For automatic creation of a WPS, please see item 16 on page 2.2. Begin 2 headerfilling out the record by entering the information. While filling out this record, make sure to take advantage of the drop-down menus and databases rather than typing the information manually. Take notice of the check marks in the 3 section of this example. The dynamicScope forms in WeldOffice use these marks to determine which fields are needed. For example, when With PWHT is not selected, WeldOffice will not require data to be entered for PWHT.

When specifying the filler metal, remember 4 select it from the Filler Material Database to instead of manually typing the information. To do this, place the cursor in the SFA field and click on the database icon . Locate and select the desired filler metal(s) and then press the Accept button. Notice that WeldOffice enters the proper SFA, Classification, F and A numbers automatically. Note: Multiple filler metal classifications may be specified. Everything that is selected will appear in the Notes section on page 2. WeldOffice allows up 5 welding processes. you to specifyyou to three Additionally, can also

specify up to five filler metal sizes for each process. To do this, click inside the Filler metal size field and then locate the Add Column icon on the Tool Bar at the top of the screen. Click this icon and watch how this field splits with each click. This will also split all other applicable fields allowing specific data to be entered for each filler metal size. Notice that are no Gas fields 6 for SMAW. there is another feature available This of the dynamic forms. WeldOffice prevents entry of non-relevant information and minimizes potential introduction of errors. See next page for page two data entry instructions.

Expiration Date Maintenance


Using the Welder Maintenance Log
The Welder Maintenance Log is designed to maintain a continuous history of a welders use of a process. Use the Welder Maintenance Log to document a welders use of a process and to provide evidence that qualifications have not expired. Note: These logs are created automatically when a welder is added to the Welder Profile database. Manual creation of a Welder Maintenance Log is not necessary.

3.4

The four items in this example that have 1 WPQ/WPS number, were all entered a automatically. These items are provided as soon as a Welder Performance Qualification(WPQ) has been entered. Note: Entries linked to a WPQ can not be altered or deleted.

This grouping allows WeldOffice-WPQ to calculate the current Expiration date by adding 6 months to the highest date in the group. Note: If a date other than 6 months is desired, this setting can be changed in Tools/Options.

To add an WML, click 4 icon titled entry to the job weld. on the Enter new This will bring up the Weld log entry details box.
