Simple creation and editing of existing workflows
Why is mapping a workflow in anicomply really so easy? Existing workflows are often recorded in a Microsoft Word® document or an SOP. Edit this document and enrich it with a few content controls that allow anicomply to understand your workflows. You don’t need to learn a programming language or commission external service providers to digitise your workflows. Nor do you need several days of training to master just the basic functions. Simply use standard Word functionality! This prevents errors, delays or quality problems that can occur due to an excessive learning curve.
Is anicomply just another ‘paper-on-glass’ application? No! anicomply does not only displays Word documents in a user-friendly format – it transforms your Word documents into true digital workflows that ensure high quality at every step and help the employee to document the work in a process-orientated way.
Do you have important documents such as safety instructions or hazardous substance documentation that you would like to refer to in a suitable place in the workflow? Simply embed them as a PDF in the Word document or link the information directly from your intranet.
That’s it! That’s all you need to do to prepare your document for anicomply.
“From months to minutes? I don’t believe that!”
The terms ‘simple’ and ‘fast’ are met with justified scepticism, especially in highly regulated and validated environments. Some customers are used to having to plan for delays of several months when making workflow adjustments: external programming, revision cycles and feedback loops can consume an enormous amount of time.
– A real-life experience report
During a product presentation, our employee was confident that he could prove our statements. The customer agreed and the SOP of a workflow was processed. Without any preparation or knowledge of the workflow, the document was processed and was available to the customer directly after uploading it to anicomply. How long did the entire process take? 120 minutes!
To be fair, it must be noted that our employee was a little nervous and therefore it took a little longer.
Controlled release in validated environments – freely definable!
You then upload this prepared Word document to anicomply. It translates all your individual steps recorded in the document into a single digital workflow, which is then released in a controlled manner.
The approval steps can be configured and customised to the document types and quality levels. This means no more redundant signature runs. Foremen, supervisors or lab managers, plant management and QA can ensure the quality of the workflows – all within one system!
Use different approval steps for master templates and individual batch documentation and customise anicomply to meet your exact quality requirements.
On the subject of quality: Due to the many years of experience of anic GmbH in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, anicomply can of course be operated as part of a validated environment.
Versioning and traceability of changes
If there are several versions of a document, you have the right system at hand, with anicomply, to guarantee that employees are always working with the correct version.
Release new versions of master documents in a targeted manner and inform your employees of the changes the next time they are processed. With anicomply, you can easily track which batches have been processed with which versions of your workflows.
Available on any end device
Would you like to use stationary systems, tablets or smartphones to process the workflow? No problem. anicomply is available as a highly flexible web application on any of these end devices and is perfect for use. Each workflow can be started on one device and continued on another. And, of course, several people can work in parallel at the same time without getting in each other’s way.
Execute your workflows with the quality standards that your processes expect
Do certain steps only accept certain inputs? How should deviations be documented? Is a step mandatory or can it be cancelled if necessary? Can a one-off entry be changed? Do certain steps require the four-eyes principle or a check by another employee? Who is authorised to approve a certain step? Does the document have to be released by several instances after completion?
With anicomply, you have the full flexibility to process your workflows exactly as you require – without the need for external help or programming!
Genuine quality documentation in your own documents
Do you have specific requirements to fulfil regarding the documentation of the results? The results of a workflow processed in anicomply are automatically recorded during digital processing and written to your originally uploaded document.
You therefore do not need any complex editors or report designers. Your documents and templates can be used seamlessly and easily with anicomply without any restrictions on the layout and structure of the documentation.
Workflow processing according to documented and completed training courses
anicomply ensures that only trained employees are authorised to perform certain tasks. This ensures that all necessary training courses are completed before they are carried out: Simply define the training courses or instructions that are mandatory for each workflow.
Clear archiving and traceability
It does not matter whether it’s previous versions of master documents or processed batch documents and their attached documentation, you can find your documents quickly and easily through the high-performance and clearly organised search function.
