What Is a Recording? #
Azumuta has an exceptional feature: Recordings. A recording is an organized repository of data related to a training event that has been executed (be it partially or completely) by an operator.
The types of data that are stored in a recording include:
- The version of the work instruction that was used in the training event.
- The name of the trainers who executed the training event.
- The date & time of the training event’s execution, as well as the date & time for the execution of each instruction step.
- The time spent by the trainees on that training event, as well as the time spent on each individual instruction step.
- The answer to all product checks on that training event.
A recording can be used for various purposes, such as:
- An automated training tracking system: A training recording digitally records all important details related to a training activity – so you no longer need do it manually.
- To track your employees’ talent development: Use your training reports to keep track of your employees’ expertise and skillset development by analyzing their training reports over time.
- To fulfill regulatory/certification requirements: Some regulations/certifications require you to have a detailed record of your employee training activities. Therefore, our platform records every single detail of your plant’s training activities. You can access these records at any moment.
- And many other use cases.
How to See the List of Recordings? #
There are 2 levels where recordings are stored:
- On the module level
- On the work instruction level
We will provide a more detailed explanation of both levels in the guide sections below:
How to See the List of Recordings on the Module Level #
- Click on “Skill Matrix & Trainings” in the homepage sidebar.
- Click on “Training Procedures”.
- Click on the “Recordings” tab.
Here’s an explanation of the recordings list in this module:
- This column shows the type of each recording and its status.
- This column shows the work instruction for each recording, as well as its version.
- This column shows the execution date & time of each recording, as well as the name of the trainer that executed it/will execute it.
- This column shows the report for each recording. A report contains various valuable information, such as the answer to each product check, the date & time of each instruction step’s execution, and the duration spent by the trainees on each instruction step.
- This column provides a three-dot icon for each recording. When clicked, you can fill out the work instruction (as an admin), edit the recording, delete the recording, and add/edit the status of the recording.
- Click to search for a specific recording.
- You can navigate between pages of the recording list here.
How to See the List of Recordings on the Work Instruction Level #
Besides seeing the list of recordings on the module level, you can also see the list of recordings on the work instruction level. By doing this, you will only see the list of recordings that are linked to a specific work instruction.
Here’s how to see the list of recordings that are linked to a work instruction:
- Navigate to the work instruction for which you want to see the list of recordings.
- Click on the “Recordings” tab.
The list of recordings on the work instruction level will have the same interface as the one on the module level.
How to Search for a Specific Recording #
Besides navigating to the list of recordings on the module/work instruction level and looking for a recording manually, you can also use our Advanced search feature. This feature will lead you to the desired recording by configuring the search options.
How to Access the Advanced Search Feature #
But before we demonstrate you how to use the advanced search feature, we will first show you how you can access it. There are 2 ways to access the advanced search feature:
