Viewing Information About a Design FMECA

There are several ways to view detailed information about a design FMECA in the analysis window:
•
To take a comprehensive look at the FMECA, select the Explorer view. The Analysis tab displays a tree of the items associated with the analysis, such as functions, worksheets, feasibility assessments, and team members. The table to the right shows information about the item selected in the tree. For example, select Decision worksheet node to see a list of failure modes and their evaluations:
Tip: Select to view detailed information about individual failure modes.
•
To view detailed information about an analysis’ failure modes, recommended tasks, action types, tasks, and indicators, select the Implementation view, Action Plans tab.
•
To review how the analysis is implemented, select the Implementation view and the Implementation Audit tab. This tab offers configurations showing inspection tasks without indicators, scheduled restoration tasks without corrective tasks, modifications without a project, and more.
•
To view counts of action plans, indicators, and corrective tasks, select the Analysis Summary view. This view also lists the symptoms assigned to failure modes on the Fault Guide tab.
•
To view tables of action plans according to action type, select the Action Plans view and then choose the action type from the list of configurations. This view also shows a chart comparing the plans by action type and detailed information about the template on which the analysis is based.
•
To view the changes made to the analysis over time, select the History view. The History view displays the Analysis Audit Info, Asset Audit Info, Status, Functions, Functional Failures, Failure Modes, Action Plans, Criticality, Interval Calculators, and Copy Requests tabs.
This topic explains the information displayed on the Analysis Summary view and the History view.
