Classifications & Codelists

These are the smaller reference lists used to classify records across the Audits, Findings, and Action Items modules.

Categories that classify audits — e.g. Internal Audit, Supplier Audit, Customer Audit, Process Audit. Audit types are also linked to Question Catalogs to ensure the right checklist is used for the right kind of audit.

A secondary classification layer for findings — e.g. Documentation, Process, Infrastructure, Competence. Configured independently of severity (severity is always the ISO 9001 three-level scale: Observation, Minor Nonconformity, Major Nonconformity). See Creating & Classifying Findings.

Priority levels for action items — e.g. High, Medium, Low. Each priority can have a numeric weight for sorting and reporting.

Roles assignable to audit team members — e.g. Lead Auditor, Auditor, Auditee, Observer. The role indicates the person’s function within the audit team. See Audit Team & Roles.
