Posting Action Log Entries

Action log entries are created when the "Post an entry to the Quality Action Log" action is invoked. See: Message Actions.

Consider the following action rule and its associated actions:

Action Rule: When a critical measurement is outside the upper and lower specification limits then
Action 1: Put a job on hold.
Action 2: Post an entry to the Quality Action Log

In this example, two actions are linked to a single rule. When the rule is evaluated and the actions invoked, the text that was entered for the "Post an entry to the Quality Action Log" action is automatically written to the Quality Action Log.

Action log entries are also created when an action being processed in background mode fails. See: QA:Action Mode Processing.
