One serial.
The whole story.
Type a record number — or a serial, job, or reference number — and QFormance walks the connected graph across every module. The NCR, the meeting where it was discussed, the actions it spawned, the audit that caught it, the product and supplier behind it — one expandable, exportable tree.

Two ways in. One graph out.
Start from a specific record, or from a number that shows up on many records at once. Either way you get the same connected tree.
By record number
Type a record number and trace outward from it — the classic single-thread investigation.
- 1Enter NCR-, MOC-, AUD-, MTG-, RISK-, EX-, JHA-, or FMEA-
- 2The record becomes the root of the tree
- 3Everything it links to fans out beneath it
- 4Follow record → record → record to any depth
By shared reference
Type an exact reference, serial, or job number and find every record across every module that carries it.
- 1Enter a serial / job / reference number
- 2Every record that shares it becomes a seed
- 3Each seed opens into its own connected tree
- 4See the full footprint of one physical thing
Grouped, expandable, and clickable end to end.
- Module groups
Under every record, its connections group by module — Non-Conformances, Meetings, Audits, and so on — each with a count. No wall of undifferentiated links.
- Expandable records
Linked records are expandable nodes: open one and its own connections fan out. Small traces open fully; large ones start collapsed at the module level so they stay legible.
- Hyperlinked leaves
Products, suppliers, clients, and linked documents appear as leaves — they don't expand further, but every one links straight to its detail page.
- Actions & the overdue flag
Actions raised against a record hang beneath it. An open action past its due date is flagged inline so nothing that's slipping hides in the tree.

Records in trace

The follow-up work, summed up front.
Above the tree, four cards roll up every action in the trace: open, closed, and overdue counts, plus a total record count with a per-module breakdown. You see whether the thread is still live before you read a single node.
A created-date filter bounds which records the trace pulls in — defaulting to the last 12 months, with 3 / 6 / 12 / 24-month presets, an all-time option, and a custom range. A sprawling history stays readable; a narrow window keeps the export tight.
Hand an inspector the whole thread.
Export the trace and it prints fully expanded — every node open, regardless of how you left it on screen — behind a header that records the query, the mode, the created window, who traced it, and when. Drop it in the audit file as evidence that a record's connections were reviewed end to end.
Fully expanded
The printed tree opens every record and group, so nothing hides in a collapsed node when it reaches an inspector.
Traced-by header
Query, mode, date window, the person who ran it, and a UTC timestamp — the provenance an auditor asks for.
Rollup on the page
Record count and open / closed / overdue action totals print alongside the tree for a one-glance summary.
Directional, read-only, and permission-scoped.
Trace Map is a view over links that already exist. It doesn't create, edit, or delete anything — and it shows you nothing you couldn't already open yourself.
Outgoing links
The tree follows links in the direction they were drawn — from the source record outward. A record you sourced a link from appears under it; the reverse direction isn't walked, so the thread stays directional and finite.
Leaves link out, don't expand
Products, suppliers, clients, and linked documents are endpoints. They're hyperlinked so you can jump to them, but the trace doesn't keep walking through them into unrelated records.
Read-only, RLS-scoped
Every query runs as you. If your permissions don't reach a record, it simply doesn't appear in the trace — the map never becomes a back door around access control.
