QMS Overview

The Qability Quality Management System (QMS) brings your quality processes, documents, operations, training, and suppliers into one auditable workspace. Every change is attributed and time-stamped, so you always have a complete history.

Concepts that apply everywhere

  • Records — Most things you create (an NC, a CAPA, a document, a log entry) are records with a status, an owner, and a history.
  • Statuses — Records move through defined statuses (for example Draft → In Review → Approved → Closed). The available statuses depend on the record type.
  • Workflows — Reviews and approvals can be routed automatically through configurable workflow steps with assigned roles and outcomes.
  • Roles & permissions — What each person can see and do is controlled by the roles assigned to them.
  • Sites & departments — Records and people can be scoped to a site or department.
  • Audit trail — Every create, edit, and status change is recorded immutably and visible in the Audit Logs.
