Set a step status

If your organization supports execution features, you may be required to set the status of work on a step process or operation. Step statuses track the progress, execution, and success or failure of tasks or task results.

Procedure

1. In the step for which you want to set a status, click Set Step Status .

2. In the Set Step Status pane, select a Step Status.

Note These are default Electronic Work Instructions values. Your organization may use different values than those listed.

Pending indicates that work on the step is awaiting a decision or action.

In Work indicates that work on the step is in progress.

Complete indicates that work on the step has finished successfully, including any required serial or lot numbers and other information.

Failed indicates that work on the step is incomplete due to a failure of some sort.

3. Drag the Step Progress slider to the appropriate percentage of work still pending, completed in progress, or completed prior to failure. If you selected Complete, the step progress locks at 100%.

4. (Optional) In the Comments text box, type comments on why the work is pending, your current progress, the step completion, or possible reasons it failed.

5. Click Save.
