CCi upgrades TRACC content in line with emerging Operations and Supply Chain trends. To seamlessly move to the latest version of TRACC material, we 'map' the assessment criteria and plan actions.
Mapping is essentially the link between older TRACC components to the same component in the new version of a TRACC. This includes assessment criteria and plan action items/process steps. This enables us to transfer your history of assessments and plans over to the newer version. You will not lose your history of items that are mapped, unless the item is discontinued in the newer version. You will need to refer to the 'version upgrade guides' for this detail, or engage with your CCi representative to talk through the changes.
The following items are mapped across versions:
- Criteria level mapping - responses, evidence, comments
- Configuration mapping (rewords and sub-criteria)
- Portfolio of Evidence (PoE) mapping
- Best practice and standards mapping - items your organisation has linked at criteria level and action level
- Action item and process step mapping (target dates, responsible persons and comments)
Once mapping is completed, subscriptions to your older versions of TRACC will be switched off so that you can only view the latest version of content available on your Platform.
You will still be able to view your previous assessment history, but please note the following:
V8 Platform users
In V8, you will only be able to assess criteria on the latest version of your assessment.
If you are on the V8 Platform, please see the following article for what you will see when doing your first assessment after a content upgrade with mapping in place - What is the purpose of the Assessment Upgrade Responses button?
V7 Platform users
If you are still on the V7 Platform, you are advised to not copy any old version assessments, but instead to only use assessments from your latest version of each TRACC. Doing assessments on the older version in V7 will create issues when you migrate to the V8 Platform at a later stage.
With regards to your TRACC journey, the algorithm that calculates the TRACC maturity ratings and the Plan Progress will take mapping into account when doing all calculations - we will use only the latest responses in all calculations that are available on the TRACC Platform.
If you are on the V7 Platform, please refer to the relevant articles to find out more about your upgrade: Content Upgrades
