Enter Analysis Results for Shop Order

Explanation

Use this activity to enter analysis results for a shop order. You can change the status of a data point to Complete. Only data points with this status are considered when creating control charts or calculating capability indices. Once the data point has this status, the results cannot be edited. You can also create a new control chart if SPC is activated in the control plan.

When all data points for an analysis have been reported, you can change the status to Confirmed. Multiple analyses can be confirmed in the Analysis window. Once an analysis has been confirmed, the results cannot be edited. The data points will be sorted according to the selected Sort By option.

This activity contains a Security Checkpoint which can be activated by an administrator.
