WERCSmart Product Status


This article details how to find a product's status and what each product status means.  

Where to Find Product Status 

My Products Table 

On your Home Page, a row of statuses allows you to filter by product status. 

  • For example, clicking the 'Assessment in Progress' option will display only products currently in that status.




Monitor Progress Function

The Monitor Progress function allows you to receive notifications as your product moves through the registration process. 


To set up monitoring for your product:

  • Locate the product line.
  • Under the 'Actions' column, click on the three dots.
  • Click Monitor Progress.
    • A pop-up window will appear, prompting you to choose which retailer(s) you would like to monitor in relation to your product. 
  • Select the desired retailer(s) and then click OK.


Note: Once monitoring is enabled, the binocular icon will appear to the right of the WPS ID number on your home page. You will now receive email notifications for every action that occurs with the product as it advances through the registration process.


If you wish to stop monitoring at any time, you can do so by clicking the three dots below 'Actions' again and selecting Disable Monitoring.



Product Status and Meaning

Not Yet Submitted (Black)

You have started a registration in your WERCSmart account but haven't finished it yet. 

  • This product is in 'New' status, meaning it has not been submitted for review by the Regulatory Review team and it won't count towards your subscription until it is.


Assessment in Progress (Yellow)

You have completed all the required information for the registration and submitted the data to WERCSmart's Regulatory Review Team. 

  • They are currently reviewing the information, conducting calculations,

    comply with regulations (e.g., OSHA), and verify any documents you provided, such as the Safety Data Sheet (SDS). 


Needs Your Attention (Red)

During the assessment process, discrepancies may occur with the provided data, or the results may not match expectations.

  • These issues often require your attention and can typically be resolved by updating the data (e.g., the Flash Point).


If a product is in this status, it is 'Suspended,' and you will receive an alert or message detailing the issue and providing guidance for resolution. 


Sending to Retailers (Blue)

The Regulatory Assessment Team has finalized the assessment data, and the report for retailers is ready.

  • Retailers receive data transfers at different times based on their needs. Please allow 24 hours for your product data to be sent to the retailer's data feed.


Accepted by Retailers (Green)

Your assessments, generated from your product registration data, have been successfully received by the retailer.

  • At this point, you can take further actions, such as adding more UPCs, forwarding the same registration to additional retailers, and more. 
  • Additionally, you can update the data in the future and resubmit it for a revised assessment.
