How is as found” and as left measurement data handled?
The system will track the readings that are entered into the system either through the Reading Master or an external sheet such as an Excel Spreadsheet. The As Found, the Actual or As Left and the Deviation values can be entered In addition there is a As Found field and Left As field which contains Functional, Damage, In Tolerance, Out of Tolerance, In operable or As Is.
OpenMETRIC provides several ways to capture and store measurement data. OpenMETRIC provides a Datasheet subsystem which permits datasheets to be predefined for the entry of measurement data. During Calibration, the Readings button will cause a copy of the applicable datasheet to be copied into a holding area. Data can be entered into the datasheet. When the calibration is completed and the job is closed, these readings are transferred to the permanent historical record for the calibration. OpenMETRIC also provides a flexible user-definable grid into which OOT data can be entered (In actuality, all data could be entered into an OOT grid, but this could be confusing and misleading.) Finally, data collected and stored in a file (e.g., via MetCal) can be attached to the calibration for permanent archive and management.
