When you use AssurX’s CATSWeb Enterprise Quality and Compliance Management system, you enter records and tasks such as:
- Corrective Actions
- Nonconformance Reports
- Defects
- Change Requests
- Audits and Findings
- Complaints
- Training Tasks
- and more
With each of these processes there is usually an associated ‘due date’ or ‘goal date’ and in the system your are automatically notified via email upon assignment and sent reminder emails when these dates are approaching. There is even auto escalation for items that are past due with notifications to management and even auto reassignments for critical items.
All of this functionality is aimed at improving
- responsiveness
- increasing customer satisfaction
- reducing cycle times and
- ensuring the tasks get completed on time — meaning in the end – costs are reduced
To enhance this BUILT-IN functionality AssurX has added the Calendar Display part. The Calendar Display Part allows you view your quality and compliance records and tasks in a convenient calendar format. Each calendar can be set up to filter data on the fly. For example you can display your personal tasks or your department tasks. It comes with several viewing formats such as multi-month and calendars can be added to a users home page.

Calendar Display Part in CATSWeb
Calendars can link to any data source such as internal system data like queries and filters. And like all system reports and graphs in CATSWeb, the source data can even be external such as from ERP and HR systems or Oracle and Microsoft databases. The Calendar display part also allows you to manage and display the corporate workdays and holidays.
It’s easy to set up a calendar.
- From the CATSWeb Manager – add the Calendar Display part and fill out the properties
- Select the data source whether it be from a query or even an external data set
- Add the Calendar to a user Dashboard – and you’re all set
So in combination with automatic email notifications, reminders and escalation, the Calendar Display Part is an easy way to give employees visibility to important upcoming events and help your company: improve responsiveness, increase customer satisfaction, reduce cycle times and ensuring the tasks get completed on time.
