Procedure

Performance Qualification with the PLA 3.0 Validation Package is a three-step process.

In the first two steps, you prepare the qualification. You create a Performance Qualification definition document (PQ definition document) with a dataset verified by you and export it as a Performance Qualification package (PQ package). In the third step, you use your PQ package to execute the PQ and verify the mathematical calculations at your workstation.

Important: In contrast to the OQ process, the PQ process always verifies the whole result set of a calculation.
