Welcome to Qualio!
This is your first step to learning your new cloud-based Quality Management System (e-QMS). This guide will introduce you to Qualio as well as detail what first steps to take as a new user.
First, take a minute to watch the Video Guide below so you can better understand your role and what features you’ll be able to see and use as a Basic user.
Step 1: Account Setup
When you are added as a user, you’ll receive an email inviting you to set up your Qualio account. Click the link in the email. Next, complete the simple form:
Your name (as you want it displayed in Qualio)
Your company email address
A new password (must contain at least eight characters, one uppercase letter, and one numeral). This password will be part of your digital signature.
Step 2: Log In to Qualio
Open a web browser and go to app.qualio.com. If Single Sign-On is enabled for your organization, sign in with SSO/SAML. Otherwise, use your newly created password to log in.
If you’ve forgotten your password, use the Forgot Password? link.
Before moving onto Step 3, bookmark app.qualio.com for quick access next time!
Step 3: Take a Look Around
Now it’s time to explore the different features of your e-QMS.
Dashboard: Your dashboard is a quick way to see your outstanding actions. These could be training that needs to be completed, or Open events and event tasks.
Org Selection: From this dropdown, you can select to work in your sandbox or production environment.
Settings: Update your personal Account Settings like Timezone. Also where you are alerted to product changes.
Support & Help: You can get help by clicking the question mark button. This will give you access to our Help and Support centers. We’re always available to answer your questions, provide support and give advice.
Documents, Training, & Events: We’ll discuss these in greater detail below.
Note: If you logged into Qualio for the first time using Single Sign On (SSO), click the gear icon to navigate to Your Account Settings and set your timezone.
Step 4: Explore the Documents Library
Qualio provides a digital repository for your entire documentation stack. Your organization’s documents are standardized with templates, while compliance is automated with lifecycle management and e-signatures.
The Documents Library displays all currently effective documents for your organization. Because this can be an overwhelming list of documents, use the Tag filter or search bar to look for specific documents.
Step 5: Explore Your Training Overview
With Qualio’s e-QMS, admins can easily assign training based on roles and responsibilities, so you may already have training assigned to you! Automatic emails and reminders will be sent to users when a document is ready for training, all in an effort to ensure organizations stay compliant.
To complete training:
Click the item from the Training tab
Thoroughly read the entire document
Complete the assessment
Lastly, signoff using your email and Qualio password as your digital signature

Step 6: Explore Events
Initial access to the Events feature must be enabled by a Qualio Admin using these steps: Manage User Permissions
Because quality teams need established and controlled procedures for detecting and stamping out defects and weaknesses, the Events module allows you to:
Log newly identified quality events
Complete actions to resolve events
Assign actions to other team members to complete
And sign-off team member actions
When you click Events, you'll be directed to a page displaying all open events and available filters. (Events can also be quick-created from the Dashboard.)
