Warning: The Special Menu option is enabled even if, based upon the move transaction information entered, the collection triggers conditions for this collection plan are not met.

In fact, based upon the transaction information entered, quality results entry may be required. See: Mandatory Data Collection.

Background data collection occurs automatically if valid background collection plans are found when you save move transactions. The Enter Quality Results window is not displayed during background collection. See: Background Data Collection.

Prerequisites

   Perform a move transaction but do not save your work. See: Performing Move Transactions

   To enter quality data for move transactions:

1. Before saving your work, choose Enter Quality Results from the Special Menu. The Enter Quality Results window appears.

Attention: If you attempt to save a move transaction and the system find one or more mandatory collection plans, you must enter quality results before proceeding. Mandatory collection plans are those that are associated with the Move Transaction collection transaction and for which all collection triggers are evaluated as true.

2. Select a collection plan. The Enter Quality Results window appears. (If there is only one is it defaulted?)

You can select any collection plan that is associated with and enabled for the Move Transaction collection transaction.

   To find and assign specifications:

• If the selected collection plan has been associated with the customer or suppler specification type, the Find Specifications window automatically appears. If it is associated with the item specification type, the assembly item being moved is used to derive the specification. If no specification for that item can be found, the system searches for a specification based on the item's category. The default category set you defined using the QA:Quality Category Set profile option is used to determine the item category. See: QA:Quality Category Set.

If the collection plan is not associated with a specification type, You can optionally invoke the Find Specifications window using the Find Specs button from the Enter Quality Results window. See: Finding Specifications During Transactional Data Collection.

The Enter Quality Results window reappears after you select a specification or cancel selection.

   To enter quality results:

1. In the Results region of the Enter Quality Results window, enter one or more records.

If the collection plan selected requires mandatory data collection, you must enter quality results. You cannot save the move transaction until you do so. If data collection is not mandatory, you can skip quality data entry by choosing Cancel.

Depending on the collection plan and its elements, you can use several mechanisms to speed data entry.

Default value: Default values, if defined, are automatically displayed. They can be overridden. See: Default Value Assignment Rules.

Lists of Values: You can choose results values from a list of values if defined. See: Defining Collection Plan Element Values and Modifying a List.

Duplication: You can duplicate fields and records. Duplicated records and fields can be changed as required. See: Duplicating Data From a Previous Record.

Attention: The Prompts entered when defining the collection elements are displayed as the column headings.

You must enter quality data for mandatory collection plan elements. See: Context Element Dependencies.

2. Save your work. See: Saving Your Work.

If you save your work using Save and Proceed, the current results are cleared and the Collection Number counter is incremented. You can continue to enter results for the same collection plan and, if assigned, specification.
