About State Management in LOPA

The following states are configured for the LOPA family:

Planning: Indicates that the analysis is in the Planning state. You can modify or delete a LOPA and its related records (i.e., Conditional Modifiers and Safeguards) only if the LOPA is in Planning state. Additionally, if you have linked the LOPA to a Consequence in the Hazards Analysis, then to add or modify a Safeguard, the Hazards Analysis with which the Consequence is associated must also be in the Planning State.
Active: Indicates that the LOPA is active.
Review: Indicates that the LOPA has been sent for review.
Pending Approval: Indicates that the LOPA has been reviewed and is awaiting approval.
Complete: Indicates that the analysis is approved. After the state of the LOPA is changed to Complete:
- A LOPA Revision is created, which stores a snapshot of the LOPA when the state was changed to Complete.
- The number of revisions for the LOPA is incremented by one, and appears in the upper-right corner of the LOPA Summary workspace.
- If the LOPA is linked to a LOPA Assessment in an Instrumented Function, then the values in the associated LOPA Assessment are updated based on the values in the LOPA.

The following table lists the baseline states, the operation that can be performed on each state, and the State Configuration Roles assigned to each state:
