Description:

Linking attachments and highlights in a PowerDMS assessment is required, but it’s also one of the most effective ways to guide assessors directly to the proof you want them to review. In this episode, Areaka explains how proper linking highlights the relevant proof, identifies the exact requirement in the standard, and activates the automatic scroll feature that saves assessors time during file review. She also shares a common file-building mistake she frequently sees during assessments—linking every highlight to both the standard statement and a bullet—and why that small detail can slow an entire assessment team down.
