Frequently asked questions
PharmaSoft is committed to empowering pharmaceutical and biotech teams with trusted, compliant, and fully validated digital solutions supported by expert guidance across quality, manufacturing, and laboratory operations.
What types of audits can be planned and managed in softQMS Audit Management?
Internal GMP audits, self-inspections, customer audits, regulatory inspections (FDA, MHRA, CDSCO), and system/process audits can all be managed within the system.
How does the audit planning and scheduling workflow work?
Audit schedules are created with defined scope, auditees, timelines, and objectives. The system notifies relevant teams in advance and tracks all pre-audit preparation activities.
How are audit findings and observations documented?
Findings are categorized (critical, major, minor, observation) and documented digitally with evidence attachments, assigned owners, and due dates for corrective actions.
How does Audit Management link to the CAPA module?
Audit findings are directly linked to CAPAs, ensuring every critical or major observation is addressed with corrective and preventive actions, along with effectiveness tracking.
Can multiple auditors collaborate on a single audit?
Yes. Multiple auditors can contribute findings within the same audit, which are consolidated into a unified audit report at closure.
How are audit responses, corrective actions, and approvals tracked?
Auditees respond to findings within the system, with automated reminders for overdue responses. All responses and corrective actions are reviewed, approved, and tracked until closure.
What reports and dashboards are available in the Audit Management module?
The system provides audit summary reports, finding categorization, trend analysis by department or audit type, open CAPA status, and real-time compliance dashboards.
How does the module support regulatory inspections and audit readiness?
Real time dashboards and centralized records ensure all audit data, findings, CAPAs, and closures are inspection-ready and can be retrieved instantly during regulatory inspections.
How are repeat audit findings identified and addressed?
The system tracks findings across audit cycles, flags repeat observations, and provides trend analysis to identify systemic gaps and drive continuous improvement.
Is the Audit Management module compliant with regulatory requirements such as 21 CFR Part 11?
Yes. The module complies with 21 CFR Part 11 and EU Annex 11, supporting electronic signatures, audit trails, secure access, and data integrity controls to ensure full regulatory compliance.
