Hello all, not new here, but haven't posted really.
Preface:
I'm in the beginning my second implementation. The first was with a consultant, and this one is on my own. Please bear with me as my first implementation/quality manager position, I was also the general manager and had overall responsibility for the entire business, so I didn't get as involved in the details as I am now as I had to divide my resources and time.
My question is, when writing a procedure, should the level of detail in the manual be significantly less than what is in the procedure itself? Let me explain what led me to this question.
In my manual, under docs and records, I have a detailed description of the identification system of documents, procedures, supporting processes, work instructions, etc. Should this be left as more of an overview with the detailed descriptions and examples being in the procedure itself?
I hope this isn't too confusing, I'm just trying to keep my manual and entire system for that matter, as clutter free as possible.
Cheers,
