LN Non-Conformance Reporting mobile application

Overview

The LN Non-Conformance Reporting mobile application enables you to report and review the non-conformance related to the products or processes.

Non-conformance or non-conformity is defined as the non-adherence or deviation from a specification, standard or expectation. Non-conformance is product specific when a product does not meet the specification or standard. Non-conformance is process specific when:
  • The operator does not adhere to the standard operating procedure
  • The material is not handled in a correct way
  • The material is not stored according to the approved procedure

As a best practice, non-conformance must be reported as and when identified. Non-conformance can be reported by a shop floor supervisor, a quality inspector or process auditor as part of a formal inspection of the item or processes.

The status of the Non-Conformance report can be:
  • Open
  • Submitted
  • Assigned
  • Dispositioned
  • Closed
  • Canceled
You can use the application to:
  • Create and report a non-conformance (product or process) from the location.
  • Set and modify the default settings
  • Specify or scan the lot and serial number of the item
  • Attach the image of the item or surrounding as evidence of the non-conformance
  • Review all the assigned non-conformances
  • Review all the open (non-dispositioned) non-conformances and for the specified period
  • Search all the non-conformances that are assigned or not assigned to the user
  • Report the non-conformances in the offline mode
