Re: Document Code Structure for Appendix

"Reference" could work. I was also thinking of "Tool".

Which would be more common?
The idea is to shed the mindset of thinking everything has to have a name and has to be classified. I understand that your documentation system might have been designed such that things are named and classified--it's very common. But you can do yourself a favor by untying that knot, and start thinking in terms of documents. The standard says that forms are a special kind of document, with special controls, and that's the only useful distinction in most cases.

Have a look at my current sig below, which I'll reproduce here because I change it fairly frequently. It's from physicist Richard Feynman, and it directly addresses your conundrum: "I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something."

Re: Document Code Structure for Appendix

Hi Again,

How do you structure the document code for an Appendix? For example, a table that is referenced within a Procedure. I'm not sure whether I should call this PR-001-AP-01 or just AP-001..

In some cases, the Appendix will only link back to just the one Procedure, but in other cases, the one Appendix may need to be referenced to multiple Procedures.

Thanks in advance!

Definitely not an appendix if it referred to by more than one procedure. In MY QMS, this would be a "form", for which we use the prefix FM-xxx (xxx being the numerical code for the form).

Not sure if this helps... just my
