Standard Test Procedure Characteristics (qmptc0115m000)
Use this session to define the quality requirements for characteristics. The characteristics defined for a quality ID apply to all the quality combinations to which the quality ID is assigned.
In the details session, you link multiple characteristics or aspect/characteristics combinations to a quality ID. You can add properties for a quality ID like test, norm, limits method, and effective date.
Field Information
- Standard Test Procedure
-
quality ID
- Version
-
The version number of the standard test procedure. If you duplicate the standard test procedure, LN assigns a new version number.
- Aspect
-
aspect
- Characteristic
-
characteristic
- Reference Designator
-
The location where the item component can be inserted. This value is used to differentiate between two test group lines with the same data.
- Origin Order Sequence
-
A sequence number that allows you to define the same characteristic multiple times, but each time with a different expiry date.
- Characteristic Type
-
The following types of characteristics are available: Characteristic Type.
- Method
-
The following methods are available: Method.
- Characteristic Unit
-
characteristic unit
- Characteristic for Algorithm
-
If this check box is selected, this characteristic can be used as a variable or as a constant in the algorithm of another characteristic.
- Test
-
The test that is used by default for measuring the characteristic.
- Fixed Characteristic Value
-
A characteristic value that is determined once.
The fixed characteristic value is compared to the test results in the Inspection Order Test Data (qmptc1115m000) session.
Note: This field only applies if the Method field is set to Fixed. If the Characteristic Type field is set to Integer, the Fixed Characteristic Value field is rounded off to the nearest integer.User entry Rounded value 5 11 4 10 6 11 - Algorithm
-
algorithm
Note: You can use the Algorithm field, only if you entered Algorithm in the Method field. - Option Set
-
Note: You can enter an option set if the Characteristic Type field is on Option.
- Effective Date
-
The date on which you can perform a test to inspect items.
- Expiry Date
-
The date on which you can no longer perform a test to inspect the characteristic for this quality ID.
- Characteristic Standard
-
The standard normally used for characteristics.
For example, a DIN standard
- Limit Type
-
The type of value that is measured.
Allowed values
- Tolerance
-
The limits are entered as percentages of the norm. You can enter the norm in the Norm field.
- Value
-
The limits are entered as values in the Upper Limit field and the Lower Limit field.
- Value Type
-
The value type of the characteristic.
Allowed values
- Norm
- Nominal
- Not Applicable
- Chart Name
-
The code of the chart name to which the nominal values are applicable.
Note: This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. - Chart Type
-
The code of the chart type for which the nominal values are applicable.
Note: This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. - Tolerance Standard
-
The code of the tolerance standard linked to the nominal value range.
Note: This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. - Nominal Value
-
The nominal value of the characteristic, expressed in the characteristic unit.
Note:This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field.
You can specify the value in this field, if the Characteristic Type field is set to Option and this value is not used to determine the inspection result.
In case of qualitative test entry ( Result Type is Qualitative for the related inspection order line), this value is used only to display the information and is not used to determine the inspection results.
- Norm
-
The norm is the desired quality for this characteristic, expressed in the characteristic unit.
Note:This field does not apply if you enter Fixed in the Method field or Option in the Characteristic Type field.
You can specify the value in this field, if the Characteristic Type field is set to Option and this value is not used to determine the inspection result.
In case of qualitative test entry ( Result Type is Qualitative for the related inspection order line), this value is used only to display the information and is not used to determine the inspection results.
- Upper Limit
-
Type in the highest characteristic value, expressed in the characteristic unit, for which the quality is acceptable.
Note:The Upper Limit field must be greater than or equal to the value in the Norm field.
You can specify the value in this field, if the Characteristic Type field is set to Option and this value is not used to determine the inspection result.
In case of qualitative test entry ( Result Type is Qualitative for the related inspection order line), this value is used only to display the information and is not used to determine the inspection results.
- Lower Limit
-
Type in the lowest characteristic value, expressed in the characteristic unit, for which the quality is acceptable.
Note:The Lower Limit field must be greater than or equal to the value in the Norm field.
You can specify the value in this field, if the Characteristic Type field is set to Option and this value is not used to determine the inspection result.
In case of qualitative test entry ( Result Type is Qualitative for the related inspection order line), this value is used only to display the information and is not used to determine the inspection results.
- Upper Tolerance
-
Type in the maximum percentage that a value can be higher than the norm in the Norm field.
- Lower Tolerance
-
Type in the percentage that a value can be lower than the norm in the Norm field.
