Quick guide to create a specification to check compliance

How to create customer and supplier specifications 

SmartCert can now support specifications, automating supplier cert reviews and pre-populating data for customer certs. 
  1. For each specification, provide a clear name and explain its connection to a specific industry standard, supplier, customer, or part by adding a Specification name.
  2. From the list on the right, select a field you want to add, and drag it to the left. You can also use the search bar to search over 200+ fields available.
  3. Next, select a Condition type from the list.
    • Define

    • Minimum

    • Maximum

    • Range

    • Pattern

    • Not empty

    • UOM Pattern

    • Field of Calculation

      4. Define the rule that you'd like SmartCert to check against.

     Examples: Carbon should be defined as 0.09
                       Sulfur Minimum is 0.42
                       Sulfur Maximum is 0.97  
                       Chromium Range is Min 0.12-Max 0.89

      5. Keep building your specification by defining specific rules. When you're done,
          save your specification. You can then use it to check compliance on received
          SmartCerts and utilize them to populate data when generating customer certs.

      6. You can copy a specification and make adjustments for those that are similar in
          scope. You can also deactivate/archive specifications that have been replaced so
          they are still referenceable but not available in your specification dropdown.

UPDATE:  SmartCert has an AI-powered compliance review process that speeds up cert reviews and verifies that the data matches - and you can even set your specifications to run automatically as certs come in so nothing slips through!
