For each severity

Column

Sets

Fix within

How long from raising to the fix-by date.

Accept instead

The longest a finding can be accepted instead of fixed, or Not allowed.

Verify actions

Whether someone else must confirm an action was done. See Verify an action.

Proof to finish

Whether a photo or document is expected on an action before it's marked done.

Interim action within

How soon an interim action must be in place (blank: not needed). See Interim actions, overdue and escalation.

The Recommended standards ask for verification and proof on Critical and High findings, and an interim action within 1 day for Critical and 7 days for High.

Changing them

Just like the Testing Plan: prepare a draft, then someone who can approve it approves it. Self-approval is allowed but recorded, unless your tenancy settings require someone else. Review them yearly; the date is on the Calendar. Every approved version is kept; use Show history to see them.
