How are users differentiated to limit their functionality
and access to information?
With a roles-based security and permissions system, each
user is mapped to a role based upon the types of tasks that
the user will perform inside of the system. These may be
changed at any time. Once the roles are established for users
i.e., staff, suppliers, inter-company sites, etc., then each
user is assigned to an individual role. A user may only be
assigned to one role. Each role defines a user’s access
to reports, menu items, types of quality functions that may
be performed, etc. [back

With
many users located worldwide and all requesting information,
do wait times to view reports, for example, become excessive
and cause timeouts and dropped database connections?
Lyons Information Systems, Inc.® has created a proprietary
process to hasten the return of data in reports and queries.
The process eliminates session timeouts while awaiting a
report or query. The process becomes even more valuable as
the amount of data grows large and the numbers of users increases.

Are
multiple acceptable quality levels (AQL) provided?
Yes. An unlimited number of AQL values may be used in the
quality audit process. In addition, new AQL values may be
mapped to user-defined sample size tables to automatically
determine pass/fail limits for an audited product. [back to top]
Do
our suppliers have access to their own quality data?
Yes. Each supplier who is allowed access to LQATS will see
only information that they have entered or changed. Specific
supplier reports may be designed for suppliers to use, or
they may use any other common system reports depending upon
how a system administrator has configured their permissions.
Still, only information specific to the supplier may be viewed
by the supplier. In addition, suppliers may download specific
files, i.e., product specs, previously assigned by an authorized
user or system administrator. Customers may wish to insure
that a supplier has the latest version of a particular specification
document, or may wish to communicate any other type of file
document with the supplier. [back to top]
Can we see our product spec documents within the system?
Yes. When a supplier or any other defined user logs into
LQATS, documents that have been flagged to be available to
the user will be show on the opening form. The user may view
and download the document(s) to their local workstation.
As users download files, a log is updated within LQATS that
may be displayed to appropriate system users. For auditors,
a product specification document may be shown during the
audit process. Measurement and tolerance metrics are recorded
in LQATS and compliance is automatically determined. A failed
audit my auto-generate an email to one or more individuals,
and is recorded in a disposition log of failed audits. [back
