DOIs

Line-by-Line Checking

When checking work that was done by a trainee, every detail must be checked on every record in the area where they're being trained until the person is doing the work correctly for a few days. After that, give special attention to things that they might not have encountered before.

When checking work done by someone trained to do the work, spot check, by checking one detail in each record. Don't follow the order given here, but start with something different each time. When spot checking, if you find an error, check the element in items where the error might also have occurred.  If there are 4 error free works in row, you can skip detail checking on the next two lines.

Cover Sheets

Check that they are included and correctly filled in. 

Check the transfer of notes to the appropriate column

Check that all notes have been transferred to the appropriate columns.

Titles
