9. Operational Qualification

9.1 Some of the OQ test cases are automatic and some are manual. Automatic means that ReportRighter will display the pass/fail result in the Result column. For manual test cases, the validation engineer will need to manually indicate whether the test case passes or fails validation.

NOTE: Automatic does not mean that there is no action needed by the validation engineer to successfully validate. Many of the automatic test cases have instructions that need to be executed for successful validation.

9.2 This work instruction will go into more detail on the instructions and lay them out step by step for ease of validation. The instructions column of SVP5001 does go in order and can also be used. This work instruction is just to make it more user friendly.

10. Validation Instructions

Open the ReportRighter Validation Workbook.xlsx and click the Compile Workbook command button in the ReportRighter group. Save and close the workbook, then open Microsoft Word.
