Hi David  -  I don’t understand this statement.    Documenting a failure - does not make it a new failure.  

If it is a failure, it was always a failure.    We can’t define a new situation that fails when it didn’t before.   
 We are just documenting it now for informational value — for convenience. 

Can you help me understand this? 



By the way — a whole heartedly agree with dating Techs & Failures to help in determining when they should be reviewed.
in that case though I would suggest the date be  “LAST REVIEWED ON “  rather than when they were created.
