Edit a Nonconformance from Any State
Nonconformance objects can be edited from any state in the workflow.
• Only users in the quality system manager role can perform this function. Users in other roles can view the structure, but they are not able to edit items.
• Use this feature to make minor changes such as correcting misspelled items or correcting information that was entered in the wrong field.
1. Click the Structure tab of a nonconformance object.
2. In the Nonconformance Object Structure tree, right-click an object and select an action from the menu.
◦ Right-click Affected Objects and select Enter Nonconformance details.
◦ Right-click Other Items and select Enter Nonconformance details.
◦ Right-click Related Personnel and Locations and select Enter Nonconformance details.
◦ Right-click Request and select Enter Nonconformance details.
◦ Right-click Review and select Enter Review details.

If you edited the item to create a new request, such as a new CAPA, the system does not create the request, because it cannot move the item to the next state. If a nonconformance has already been dispositioned and you add new parts, the parts will not be dispositioned. If you need to add requests or parts, you must create a completely new nonconformance request.
