Numerous commercial software applications may be used as part of the
quality system (e.g., a spreadsheet or statistical package used for
quality system calculations, a graphics package used for trend analysis,
or a commercial database used for recording device history records or for
complaint management).
The extent of validation evidence needed for such software depends on the
manufacturer’s documented intended use of that software.
For example, a manufacturer who chooses not to use all the vendor-supplied
capabilities of the software only needs to validate those functions that will be
used and for which the manufacturer is dependent upon the software results
as part of production or the quality system.

General guidance for design and validation of in-house spreadsheets and other
numerical calculation programs includes the following considerations:
1. Lock all cells of a spreadsheet, except those needed by the user to input
data.

without prior written permission from Praxis is prohibited.

6. Keep a permanent record of all cell formulas when the spreadsheet has
been developed. Document all changes made to the spreadsheet and
control using a system of version numbers with documentation.

The percent Average and percent Standard Deviation results did not change
from month to month on the Aberrant Controls, Failed Run or Failed
Runs/Aberrant Controls spreadsheets. The error was due to failure to use the
current rolling 12-month formula in the spreadsheet calculations.
When a recalculation was performed, an alert level for HIV was identified.
Firm tracks complaint data on a spreadsheet that contains free form text
fields that are not standardized, resulting in an
inability to adequately trend the data.
For example,
when using complaint data for part "6090," 14 complaints are shown.
However, the spreadsheet contains several different descriptions of the
same part failure that when totaled resulted in a total count of
40 complaints related to part #6090.

Your firm’s laboratory analysts have the ability to access and modify the
formulas in the Excel spreadsheets used to calculate assay results for drug
products. Due to the unrestrictive access, there is no assurance that the
formulas in the Excel spreadsheets are accurate and valid.

At the drug facility, the investigator noticed that the use of the Excel
spreadsheets in analytical calculations are neither controlled nor protected
from modifications or deletion.
The investigator noticed that the calculation for residual solvent uses an
Excel spreadsheet that has not been qualified. We are concerned about the
data generated by your QC laboratory from non-qualified and uncontrolled
Excel spreadsheets.
