When creating a plan there is an option to add a Zone to each location. This will allow data in the Results tables to be viewed by Zone type.
The Zone is based on HACCP Zone criteria and as such there are 4 Zone options.
Zone 1 = Product Contact Surface
Zone 2 = Non PCS within close proximity to PCS
Zone 3 = Non PCS within process area but more removed from PCS
Zone 4 = Non PCS outside processing areas
On the Ensure Touch instrument, the Zone description is shown in the Zone text box.
Zone detail can be added to locations either on the Sure Trend Cloud or on the Ensure Instrument.
