INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
Tracking the Audit Process
Audit Manager software, now available as part of this company's TrackWise product suite, allows users to create and execute report templates to facilitate audit data collection and sharing, and to make it easier to generate reports and documentation. It is also designed to be used locally, allowing data to be shared without connecting to a centralized database, a capability that can save considerable time. The new Audit Manager software has been designed to tie into full workflow management, searching and reporting functions.
One of the program's key features is a template that allows audit teams to create questionnaires and checklists and link them to workflow records. Using this feature, a pharmaceutical manufacturing audit team can maintain a master index of sections and subsections. Team leaders can assign sections of the audit questionnaire to specific team members for them to complete and export locally. Auditors can then export questions, data and scores into a local Excel file, and team leaders can take them into a centralized database once the audit has been completed.

Barcoding Extends ERP to the Warehouse, Plant Floor
QuikTrac 5.1 allows users of this manufacturer's I Series to extend ERP/MRP applications out to their warehouse or shop floor without changing their existing host code or interfacing into their system's database, the company says. QuikTrac 5.1 allows AS 400 users to take their existing I Series applications and map them down to a wireless fixed or portable data collection device. This functionality enables users to interact with their ERP/MRP software from a remote location in real-time, without costly and long-term modifications to the host. QuikTrac 5.1's new Off Line Data Collection module allows users to continue to collect and store data while the connection or host is down.

Sanitary Peristaltic Pumps Offer Accurate Metering
The 520 Series line of peristaltic pumps is designed to provide highly accurate metering and dosing performance and an inherently sanitary design. The new design focuses on the pump head, which allows a higher range of flowrates with a wider turndown ratio, its manufacturer says, while the large swept volume of the newly designed pump head allows for a greater volumetric displacement per revolution, resulting in longer tube life and gentle handling of shear-sensitive fluids.
Featuring a user-friendly interface, the pumps also are equipped with MemoDose technology designed to provide portioned or exact doses at the touch of a button. Maintenance involves changing the tubing, which allows for the fluid to remain completely contained in a sanitary environment and eliminates any possibility of contamination, according to the manufacturer.
