                                             Q.A.




        QUALITY SQUARE INDUSTRY
Good documentation constitutes an essential part
         of the Quality Assurance system.

       Schedule M : Good Manufacturing practices, 12 : Documentation and records
                                             EU GMP – Chapter 4: Documentation
Contents
   What is Good Documentation Practice (GDP) ?
   Purpose of Good Documentation Practices ?
   Standards of the GDP
   Types of the Documents
   Typical elements of the Document
   Common Documentation Errors
   How to acquire good documentation practice ?
   Benefits of the GDP
General philosophy of any Quality System



            Say What you do?
            Do what you say ?
        Prove what you say and do
What is Documentation ?
          To Document each Activity you perform




No, Documentation is a Process, Which comprises of Following :
   -   Recording of Data
   -   Approval of Documents
   -   Issuance and Disposal of Documents
   -   Retrievability of Documents
   -   Presentation of Documents
   -   Review of Documents
Good Documentation practice
                        GDP

  "Right-first-time“ approach for the document is GDP
     (to ensure identity, authenticity and accuracy of records.)

If your Document says “What actions took place in the development
   or manufacturing of product so that anyone, including auditor or
  inspector has documented evidence that you did exactly what you
                         said ” that is GDP.
Regulatory Requirements

 FDA  Q7A Good Manufacturing Practice Guidance for Active
  Pharmaceutical Ingredients, Section VI. Documentation and Records


 ICH Good Manufacturing Practice Guide for API Q7, Section 6

The purpose of documentation

 Proof of fact
 Record
 Regulatory requirement

GDP standards

    Document creation
   Contemporaneous with the event they describe
   When electronically produced, the documentation must be
    checked for accuracy
   Free from errors

    personnel.
Document Signatures
   All documentation used to provide evidence that standards are
    being followed must be signed and dated by authorized person as
    it adds value to the document.
   Means of Signature
       For the approval
       Authorized person involved in it
   No signature pads, scanned signatures, or duplicated original
    signatures shall be used to replace a handwritten signature by
    the person signing.

 Controls exist to prevent the inadvertent use of superseded
  documents
 Electronic versions can only be modified by authorized personnel
  and controlled by password or other means
 A history must be maintained of changes and deletions to
  electronic versions as well as paper documents.

Typical elements of a documentation system


 Logo
 Title
 Doc. no
 Effective date
 Revision
 Page no
 Signature
 Format
 Stamp
Document Numbering
 All document shall have a unique document number.
 This is typically issued by a document control department or

Date & Time

 A legal date is comprised of a month, day, and year, although not
    necessarily in that order. Local conventions are assumed unless
    otherwise specified in an SOP.
   It should be in uniform format. For example : DD/MM/YY or
    DD/MM/YYYY
   Postdating (entering a date of the future) is not permitted
   Backdating (entering a date on a day after the entry was made or
    the task was performed) is not permitted

    for documenting date and time (AM/PM or 24 hr) shall be
    defined.
Document Effective Date

 Date of the change or the date from which the document become

 Effective date changes on every new change in the document.
  And each change should be recorded at change history at the
  front page of the document


                   Document Review Date
 Date given to the document after the respective departmental
  head review the document in consultation with actual user.
 And after approval all the master and controlled copies are
  stamped as “REVIEWED” on the document with review and next
  review date.
Document Review
 Document review will focus on the document‟s content, context,
  format and grammar.
 The document quality attributes of concern document review are
  correctness, usability, appropriateness and maintainability.
 Review factors and criteria are :
    Adherence to standards
    Consistency and traceability
    Readability, comprehensibility, and general understandability
    Technical adequacy and feasibility of approach
    Degree of completeness
    Testability of requirements

Document Revision
 All documents shall have a revision level & latest document should live.
 Two type of the revision
 1. Routine revision :
 - No technical or editorial modification but at the end of the two
    years of the effective date.
 - HOD will review and if there is no any change then HOD shall send
    internal communication that this document doesn‟t need revision.
 - If yes then Review the document and stamped as “REVIEWED”
 - Valid only twice then document is revised as per DCC procedure.
 2.Technical or editorial revision :
    This type of the revision shall be carried out by Document change
     control procedure and recorded.

 Every piece of a document shall be marked with the page number as
  well as the total number of pages in the documents. X of Y.
Signature & Date

   The “write over” and the “scribbler”.
   Non uniform date and signature entry.
   Data entries that do not correspond to the batch record
    instructions.
   Writing a note that activity was performed on one day and
    signed for on other day.
   Blanks on batch production records.
   Pre-recording of data.
   Incomplete references.
   Review not signed.
   Illegible writing.
   Too many corrections.
Common Documentation error
How to acquire GD practice ?

 FDA statement should drilled into you from day one
    „'If you didn't document it, then it didn't happen„‟.
   On one hand do the work, On other make the document
   Use indelible (water-resistant) blue or black ink
   Never use White ink to remove error
   Do not use pencil or felt-tipped marker
   Never overwrite or Scribbled the entry. Just single cut the error
    with sign and date.
   Never leave space or blank in the document and Draw a diagonal
    line through any blank fields or empty spaces at the bottom of a
    page and include 'N/A' along with your initials and date.
Cont….

   NEVER back date, NEVER post date and date in uniform format
   Each page in a controlled notebook chronologically.
   When entering repetitive data, do not use ditto marks.
   For instrument printouts, adhere with clear adhesive tape and
    include your signature and date where the printout is attached.
   Signature logs must be maintained, indicating each employees
    printed name, signature and date.
   We should forget the syndrome “We can fix the documentation
    later .......”.
