Supply Chain › Reachable by link

Item · Quality

When it is inspected, against what, and what happens when it fails. The flags here are what turn a receipt into quarantine.

Where to find it

List · 10 columns · 26 fields on its form · 1 of them required

The form

What is asked for when a record is created here. Required fields are marked; a choice drawn from a configuration list is one an administrator can extend without a release.

Field	Type	Choices	Notes
Item required	Choice	Looked up from existing records
Applies in	Choice	Looked up from existing records	Leave empty and it applies company-wide. Choose a business unit and it overrides the company-wide row there — which is how one item behaves differently in two plants.

On completion	Yes or no
On return	Yes or no
Sampling plan	Choice	none, 100_percent, aql, skip_lot, first_article, periodic

Specification	Text
Drawing	Text
Test method	Text
When it fails	Choice	quarantine, reject, rework, use_as_is, scrap, return_to_supplier
Certificate of analysis required	Yes or no
Certificate of conformance required	Yes or no
Mill test report required	Yes or no
Regulated	Yes or no

Retest every (days)	Number
On expiry	Choice	block, warn, retest, scrap
Criticality	Choice	critical, major, minor, cosmetic
First article inspection	Yes or no
PPAP required	Yes or no
In force from	Date		The date this version of the row takes effect. Leave it as today unless you are dating a change ahead.
Until	Date		Leave empty for open-ended. Setting it ends this version rather than deleting it.

The rules that apply here

Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:

Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
Creating a record — required fields, where choices come from, and how the number is allocated.
Importing a spreadsheet — this screen accepts one, and it runs through the same rules as typing.
