    Efficiently Manage Training by Adding Courses to Roles

    Safety_Vest

    In this release, you can now efficiently update training from your course records.

     Release 27.2 | SDS Management

    Save Time Accessing Important SDS Information 

    We are committed to improving how you manage Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) with our integration with SDS Manager. This integration provides a searchable database of millions of SDSs.

    Now as you create an SDS record, SDS information will automatically populate from any SDS you search and add to your SDS library.

    How does it work?

    • Search and select an SDS from the SDS Manager database. An icon in the SDS library will now indicate which records are linked to an SDS from the database.
    • Information from the selected SDS will automatically populate corresponding fields within the SDS record.
      • Any data that doesn’t have a direct corresponding field will appear in the ‘other data’ field in the SDS record.
    • When sharing SDSs via mobile devices to your workers, key fields are available immediately without opening the attachment.

    This saves time, ensuring critical information from any SDS is easily accessible whether in Assure or AssureGO+.
