Correspondence between ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 9001:1994 Standard

Here's a question.

At the back of my copy of the ISO 9K:2K standard there is a table labeled 'Annex B, Correspondance Between ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 9001:1994'. Is this complete? If so which way? What I mean is are all the elements from one standard or the other covered? Is there obsolete stuff from 1994?

I don't think I'm making myself very clear, but I hope somebody understands me!

Thanks!

Fire Girl,
There you are! If you look at Table B.2 you will see some blank areas opposite the 1994 references. That's new stuff. Conversely, in table B.1 opposite the new standard, if there are blank spaces, it means (to me) that's new stuff or something different. Also, see the "informative" in parenthesis? Watch out, because that means that those tables are not meant to be all inclusive.
How's it going "little buddy"? I keep trying. And I'm not paranoid. It's just that everybody's after me.

Something that might help -
What I did a long time ago was identify my documents (using a db I developed) by what ISO element they related. This helped because our internal audit format was by element and thus I could quickly print up a list of associated documents for our auditors to references for their sampling.

I took the 2000 rev & did the same using the matrix provided (just added spaces for extra fields in the db). The documents will still need to be reveiwed for applicability since some things are split into multiple clauses, but shouldn't be too difficult - then I'll clean them up and have ready lists for int aud by new clauses.

By the way, due to our # system, the dept is already identified, so doing process reviews is quick and simple as well.
