Making a Form Template Available for CCP Templates

Critical Control Point (CCP) templates are constructed from standard form templates. 


A form template can be setup for use with a CCP Template by specifying the form templates CCP Settings. There are 3 options available for the CCP Type:

  1. CCP's Not Used
    • The form template will not be used to collect CCP data and will not be used in a CCP Template. 
  2. CCP's on Base Form
    • The form can be used in a CCP template, and the CCP data will exit on the main/base form. i.e. CCP will not be in a table.
  3. CCP's on Fixed Row Table 
    • The form can be used in a CCP template, and the CCP data will exist in a fixed row table on the form. 
    • There may only be one table in the form, and this table must be a fixed row table.



Setting the CCP Key on Form Template

Since the CCP Template pulls data from multiple forms, forms containing CCP data must have a key to link them together.

The key may either be a date or a string field. There must be only one field set as a key per form.



All forms that are linked in a CCP Template will be matched on the value entered in the key field to pull the form data together.



Flagging a field as a CCP, and Setting a Rule

One or more fields may be flagged as a CCP on a form. Fields must be of numeric value to be a CCP. 

Once flagged as a CCP you can enter a rule to validate whether the value entered is within tolerance or spec. The results of these rules will be displayed on the CCP Form when it is generated.



A CCP Rule can be:

  • Between 2 values: Valid if between values.
  • Greater than a value: Valid if greater than value.
  • Less than a value: Valid if less than value.
