Controls are resources used in FMEAs that are the methods or actions currently planned or already in place to reduce or eliminate risk. Controls can be managed via the Resource Manager.
As with any other resource:
Any changes to the control properties will be reflected in all locations where the resource is used.
If you remove a control from an FMEA, it will remain in the project unless/until an authorized user deletes it from the database.
If a control resource is not currently used in an FMEA, you can delete it via the Resource Manager. (In a secure database, this is possible only if the user a) is the project owner, b) is the control creator, or c) has the applicable "create/edit/delete resources" permission.)
For existing resources, the link at the bottom of the window indicates how many times the resource is currently being used. If you need more information, click the link or the icon to open the Dependency Viewer.
Note: Controls are always local resources. They cannot be made global. Controls in a reference project are local to that project and can't be selected for use in other projects.
For specific instructions on using controls in FMEAs, see the "Controls in FMEAs" topic in the XFMEA/RCM++/RBI documentation.
Some properties for controls can be configured via interface style settings. See Configurable Settings.
