Create Findings

Findings can be created in the following ways:

  • In case anomaly triggers have been set up for specific event fields and those triggers are violated (see Configure Event Types), findings are automatically created when event data is created, saved or imported. For example, when an anomaly trigger is defined on a CP event, where the CP reading value is outside -800mv and -1200mv, NEXUS IC will automatically create a finding on that event when the event is created.

  • Findings can be imported together with event import (see Import Events)

  • Findings can be synchronised from IC-Inspection in case an inspection engineer created findings there.

  • You can also manually create a finding from an event in NEXUS IC as described below.

Add Findings Manually

  1. On the INSPECTION screen, select the relevant event on the Event Listing tab.

  2. Go to the Findings pane and click add Add in the toolbar.

  3. In the Add Finding dialog, enter the details of the finding as required. For information about filling the fields in this dialog, see Add/Edit Finding Dialog.

  4. Click OK.

    Result

    The new finding record is added to the list on the Finding Listing tab. On the Event Listing tab, the colour of the icon in the F column becomes yellow and when selecting the event here, the finding record is visible on the Findings pane.
