The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) System allows you to maintain MSDS sheet information for hazardous items and to track which customers have received MSDS sheets and when the sheets were sent.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) of the U.S. Department of Labor stipulates that distributors must provide an MSDS sheet for hazardous items. Therefore, distributors of hazardous items must be able to do the following:
The MSDS subsystem contains these programs.
MSDS On-Line Print (SOP350), which is used to print on-line MSDS sheets, summary sheets and optional cover letters
MSDS On-Demand Print (SOP360), which is used to print MSDS sheets, cover letters and summary sheets on demand.
MSDS ID Listing (SOR705), which is used to print a list of MSDS IDs with MSDS information and an optional list of items using each MSDS ID.
MSDS History Report/Reprint (SOR785), which is used to print a history report of MSDS sheets that have been sent to customers and reprint MSDS sheets previously sent (if the MSDS on-line print process is used).
MSDS ID F/M (SOF905), which is used to maintain information for each MSDS ID.
MSDS History F/M (SOF987), which is used to maintain the historical information for MSDS sheets sent.
MSDS Cover Letter F/M (SOF986), which is used to specify and maintain an optional standard cover letter to be printed with a group of MSDS sheets.
MSDS Print Code F/M (SOF988), which is used to maintain the MSDS print codes.
MSDS Print Command F/M (SOF989), which is used to maintain the MSDS print commands for individual warehouses.
