Prerequisite
- Access the Settings menu > General parameters (FM035).
Presentation
The general parameters of SoftExpert FMEA focus on the global settings that influence the component's behavior throughout the system.
Through this menu, it is possible to define rules that impact the execution of analyses, the control of actions, the re-evaluation of indices, and the integration with other components of the platform.
These configurations ensure standardization, control, and adherence to the methodologies adopted by the organization, guaranteeing that all FMEAs follow the same operational guidelines.
Configure general parameters
1. Access the Settings menu > General parameters (FM035).
2. On the screen that will appear, view the available options for configuring the component's behavior.
3. Define whether the review of the indices (Severity, Occurrence, and Detection) will be allowed during the execution of the actions.
- When enabled, the person responsible for the action will be able to enter new values for the indices after execution, allowing for a reassessment of the risk.
4. Configure the behavior related to the execution of actions, defining whether they can be executed directly in the FMEA or whether they must be handled exclusively through integration with the SoftExpert Action Plan, when this integration is enabled.
5. Adjust the rules for submitting actions for approval, according to the workflow adopted by the organization.
6. After completing the desired settings, click 
to apply the defined parameters.
- The settings made in the general parameters affect all FMEAs of the system.
- It is recommended that these parameters be defined before the start of the analyses, avoiding inconsistencies during execution.
- Changes made after the creation of FMEAs can impact the behavior of tasks and the execution of actions.
Conclusion
The general parameters of SoftExpert FMEA are essential to ensure the consistent and controlled operation of the component.
By correctly defining these settings, the organization ensures that FMEA analyses follow clear rules, promoting greater reliability in risk assessment, action execution, and results monitoring, thus strengthening continuous improvement and process governance.
