Non-Conformance Reports (qmncm1100m000)

Use this session to view and maintain Non-Conforming Material Report (NCMR). NCMR is generated when the warehouse or quality inspection process is applicable for sales, purchase, production, assembly orders or warehouse transfers.

Note: 
  • NCMR can also be created manually.
  • To retain the traceability, the application allows you to define a parent child relationship between two NCMRs. If you use Split NCMR option,the application refers to the existing NCMR as a parent and the subsequent NCMR as a child.
  • You can also use the Split NCR option to create individual NCRs based on the requirement, for the items in quarantine.
  • You can view the transaction events related to a specific item, serial or lot combination for an inspection order, order inspection and non-conformance reports in the Item, Lot and Serial Transactions (whltc3510m000) session of Warehousing.
  • NCR functionality is applicable for repetitive manufacturing only if the item is a repetitive item.
  • NCMR can also be created for Assembly Orders using the Order Origin, ASC Production.
