In  module while creating or editing a Lockout Procedure often there’s a need to edit some Isolating Device details, such as Position, need of Padlock for lockout, device description, etc. In case of absence of the critical information, such as Position, platform will show a reminder under the device Identifier in the Procedure


  1. To quickly switch to the Isolation Device details window, without closing the current Lockout Procedure (because it will be necessary to come back to it and continue building it) click on device Identifier in the top of the step information


  1. This opens the Device details page, where information may be edited and changes published, which will affect existing procedures that this device is implied at. Platform will show notification that changes are not saved until confirmed by the user to be published.


  1. In case there are already some procedures in the status more advanced than the first step of the Workflow, the window will open asking to indicate whether affected procedures have to be returned to the first Status of the Workflow or remain in their current Status. User should make decision depending on the character of changes made and provide justification of changes if procedures are returning to the New category status.


  1. As you publish changes, they’re applied to the current procedure too that is being worked on, and become visible as the page is refreshed.
