Control your production-related QM processes such as Deviation Control with our digital workflows. Our integrated solutions manage your previously paper-bound process from capture to completion completely digitally. The workflow system automatically forwards the digital form to the next instance; if deadlines are exceeded, the reminder and escalation management takes effect. Of course, an absence management is also included for the task routing.
How do you benefit from the Deviation Control software solution?
Data integrity
Deviation reports are no longer lost because they are stored electronically from the beginning. You also protect your data from unwanted actions of unauthorized users and from destructive forces.
Process safety
The workflow system ensures that the deviation is forwarded to the person in charge after each step. The escalation system takes effect in case of missed deadlines.
Increased data security
Protect your data from unwanted interference by unauthorized users and from destructive forces.
Individual configuration
Let the modules be configured according to your wishes and preferences to facilitate the onboarding training for your colleagues.
Constant availability
Access your data at any time. It does not matter where you are.
Traceability
Deviation reports can be linked to other modules such as Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) and Change Management (CC). Thus a traceable chain of interrelated individual processes is created
More efficient process runtimes
Our customers achieve significantly lower process runtimes when using the digital solution for deviation management.
Transparency
Every authorized employee sees the current status of all deviation reports — even if he or she is not involved in the process.
Central information platform
Use the d.3ecm system as your central information platform on which you can retrieve all your data at short notice.
Reports
Create reports and statistics about their deviations, e.g. to support your PQR.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about the Deviation Control
Are the contents of all process steps visible?
When editing a process step, only this step can be edited, but the other process steps are visible.
Can the predefined designations be changed?
In the workflow administration, you can configure the names of the process steps, field names and datasets.
Can the predefined steps be customized?
The Deviation Control process flow has been designed in accordance with the GxP regulations and created in consultation with QM experts. With referehnce to the validation documentation, the process steps are therefore mandatory. However, each process step contains a ‘Custom Panel’, which can be used to display further information or initiate actions.
Can tasks be delegated?
In all process steps that follow the initiation, you can forward the process step to another person. The authorization of the recipient is checked during selection.
Can I analyze the Deviation Controls?
The essential data of a Deviation Control is transferred to the attributes of the data set. This allows you to search and create an analysis of the created Deviation Controls. The analyses can be exported as PDF, EXCEL or WORD documents.
Are there time limits for the processing of the process steps?
In the administration, time specifications can be entered for each process step. Reminder messages are sent before the process steps are due. The reminder message is sent to the processor of the task, the coordinator and the configured group that is to be informed about the reminder (for example, QA). A reminder is sent with the configured subject.
Can a process be cancelled?
It can be configured so that the process can be cancelled at any process step. For the cancellation, it is required to indicate a reason in a mandatory field. Cancelling is only allowd for the coordinator of the process.
Are there templates for measures in a Deviation Control?
Having entered a measure, you can save it as a template in the measure table. The templates are available for insertion in a Deviation Control. The due date for the measure is calculated based on the duration entered in the template.
Can process steps be subsequently corrected?
In principle, a process step is completed with an electronic signature and can no longer be corrected. With the function ‘Step back’ the process can be returned to a previous process step. The user who has completed this step receives it again for editing and the process continues from this step. Any return to a previous step is recorded in the audit trail.
Can attachments be stored with a Deviation Control?
If additional files are required for a process, attachments can be uploaded in all process steps and linked to the current process. The attachments are stored under a corresponding document type in the DMS and can be viewed in Deviation Control under ‘Attachments’ for all process participants. You can configure which file types can be saved as attachments and how large the files can be.
