PFD Worksheet Tab

This topic describes how to enter data in the Worksheet tab. For a description of all columns that could be displayed in a PFD worksheet analysis, see PFD Worksheet Columns.

The Worksheet tab provides the structure for documenting each step that a product goes through in a manufacturing or assembly process. There are three types of records in the analysis: operation records, product characteristics records and process characteristics records. The following figure shows an example of a PFD worksheet based on the Standard FMEA profile that is shipped with the software. You can vary the format of the PFD worksheet based on your company's guidelines and standards. If you have the permissions necessary to edit the project properties, you can choose which columns will be enabled for each type of record and what they will be called. This includes user-defined fields and the ability to define the options in the configurable drop-down lists, when applicable.
