4TQExplorer allows viewing of a Review Schedule for 4TQFlow procedures.  Also the Next Review date is displayed in the Details window of 4TQExplorer.

Often we are asked, "How can we manage the reviews or audits of our policies and forms?"

One solution is to use the Document Properties of Microsoft Office docments to insert a custom NextReview field.

Document properties, also known as metadata (metadata: Data that describes other data. For example, the words in a document are data; the word count is an example of metadata.), are details about a file that describe or identify it.

Document properties include details such as title, author name, subject, and keywords that identify the document's topic or contents.  4TQExplorer uses the document properties to display informations including the Title and Process Owner.

To insert a NextReview date in the document properties go to the custom window in the document properties as shown below.



In the Name box, type NextReview.  Then select the data type which is Date.  In the Value box, type a value date using the dd/mm/yyyy format.  Click Add and exit document properties and Save the file.

Add the file to the 4TQExplorer framework or if it is already in the framework Update the file.

In 4TQExplorer Click the Details tab.  The date will appear in the Next Review column.  If the Next Review column is not visible, enable it using the Customize function accessed at the bottom of the Explore window.
