4.1.3. General UX & UI Enhancements

In our ongoing commitment to optimizing the user experience with the Quality Event application, we have implemented a series of enhancements aimed at elevating its interface.

Changes in this latest release include:

1. Streamlined Navigation & Structure

To enhance user experience, we have streamlined navigation to the Quality Event application, simplifying the overall platform structure. Now, although the Quality Event application remains a part of the QMS application suite, it is no longer nested under the QMS category. This change has reduced the number of steps needed to access the application and its modules.

2. Enhanced Iconography

We have also updated the icons used to represent the Quality Event application and its modules, achieving three key objectives:

• Distinct Application Identity: We have changed the Quality Event application’s icon to make it more distinguishable and align it better with its intended purpose.
• Consistent Icon Styles: To create a more cohesive visual experience both within the application and across the QMS suite, we have standardized icon styles for modules with similar functions.
  • For example, modules presenting lists, such as Quality Event List, now share the same List icon. Modules for creating new items, such as New Quality Event, use the same Add icon.
• Modern Design: As part of our design evolution, demonstrated in the above graphics, we have adopted a thinner icon style, embracing a sleeker and more modern aesthetic.

3. Improved Form Design & Layout

We have redesigned our forms to make them more intuitive and space-efficient. This includes reordering fields to ensure a logical flow, improving field labels for clarity and comprehension, and removing unnecessary elements to simplify and declutter the interface.

We have also transitioned from tabs to accordions, a change which not only enhances aesthetics and readability but also enables a more focused interaction with content. Users can now smoothly navigate through forms, progressively revealing information as needed.

*In the forms comprising the Quality Event workflow, accordions, much like the tabs before them, are dynamically shown or hidden based on relevance, ensuring that the interface remains clean and user-centric.
