Enter Analysis Results for Purchase Order
Explanation
This activity is used to enter analysis results for a purchase order.
This activity allows you to record the measure quality results against the
quality test plan (Control Plan) for a purchase order receipt.
You can change the status of a data point to Complete. Only data points in
Complete 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 of the analysis to
Confirmed.
Once an analysis has been confirmed, the results cannot be edited.
This activity contains a Security Checkpoint which can be activated by an
administrator. With an activated security checkpoint on a function you will have
to authenticate yourself again in order to fulfill the function. Additionally,
whenever a security checkpoint is successfully passed a security checkpoint log
is written, creating an audit trail of what is done.
Prerequisites
This activity has the following prerequisites:
- An analysis must have been created in the receipt function.
- An analysis
must exist in the Planned status.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- Results can be used in the creation of various IFS/Quality Management
charts.
- When a double sampling plan is used and the first sample was neither
accepted nor rejected, another sample is needed and a new analysis is
created.
- Switching score for switching to reduced inspection and qualification
score for skip-lot sampling will be calculated after confirming results.
