Menu Item "Measures Management"

Measures management is the core function for the organization and management of training measures in your company.

In this area you create your own or record external measures, edit them, and monitor their status.

1.4.9.1. Measures Management

The status in the tabular view is influenced by setting various date values within a measure.

Setting the following date in the measure details results in:

Start/End Date undefined
These two date values are not set, i.e. the measure is not yet scheduled.
Start/End Date defined
This status is reached once both date values are defined.
Conducted On defined
This date is defined (should not be before the start/end date).
Execution Until defined & less than (<) today
This date is defined, and today's date is earlier than the defined date
Measure Undetermined
The measure/training requires manual review, because something was deleted or an error occurred.
Effectiveness Review Required
The measure is completed, but the required effectiveness review is missing.
Measure Completed/Archived enabled
This option is enabled in the measure details, or this status is assigned to a measure via the context menu.

2 Measures Management

Double-clicking a single value in the table opens the measure details.

StatusA measure always has one of these states:
openThe measure is still pending. This means the measure is still being planned and has not yet been conducted, or not all evidence has been submitted yet.
plannedThe measure is still pending. This means the measure is already scheduled (date set) but has not yet been conducted.
completedThe measure was successfully completed, and all evidence has been submitted.
Eff. missingThe measure was successfully completed, and all evidence has been submitted, but the required effectiveness review has not yet taken place.
expiredThe measure was not conducted within the specified period and has not yet been made up.
ArchiveThe measure is in the archive. It is then no longer shown in measures management, but only in the employee details of the assigned employee. Administrators can make all these measures accessible again via annual planning.
