Regardless of which module you're working in, certain capabilities are consistently available:
Attachments
Add documents, images, specifications, or any files as supporting evidence or documented information. Photos from mobile devices, PDF reports, Excel analyses - attach whatever provides context or proof.
Comments
Internal discussion and collaboration directly within the context of each item. Ask questions, provide updates, share insights without switching to email. Complete conversation history maintained.
Status Tracking
Every item automatically tracks its current status (open, in progress, pending verification, completed, etc.). You always know where things stand. Complete audit trail shows who changed status when and why.
Activity Timeline
Automatic record of everything that happens: who did what, when, and why. Reconstruct the complete history of any item. Essential for audits and understanding how situations evolved.
Traceability
Links between related items are maintained automatically. See which actions came from which issues, which risks led to which control activities, which verifications relate to which actions. Navigate the connections easily.
Filtering and Search
Find what you need quickly. Filter by date, status, responsible person, type, or any custom field. Save frequently-used filter combinations. Search across all content.
Downloadable Lists
Export any list or filtered view with selectable fields. Choose which columns to include in your export, enabling customized reports and data analysis in external tools.
Automatic PDF Generation
When enabled, automatically generate PDF documents of any activity or list element. Create formatted, shareable records of control activities, issues, actions, or any other item for distribution or archiving.
Notifications
Stay informed without being overwhelmed. Each user configures what alerts they receive (email, in-app, or both) and for which types of events. Get notified when items are assigned to you, when deadlines approach, when status changes affect you.
RACI Assignment
Every module uses the same responsibility assignment approach: Supervisor (oversees and approves), Responsible (does the work), Consulted (provides input), Informed (receives updates). Consistent across the application.
Mobile Access
All functionality works on mobile devices through native iOS and Android apps. Perform control activities in the field, report issues on the spot, review your task list anywhere, capture photos directly.
Configurable Custom Fields
Administrators can customize what information each module captures. Different types of control activities can have different fields. Different issue types can capture different data. Adapt to your needs.
Learn once, apply everywhere. These shared features mean the system works consistently whether you're managing a control activity, evaluating an issue, or implementing a corrective action.
This overview shows how ComQual organizes and connects quality management activities. The actual experience is more intuitive than this description might suggest - once you start using the system, the structure makes sense and the workflows become natural. Most users focus on their specific tasks (perform this control, evaluate this report, complete this action) without thinking about the broader organizational structure, which works quietly in the background to keep everything properly organized and connected.
