Performing Ad Hoc Inspections: Example

This example demonstrates how to:

  • Create an inventory inspection

  • Collect inspection data

Scenario

Consider a scenario where there is an inspection plan to associate with the inventory inspection. This means, during inspection, you will evaluate the inspection results against the inspection characteristics in a plan.

Prerequisites

  • Create the required inspection characteristics and characteristic groups (optional)

  • An inspection plan that:

    • Is in "Approved" status

    • Is valid for the inspection date, that is the inspection date is between the start and end date of the plan

    • Matches the inspection details

    • Includes inspection characteristics or characteristic groups or both needed for the inspection

Creating an Inventory Inspection

  1. Open the Inspections page from either the Quality Management landing page or Work Execution landing page.

  2. Enter the inspection details: organization, type, item, subinventory, locator, and the quantity to inspect.

  3. Based on the inventory details, if there are one or more plans with same values, they automatically appear in the Inspection Plan drop-down list. Select the applicable plan and click OK. The Enter Inspection Details page opens.

Note: It is not mandatory to select a plan. You can proceed even without selecting a plan.

Collecting Inspection Results

On the Enter Inspection Details page, for each unit, enter the inspection result for each characteristic, and click Save. As soon as you enter results for all the units, the disposition status changes from Pending to Complete. If the inspection results are within the specification limits, the samples or serials are automatically accepted. Similarly, the samples or serials outside the specification limits are automatically rejected.

Note: If you have enabled Electronic Signatures and Electronic Records, you can submit the inspection disposition for approval. An E-Signature page opens where you can view the status of the approval process of the Inspection Disposition.
