Creating an Item Inspection Standard

Inspection standards give inspectors guidelines to follow and help set pass/fail criteria. They can be company or industry standards that define what’s acceptable, and they connect to data fields through inspection rules.

To create an item inspection standard:

  1. In the Quality Specification Form, in the Inspections subtab, click Edit next to the specification you want to view.

  2. Click the Item Inspection Standards subtab.

  3. Click the New Item Standard Field.

  4. Select an Item record to associate with the standard.

  5. Select the Standard Field to apply to the item and inspection.

  6. Select a Data Type to associate with the standard.

    For example, Text, Boolean, or Image.

    For more information, see Data Fields.

  7. In the Standard Value field, enter a pass or fail benchmark.

    • Boolean benchmarks are true or false. For example, visible damage is expected to be false.

    • Numerical standards usually have upper and lower limits. For example, tire pressure shouldn’t go over 35 psi (35 is the standard).

  8. Click Save.
