PPAP Deliverables: Save/Publish

Each PPAP Deliverable is independently saved and published.  This action is performed by clicking the "Save", "Publish", and "Save + Exit" buttons.  Only Publish is available when not in edit mode.

Edit Mode Buttons

Save only saves data in the table.

Publish saves and publishes the table.

Save + Exit saves the table and removes the user from edit mode.

Save and Publish Modal Details

Comments

Comments is an open text field.  This is captured at the save and/or publish event on the history page and the version history page for that deliverable.

Header Data

The header data section contains high level information related to that specific deliverable and version.  Relevant data from the info tab is pulled in such as Part Revision and Drawing Number.

All fields except the Purchase/Work Order Number, Jurisdiction, Classification, and Other Restrictions are defined here: PPAP Deliverables: Info Tab.

Purchase/Work Order Number: PO or work order # as defined by a customer or internal requisition if necessary to capture here.

Jurisdiction: The section of export regulations that govern the part/data.  Your Net-Inspect company admin or customer admin may define what is available in this field.

Classification: The process of identifying which specific segment of the relevant regulations applies to the part/data.  Your Net-Inspect company admin or customer admin may define what is available in this field.

Publish a new version of this deliverable

Both the save and publish modals are interchangeable.  When saving, if the desire is to also publish then toggling this option will change the modal to a Save+Publish modal.  The same is true if the desire is to only save and not also publish the deliverable.  The button options at the bottom of the modal and the title of the modal will modify to signal the change.

Note, this option will be disabled if the user does not have a publish role or is not listed as required to publish the specific deliverable but others are.  See the section below on Key Contacts and Core Team Members to learn more.

Key Contacts and Core Team Members

This table lists the users associated with the PPAPD record and indicates which specific deliverable their name is listed.  The table listed on the save/publish modal is the same as the list found on the info tab (in most cases) meaning it can be modified from the info tab or the modal.  

Names, titles, and emails can be hand-typed or Net-Inspect users can be selected from the drop down.

User and their deliverable associations can be modified by clicking the edit "Pencil" icon.  Ensure you save your changes before saving, publishing, or cancelling for the changes to take effect.

If a user is aligned with a deliverable and marked as "Publish Sign. Reqd." then that user must sign for the deliverable to be published.  If multiple users are marked then all users must sign for the deliverable to publish and each signature will be shown inline as they are populated.  If a user is no longer required to sign, simply remove the checkmark or remove the user.  Note: only Net-Inspect users can be marked to publish a deliverable.  Names that are entered without an account can only be entered for informational purposes.
