FOR QUALITY AND DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT TEAMS
IFU revision management & controlled publishing
Manage instructions for use through preparation, independent review, approval and publication. Check products, audiences, markets and language coverage with each revision, while keeping versions and decision records connected to the same product.

Map the new document version to its products. Define document type, audience, market and language coverage. Check for missing language versions before publication.
Reviewers assess content and scope. Separate preparation from review and keep your team’s decision process recorded.
The authorised team makes the publication decision. Connect the published version to product access and track previous versions and decision history through the same record.
IFU revision management is more than uploading a new PDF. Separate the current publication from version history by product, document type, audience, country and file language. Finding an earlier version in a portal does not mean it is the current IFU for use today.
In this fictional example, the same product’s English IFU is published as Rev. A and then Rev. B for the same audience and country scope. This is not a customer record or a country-specific regulatory rule.
Rev. A appears in the current document list for the selected scope. Check product reference, document type, file language and revision together.
The later publication, Rev. B, appears in the current list for the same document and language; Rev. A is separated as a previous version in history. The product QR can continue to provide access if its link to the same product record is retained.
Rev. B is removed from the current published list; history shows its withdrawn status and reason. Rev. A does not automatically become current again. If no current document is available, follow the manufacturer’s support process.
No. A previous version is outside the current list because a newer publication exists. Withdrawal is a separate publication status. The portal distinguishes these records in history with different labels and access behaviour.
Not automatically. eIFU Systems checks the publication status of the latest document/language record for the selected scope; it does not automatically reinstate an earlier version as current. Your authorised team must assess the publication decision and the resulting portal display.
If the QR points to the same product record rather than a PDF file and the product link is retained, a new version can be offered through the same product access. Test the domain, link, product mapping and relevant language/scope publication after release.
No. Changing portal access does not remove a file a user previously saved on their device. Handle earlier copies and any required user communication separately within the manufacturer’s document and safety processes.

Discuss your revision and version history scope ↗A product can be associated with several document types and language versions. Assess a new file version together with its publication scope: products, intended audiences, markets and languages. Previous versions and decision records help your team follow changes over time.
Connect QR links to product access. When a new version is published, visitors can reach the relevant documents through the same product link. Check product mappings and the version visible in the portal after publication. Manage revision follows and user requests alongside your document workflow.

Preparation, independent review and the publication decision are separate steps. Your team completes review and approval using the appropriate permissions.
Language versions and market coverage are assessed by product and document. Uploading a file in one language does not establish that the other language versions are ready.
The permanent product link is managed separately from the document file. A new revision can be available through the same product link. Check mappings and document access after publication.
No. The platform provides tools for controlled publication and traceability. Your quality and regulatory teams remain responsible for content accuracy, product eligibility and market obligations.
