Point and Alarm Change Approval

CIMPLICITY provides the functionality to  maintain an audit trail of:

  • A point's change requests.
  • User performed alarm operations.

Change Approval Overview

The change approval system can require electronic signatures from either of the following:

  • A user who is allowed to perform one or both of the following:
    • A setpoint action for a selected point.
    • A user performed alarm operation.
  • Both a user who is allowed to perform:
    • A setpoint action for a selected point and another user who has the privilege to verify the setpoint action.
    • A user performed alarm operation and another user who has the privilege to verify the alarm operation.

The change approval system tracks setpoint attempts in the form of audit trail.

The Change Approval system is enabled during runtime wherever a setpoint or a user performed alarm operation can be made.
