This object will enable configuring the fields available within Root Cause Analysis Object page.

Click on the object name to go into the respective configuration page. All standard objects will be listed here by default. Any new custom objects can be created from here as well.

To create a new Object, follow the steps below:

  • STEP 1: Navigate to Framework > Compliance Settings > Object Configurations.

  • STEP 2: Click on the New button.

  • STEP 3: Enter all relevant information and configure the fields. More information on configurations are given below.

  • STEP 4: Click on the Save button to save details.

Figure 1.2

Changing the description will change the display text of the corresponding page.

  • Standard Object – The objects that are standard will have the standard object tick box checked. This cannot be edited by the Client administrator.

  • Enable Sign Off – This field will enable the sign off functionality for the corresponding object. Signoff functionality will not be available for linkages, actions and document objects.

  • Visible – This field can use to determine if the object appears for the end users in the compliance workflow or not. For the object to appear, the visibility should be turned on.

  • Enable Submit – This is used to determine whether the submit option for the record should be placed on the object or not. The same applies to the Enable Re-Submit button as well.

  • Show in My Quick Update – This will determine if the contents of the object are to be shown in the My Quick Update area. This is only applicable to Compliance, Policy, Authority Documents, Actions and Review objects only. 

  • Enable Approval – This can be ticked if you require an approval in the workflow for an object, then enable this tick box for only ONE object. This will then configure this feature for all objects in that workflow.

Note: When configuring the Enable Approval setting, it should be set for ONLY ONE object in a workflow (eg: close object, incident object). If not, this setting would not function as expected.

However, for an Action Object, the enable approval configuration can be set separately, in addition to other workflows. In a future release, Camms will look into making this process more user-friendly.

  • Show Action Progress Updates – This can be ticked if you wish to periodically review recurring and non-recurring compliance actions with progress update information. This will enable a two tab view within the action object: Action Details, Action Progress Update. (See section Periodic Reviews for Compliance Actions under Action in Compliance Management.)

Note: Enable Investigation Submission and Enable Approvals options are non-functional at the moment. 

The grid at the bottom of the page will allow the administrator to configure fields within the object. Following columns will be available.

    This will auto-populate a copy of the existing standard incident details object with all its fields.

  • STEP 2: Define the fields with their properties in the field configuration area.
