Workflow role
Traceability review
ATS Trace
ATS Trace helps authorized QA/QC users review weld traceability evidence across workbook-backed records, register evidence, material and consumable checks, welder evidence, WPS context, and review reporting.
Primary use
Read-only weld traceability review for QA and MDR evidence workflows.
For read-only workbook review when QA/QC users need a clearer view of trace evidence, missing links, conflicting records, and review report output.
v0.1 uses a non-data visual until a sanitized ATS Trace demo state is reviewed and approved.
No real workbook, client, project, welder, user, path, or company data is shown.
At a glance
Practical role and public boundary.
Source posture
Protects source records while surfacing review context.
Review value
Groups trace, material, consumable, welder, and WPS evidence for review.
User boundary
Supports review preparation; it does not validate or sign off compliance.
Operator flow
Structured to reduce manual searching and ambiguous handoff.
Load review context
Open the authorized traceability context without changing the source workbook records.
Filter evidence
Narrow dense trace data into practical review slices for material, consumable, welder, or WPS checks.
Review grouped findings
Compare related evidence groups so missing or conflicting records are easier to spot.
Prepare review output
Support QA/MDR review reporting while leaving acceptance and sign-off decisions to authorized review.

Does
What the tool is built to support.
- Supports read-only traceability review.
- Groups material, consumable, welder, and WPS evidence for practical QA review.
- Helps prepare review output for QA/MDR workflows.
- Preserves the boundary around protected source records.
Does not
Authority and privacy boundaries.
- Does not accept welds or validate reports.
- Does not certify compliance or replace authorized sign-off.
- Does not edit source traceability workbooks.

Install and access
Private release handling.
- Use only the release package issued through an authorized channel.
- Confirm the reviewed version before comparing support or release notes.

Support guidance
Useful context without private data.
- Include the app version, review area, filter context, and a sanitized description of the issue.
- State whether the issue affects loading, filtering, evidence grouping, or report preparation.
- Remove workbook names, project names, and report identifiers before sharing screenshots.
Visual status
Product screenshots are deferred until a sanitized demo state is approved.
This v0.1 page uses a composed non-data workflow visual. Actual product screenshots must pass the demo-only screenshot safety workflow before being added to the public site.
