HACCP in jeCheck

The HACCP section is a separate food safety module, independent of checklists. It keeps scheduled measurement logs, automatically turns any out-of-limit value into a deviation, and builds a HACCP plan following the 12 steps of the Codex Alimentarius. The country profile defines the regulations, log forms and limits.

Menu items

The left menu has a HACCP group:

• HACCP overview — inspection readiness, log completion, deviations, control point charts and upcoming deadlines;
• Today — what needs to be filled in at the location right now; handy to open on a tablet or phone in the kitchen;
• Logs — the company's logs with their fields, limits, schedule and all entries;
• Deviations — the register of deviations and corrective actions;
• HACCP plan — the 12-step plan with versions and approval;
• HACCP directories — equipment, staff, suppliers, verification, documents and module settings.

Country profiles

The profile is chosen when you launch the module and can be changed in the settings. It determines the log templates, equipment types, staff documents and print forms.

Regulations in the templates cite the document and clause. If a clause hasn't been checked against the original source, it's marked “check against the document”. The list of the profile's regulatory documents is available in the launch wizard and in the Documents directory.

Launching the module

Until HACCP is set up, an administrator or HACCP manager who opens the section is taken to the five-step HACCP launch wizard:

1. Country and regulations. Choose the country profile. You'll see whether HACCP is mandatory and the profile's regulatory framework.

   

2. Locations. Tick the locations where HACCP is kept and set the Facility type, Seats and Shift start. The type determines the mandatory logs and laboratory testing.

3. Equipment. Add fridges, freezers, storerooms and other equipment for each location — each item gets its own row in the log and its own range.

4. Logs. Tick the log templates. The ones recommended for your country are already selected.

5. Done. Set the HACCP team leader, Time zone and Default shift start, then click Launch HACCP.

You can open the wizard again: HACCP directories → Settings → Setup wizard.

Who can do what

• Administrators and HACCP managers run the module: settings, the plan (and the list of plans), logs, directories, reviewing and closing deviations. HACCP managers are assigned in Settings → HACCP managers; administrators are always managers.
• Location managers see the logs and entries of their locations, correct and annul entries, work on deviations and confirm the closing of non-critical deviations.
• Location employees fill in the logs of their location if their job title is among the log's responsible roles or no responsible roles are set.

Employees see only the locations they're linked to. If there are none, the Today page shows “No locations available”.

Inspection readiness

On the HACCP overview page, the “Inspection readiness” score (out of 100) is made up of five parts: logs kept on schedule, deviations closed, HACCP plan approved and up to date, staff medical checks and training valid, verification and calibration on time. Hover over a part to see an explanation. The filters at the top are location and a period of 7, 30 or 90 days.

Plan

The module is included in the Network and Enterprise plans. The Today page and entering log records are not restricted by plan.
