Maintaining Acceptance Actions for a Material

An acceptance action establishes what samples, tests, or field inspections are required for the acceptance and approval of a material or material category. It may include multiple options, each with one or more rate/frequencies, such as one daily work report per contract, or three slumps test per 50 cubic yards installed, or one certification per source used, and so on. 

The Acceptance Actions tab on the Material Summary component contains all of the acceptance actions associated with the reference material in two lists:

Locate a specific acceptance action in either list by typing criteria in the Quick Find search box or by clicking Show first 10. The system displays a list of rows for all the acceptance actions that match your search criteria. Each row represents one acceptance action.

In both lists, each row contains an Actions button and displays current values for these fields:

In the Additional Acceptance Actions section, click in a field and add, change, or delete information as needed.

To delete an acceptance action in the Additional Acceptance Actions section, select Delete from the Actions menu on the action row. To reverse the deletion, click the Undo button.

To add a new acceptance action for this material, click the New button in the Additional Acceptance Actions section. The system adds a new blank row to the list. To save a new acceptance action, you must enter a value in the Name field.

When you are finished, click the Save button. The system displays a message to confirm that your changes were saved in the database.

To view or change additional information about an acceptance action, select Open from the Actions menu on the action row. The Acceptance Action Summary component contains all of the information for an acceptance action. See Maintaining Acceptance Actions.
