Containment requests¶

There are three ways to create a containment request:

1. Contain by file
2. Contain forward from a single item
3. Contain from genealogy level

When an item is included in a containment request, a red exclamation mark is displayed on the item tile.

Creating a Containment request by file¶

You can create a containment request by importing a previously prepared CSV file that includes the list of materials to be potentially contained. Once the file is successfully imported, the containment request will be available for download by all connected systems and can be viewed at any time by Traceability users with the appropriate roles.

To create a Containment request by file, follow the steps:

1. In the "Search" page, click "Contain By File".
   The dialog box displays the "Name" field prefilled as ContainmentRequest_<identifier>. You may optionally add a comment in the text box.
2. Browse and upload the CSV file you previously created.
3. Click "Save" to create the containment request.

4. Click "History" in the left-hand menu to view the list of containment requests, ordered by creation date. In the grid, a containment request can have one of four statuses:

   1. "In progress": The request is created until processing is complete.
   2. "Completed": The request is finalized and available to all connected systems.
   3. "Releasing": The release action has started after analysis.
   4. "Released": Items with no issues are released.

5. Select the request to view its details in the right-hand panel.

   • The "Details" tab shows information about the containment request.
   • The "Production Tracking Items" tab shows the list of items included in the containment request.
   • The "Acks Received" tab shows the acknowledgements to the containment request from external systems.
