This edition applies to MES15 Portal 1.0 Application and all subsequent releases and modifications until otherwise indicated in new revisions.'


Employee Validation Setup

This edition applies to MES15 Portal 1.0 (Employee Validation Module) and all subsequent releases and modifications until otherwise indicated in new revisions.

This module is responsible for creating trainings that operators should perform to work in manufacturing processes. The whole operator control (registration and information maintenance) and trainings and certificates required for the operators work in shop floor (mainly in medical plants) will be administered by this feature.

Employee Validation is a manual input module that allows individuals working on the employee other than those creating a new configuration and maintaining an existing one.

It provides a method of creating employee / password / training records that can be administered by non-SFDC personnel, and provides a method of identifying specific processes that must be controlled.

It will still support the traditional login methods for data collectors without controlled processes.

Employee Validation is accessed using two paths:

1. Shop Floor Control > Configuration > Employee Validation.

2. Quality > Employee Validation.


The Certificate, EV Process, and Process Group maintenance sub-modules are available only through path 1, which is known as EV Configuration. Class Maintenance and Employee Maintenance sub-modules are available only through path 2, which is known as EV Maintenance.

These instructions address the path 1 (EV Configuration) sub-modules.



Figure 1: MES Modules

Figure 1 EV Config Portal Location.jpg
















The Employee Validation Maintenance page is displayed as follows:


Figure 2: Employee Validation Maintenance

















Employee Validation is composed by sub-modules and these work instructions will help users to understand each one.

  • EV Process Maintenance
  • Process Group Maintenance
  • Certificate Maintenance


Process Maintenance

Processes are created in the SFDC Maintenance module. In EV, the user is able to add theseprocesses. The added processes are those that EV will download to SFDC and check for Classes. In this step the user is able to add, edit, remove, and re-add processes and process groups that will be managed inside the Employee Validation Module.

To access the EV Processes Maintenance, navigate to Shop Floor Control > Configuration > Employee Validation and select EV Process Maintenance from the main page. The Process list main page is displayed.  

Listing Process

Figure 3: Processes List


1. To search, type the process name into the Filter field. Search results are generated as the user enters letters into the field.

Adding Processes

Figure 4: Add Process List


The available processes are displayed to be added in EV.

1. To define the processes to be controlled by EV, double-click a process on the left-hand side of the page. The selected processes are moved to the process list on the right-hand side of the page and are highlighted in yellow.

2. If preferred, move all processes over by selecting Save All Processes.

3. Select Save to update or Reset to cancel.


NOTE: If there are multiple processes that are to be controlled by Employee Validation, yet fall into the same certification, these processes can be grouped together by defining a process group. Click on the Process Group Maintenance module. See the Process Group Maintenance section for specific instructions on how to create process groups.


Editing Processes

To Edit (Enable and Disable) Processes, follow the steps below.

Figure 5: Edit Processes

1. Select the processes to be updated and click the Enable/Disable icon.

Figure 17: Add Certificate


1. Complete the fields with the appropriate information:

  • Certificate Name: The name of the new certificate.
  • Pilgrim Role: Used to assign a certificate to a Pilgrim role. It was created to maintain a list of the roles in Pilgrim that require training for EV purposes and are linked to the EV certificates assigned to the respective roles.
  • Life Span: The number of days a certificate is valid.
  • Grace Period: The number of days allowed after expiration (cannot be greater than 30).

2. Click on Ok to confirm. The new certificate must display in the Certificate list.

3. Click on the Add Process / Process Group tab to define the process or group that is assigned to the certificate (see the expanded instructions below).


Adding Process/Process Group to the certificate:


Figure 18: Certificate X Process/Process Group


Use the Process/Process Group tab to define the process or group that is assigned to the certificate.

1. Select theProcess Groups check box to add process groups available in the list. Do the same steps to Processes and click on the Add button. The inserted process/process group is displayed in the Process/Process Group tab.

NOTE: You cannot create a certificate without having at least one process or group assigned.

2. To add a process to the process groups, select Add Process. The added processes/process groups are shown highlighted.


Creating generic certificates:

If multi-pass device numbers are used in SFDC, then it is recommended to create a generic certificate and assign some process to it. The process does not have to exist in any route. An example would be SFDC Training for the process. The process is not used for any locations or in any route. The process is controlled by Employee Validation and a generic certificate is created for this process.

All employee numbers are assigned to this certificate/process. The reason for this is to allow any employee to log into a device number that has one or more EV controlled processes. Without a generic certificate/process, employees would not be able to log into the device number to perform the non-EV controlled processes that are assigned to the multi-pass device number. Employee validation ensures that serial numbers that are at a controlled process and can only be scanned by employees that have the necessary certification for the controlled process. Without the generic certificate/process, non-certified employees will not be able to log into multi-pass device numbers.

Remove a 'Certificate ''''''Process/Process Group:

NOTE: Every time the user adds a new process to a certificate, the application creates a new instance of that certificate. All classes created before the certificate changes will be linked to the old certificate instance.


Consider the following scenario:

  • Create Certificate CERT with process A and B.
  • Create a Class for CERT with employees Thomas and Keith.
  • Edit CERT and add the new process C.


On this example the employees Thomas and Keith will be trained only on the processes A and B. If the certificate is changed, they will need to be trained on process C as well; therefore, another class will need to be created for the same CERT.

SFDC setup to enable Employee Validation

After completing the configuration of Employee Validation, the configuration must be downloaded to the SFDC PC in order to take effect.

To download the Employee Validation configuration, perform an emvdnld on the SFDC PC. Refer to the SFDC Operations manual for additional information. Two OPTIONS lines (OPTIONS EMPVAL VALIDATION=YES and OPTIONS EMPVAL_PROD PRODUCT=pbm) must be enabled in the Setup Data Editor, and downloaded to the SFDC PC in order for the configuration to actually take effect. Refer to the Employee Validation section in the SFDC Operations manual for details for all the required configuration for Employee Validation in the Setup Data Editor.
