Order Specific Inspections (qmptc0150m000)

Use this session to display order-specific inspection orders for an origin order. Inspection orders are based on the master data, but in this session the master data can be customized for a particular item. The customized data cannot be influenced by changes in the master data.

In the details session, you can add and/or modify order-specific inspection orders for an origin order.

If you select Order Lines from the appropriate menu, you can display and maintain the inspection order lines for each inspection order.

 

Origin

An integrated module or package to which an (inspection) order is related.

Position

The number of the order line to which the inspection order applies. This can be the position of the sales order line, the position of the purchase order line, or the position of the estimated materials.

Operation

One of a series of steps in a routing that are carried out successively to produce an item.

The following data is collected during a routing operation:

  • The task. For example, sawing.
  • The machine used to carry out the task (optional). For example, sawing machine.
  • The place where the task is carried out (work center). For example, woodwork.
  • The number of employees required to carry out the task.

This data is used to compute order lead times, to plan production orders and to calculate standard cost.

A quality inspection must take place, during or after this operation.

Inventory Unit

The unit in which the inventory is recorded.

Item

The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or which exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The examples of nonphysical items:

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
Inspection Sequence

The sequence number of the order. For each sequence, one or more samples are drawn to test the characteristics.

Standard Test Procedure

The code to which data is linked that is necessary to check the quality requirements of an item. Since one standard test procedure can be used for a group of products that require the same quality standards and tests, a standard test procedure can considerably reduce time.

Version

The version number of the standard test procedure. When you modify a standard test procedure, LN assigns a new version number.

Test Group

The definition of how often you take samples to test an order quantity, and what the sample size is.

Test Type

Specification of the way in which the samples are taken from the order quantity.

Unit

The unit in which the frequency is expressed.

Frequency

The interval between two samples, expressed in the frequency unit.

Explanation: A new sample of 10 pieces is drawn for every 100 pieces. In this case there will be 11 samples of 10 pieces.

Example
Sample10 pieces
Frequency100 pieces
Order quantity1150 pieces

 

Percentage

The sample size, expressed in a percentage of the order quantity.

Sample Unit

The unit in which the sample is expressed.

If the sample size is expressed as a percentage, LN will use the inventory unit of the item.

Note

The sample unit and the inventory unit of the item do not have to be Identical. However, when they are not identical a correct conversion factor is essential.

Sample Size

The total quantity of samples from the order quantity to be tested, expressed in the unit of the sample size. The sample size can be entered as a fixed quantity or as a percentage of either the order quantity or the frequency (if you selected Continuous Sampling as test type).

Acceptable Quality Level

The maximum percentage of a test sample that can be rejected for the item quantity to be approved. For example, if the specified Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) is 20%, ERP LN approves the item quantity only if the rejected quantity is less than or equal to 20%.
