How to add default tools or skills to a loss type in Kaizen setting?

Written by Angad Singh

You can attach default tools (or skills) to a loss type. When a Kaizen deals with that loss, these are the tools expected to be used. This article shows you how to add them.

Step 1: Open Loss Management

Go to the Loss Management dashboard in Kaizen Settings. For help, see Navigating inside the parent menu in Kaizen module.


Step 2: Select the loss

Click the loss you want to add a tool to. The Default Tools side window opens on the right of the dashboard.


Step 3: Open the tools list

The Default Tools window shows:

  • Basic information about the loss: Loss Type and Loss Category

  • A drop-down menu for searching tools

  • The list of tools already attached to the loss

Click the drop-down arrow in the Search Default Tools box.


Step 4: Choose the tool

Click the tool you want to add. Scroll down if needed.

Note: The drop-down lists every tool in your facility, the same list as the Tool Management dashboard. If the tool you need is not listed, create it in Tool Management. It then becomes available here automatically.


Step 5: Check the list

The tool you chose appears in the list of attached tools.
