Description
This scope item describes the management of defects and nonconformances. The quality technician creates a defect record and if required, adds a picture that documents the defect. The quality engineer further processes the defect record by documenting immediate, corrective, and preventive actions. After defect resolution, the quality engineer closes the defect record.
In addition to general defect category, a new defect category is introduced which can be used to handle defects which occur during production. That is, the assignment of production order, material, plant and defective quantity has been enabled.
Furthermore, the quality engineer monitors and analyzes defect records from various sources (for example, defects detected during quality inspection or manually created defects) and deduces common preventive actions.
If required, the quality technician creates additional, manual inspection lots for the available inspection origins to perform additional quality inspections. After inspection results have been captured, the quality engineer makes a usage decision to close the manual inspection process.
