How ratings work: mark each of Present, Suitable, Operating, Effective as yes or no. A gap on Present or Suitable suggests a major nonconformance; a gap on Operating or Effective suggests a minor one; you can override the suggestion. This browser keeps a working draft as you go, but that draft can be cleared, so use Export progress (a small file you re-import next session) to keep a safe copy. Copy report puts a plain-text summary on your clipboard to paste into an email or document.
