Regulatory Update - 447

To allow more detailed tracking of standards, we have adapted how we present standards in the "Monitored Requirements" Collection.

In the past, you would find only one entry per standard, with new amendmends or new versions overwriting older ones.

From now one, we will distinguish between the different publications. New amendmends or new versions will lead to a new entry, that is linked to the previous versions for traceability.

When linking to these monitored requirements in your list of applied standards, you can now distinguish clearer between the different versions.

 

New harmonizations have been published by the european union. You can find now, with the status "harmonized" in our Monitored Requirements:

Regulatory Update - 416

We added further new IVDR templates. You can now find ready to use templates for eTD level: Executive Summary. You can now find ready to use templates for product level: Executive Summary, IVDR Classification, Intended Purpose, List of applied Standards. All new templates are available in german and english.

Regulatory Update - 415

We added a new Document Template "Intended Purpose" specifically for IVDR. The scope of the template is on Product level.

We changed our inspections - in the future, if your product is set to the status "in development", the inspector will no longer expect information on "marketed in these countries"

Regulatory Update - 414

We added unique ID fields to the collections "Change Management" and "CAPA Management" to allow for a unique identification of each entry.

We added a new formfield to our eTD datamodel "Is the device directly marked?" - available each on eTD, ProductGroup and Product level

Regulatory Update - 413

We have changed the configuration on all codes (IVP, IVR, IVS, IVT, EMDN, GMDN, JMDN, UMDNS, MD, MDA, MDN, MDS, MDT) to unique. As these codes are saved in collections, no code should ever be twice in those collections.

We added new standard to the Monitored Requirements. New Standards that we added to our Monitoring:
