Why doesn't my approved deviation appear as approved in the shop floor tracking?
Q.  Why doesn't my approved deviation appear as approved in the shop floor tracking?

A.  Because deviations are temporary, they must have an expiration date before they will appear as approved in SFT (Shop Floor Tracking).   Ensure that the deviation has an effectivity and expiration date and the deviation status is Approved before checking in SFT.   Once the status of the deviation has been changed from Approved to Complete the deviation will no longer appear in SFT. 
 
Deviation is for Reference only, it allows the users to have documentation as to why the temp change to the product was made, etc. ..  but, if you are truly changing the product, then it should require a Revision change and there for be an ECO or BCN not a Deviation
