Order inspections

Order Inspections comprises of inspection orders that are used to structure the inspection of products that are purchased, produced, transferred, or sold. For products in inventory, a storage inspection order instead of a standard inspection order is used.

The standard inspection process:

  1. Inspection orders are created automatically by means of predefined testing combinations, but you can also manually add, delete, or maintain inspection orders based on the origin of the order (refer to the Order Inspections (qmptc1120m000) session).
  2. For each inspection order, you can create different samples with different sample sizes and different dates and time in the Inspection Order Samples (qmptc1110m000) session. LN checks if the total of all samples matches the sample size.
  3. Enter the test data in the Inspection Order Test Data (qmptc1115m000) session (by characteristic). The session in which you enter the test data depends on the settings in the Quality Management Parameters (qmptc0100m000) session. When the test data is entered, the LN generates the overall results defined for that specific characteristic.
  4. Complete Inspection collectively by order, origin, or storage using the Complete/Process Order Inspections (qmptc1202m000) session. If an inspection order is completed, LN checks if the test data is specified. If not, the inspection order cannot be completed.
  5. Inspection orders can be processed by inspection order, by origin, and by storage inspection. LN determines the pass and the fail pieces in the sample size. Based on this evaluation, LN calculates the actual accepted and rejected quantities. These accepted and rejected quantities are compared with the acceptable quality level (AQL) specified in the Test Groups (qmptc0136m000) details session. If the percentage of accepted quantity is less than the AQL, the entire order or lot is rejected. In case of continuous sampling, the part of the order displayed in the Frequency field is rejected.

If an algorithm is defined for a characteristic, this algorithm is calculated during inspection. Each algorithm is calculated only when the variables (characteristics) required for that algorithm are specified.
