When to use it
When to use it, and when not to
This register is one step in a larger programme. Using it for work that belongs to a neighbouring template produces records that are hard to report on later.
Use it for
- The event or activity this register covers has occurred, or is about to
- A new record is needed; each one gets its own ID in the form GBP-2026-000
- You are running the HACCP and Food Safety programme and this is one of its steps
- A linked record needs this one to exist: links site; feeds breakage record
Not for
- HACCP Plan, which the hazard analysis and critical control point plan for a product or process.
- HACCP Verification Record, which confirms the HACCP plan is being followed and still works.
- CCP Monitoring Log, which records readings at a critical control point, such as cook temperature, chill time or metal detection.
- Anything outside KnowQuality, which belongs in the workspace that owns that process
