What to do

AWACS interpretation · not source language

What to review: Review portal contact directory management procedures to ensure institutional quality control recipients are entered on individual rows and mapped to the consolidated contact classification.

QC implications

  • Quality control should verify that directory listings in eMAQCS plus are maintained directly, with additional recipients entered on separate rows following the removal of secondary copy fields.
  • Quality control should ensure communications align with the consolidated single quality control recipient classification rather than separate order and review categories.
