Quality records; PO's - Life of part + 1 Year
We are a supplier of paints and coatings which makes us a batch process industry related supplier.
We are QS9000 registered, but we are trying to make efficient sense of the requirement to store PO's for the life of the active part plus one calender year.
Our registrar interprets the requirement to mean as long as orders come in , it is active. When orders cease, one year later you purge your PO files.
Our question is basic - how do you store and archive the PO's for a variety of raw materials, which are then used in a variety of formulations for a number of different customers, and have individual records that are unique and easily disposable when the formualation is no longer active?
Any and all opinions and ideas are welcomed.
