Reviewing Lockdown Fields

For most purposes, you want your product issue data to contain the up-to-date information. For example, if an account has changed its name, you want have its current name appear in all product issues records so that a query for the current name returns the complete set of product issues associated with the account, both before and after the name change.

However, for record keeping, you might also want to maintain some relational data exactly as it was when the product issue was closed. For example, after the product issue was closed, Dana Frederick changes her name to Dana Feldman. Her new name was updated through the Contacts screen, and this change is reflected in the current product issue record. However, the Lockdown view for the product issue shows Dana’s name when product issue was closed. (See the following figure.)

The application should be configured so that the fields appropriate for your business processes are locked down. In the preconfigured application, some fields are locked down at review complete and others are locked down when the product issue is closed.

This task is a step in Process of Closure for Adverse Events and Complaints Management.

2. In the Product Issue List, drill down on a product issue record.
