Rejects by Phantom Items Trend

The report displays the trend of rejected items over a selected period. You can exchange the positions of the Product and workcenter dimensions and so display the trend by Item or by workcenter. To exchange the positions of the dimensions, click the double arrows in the table heading. To report, for example, on the trend by workcenter, place the workcenter dimension at the left. To report on the trend by Item, place the Item dimension at the left.

By default the report compares data for five months prior to the current month. To compare different periods, click the settings icon in the table heading and select Edit time settings. Configure the periods to compare in the Time Settings dialog.

See Time Settings.

The report displays a column chart which represents the actual number of rejected items and the planned number of rejects. A trend line represents the percentage of rejected items.

The data table displays the elements of the Item and workcenter dimensions. For each Item and workcenter, the report compares values for a selected measure over a selected number of periods.

Select from these measures:

  • Reject actual
  • Reject percentage
  • Reject plan
  • Reject variance
Note: The reject percentage is calculated from the planned quantity of Items and the actual number of rejected Items. If the actual number of rejects for a Item is unknown, then the reject percentage cannot be calculated for that Item. The report displays the reject percentage for each level of the Item hierarchy and the reject percentage for All Items. If you display only one level of the hierarchy (Purchased items, for example) and the reject percentage has not been calculated for one or more Items within that level, then the reject percentage for the displayed level will not match the reject percentage for All Items.

To compare the actual rejects with the planned rejects, and to see the reject percentage variance, click an element of the left hand dimension in the data table and and select Show in chart.

For each Item, a sparkline represents the trend of the selected measure over the selected period. If a Item is a base element, its Base Unit of Measure is displayed.
