Notes
1. The purpose of an Entry-Process is to help to avoid failed (or uneconomic or time wasting) execution of the main task. We need to Work to remove any Entry-Condition failures. Otherwise, waiving or ignoring failed Entry-Conditions is a possibility, with determinable risks.
2. When referring to the SQC Entry-Process (or any other specific named Entry-Process), capitals may be used, to distinguish it from the basic “entry” Concept, which applies to all Processes.
Abbreviation [[Entry-Process *057]: “E” ~lt~- IBM convention originated by Ron Radice/Watts Humphrey. (Abbreviation for a Process control cycle is ETVX or ETX: “Entry Task Validation eXit”.)
