Description
This scope item manages quality inspection in discrete manufacturing processes. Quality inspection activities are relevant during the production process or at goods receipt from production. At goods receipt, the material is posted to quality inspection stock and an inspection lot is created based on an inspection plan. The quality technician records the inspection results and the quality engineer makes a usage decision (acceptance or rejection of the material) and posts the material to unrestricted or blocked stock or to scrap. During the production process, a quality operation within the production order triggers the quality inspection. The quality technician records the inspection results for inspection points. Based on the inspection point valuation, the quality operation is confirmed with the respective yield and scrap amounts and the inspection lot is closed by making a usage decision. In case of rejected characteristics, a defect is automatically recorded.
