This activity is used to enter the quality inspection results for an inventory part. What to inspect on a specific inventory part is defined on the control plan connected to the inventory part.
Use the Enter and View Results dialog to enter (or view) the inspection results. This dialog can be accessed by clicking Enter and View Results in the Analysis Result Lines section in the Analysis Result page. The Analysis Result page can be accessed by creating an analysis in the Control Plan - Inventory or Part Lot Batch page. If at least one analysis already has been created the Analysis Result page can also be accessed by clicking Analysis Result in the Inventory Analyses page.
Before the inspection results can be entered in the Enter and View Results dialog some additional information might be necessary to specify. If the part is lot/batch tracked, and the corresponding lot/batch number has not been filled in Lot/Batch No use the List of Values (LOV) picker to select a suitable value in that field. If the part is serial tracked and Variable or Categorical data type results need to be entered the corresponding serial numbers of the parts included in the analysis must be entered. Click Enter Serial Numbers and enable Selected Serial No for the corresponding serial numbers in the Enter Serial Numbers dialog and click OK.
The inspection results are entered in the Enter and View Results dialog. If the analysis contains several data points, it is possible to navigate between them by clicking Previous and Next.
To complete the analysis result for a data point click Complete either in the Enter and View Results dialog or in the Analysis Result Lines section on the Analysis Result page. Once the line has the Complete status, the results cannot be edited.
If Real Time SPC has been activated for a data point, then Real Time SPC chart will be automatically updated and validated when the data point is set to status Complete.
When all data points for an analysis have been reported, you can change the status of the analysis result to Confirmed. Either click Confirm Registered Result in the Enter and View Results dialog or Confirm Analysis on the Analysis Result page. It is also possible to confirm analysis result from the Inventory Analyses page, by clicking Confirm Registered Result for one or multiple analyses.
To create a new control chart manually, if SPC is activated in the control plan, click Create SPC Chart in the Analysis Result Lines section on the Analysis Result page. To print a report of results for the Variable data type items, click Print Data Sheet in the Analysis Result Lines section on the Analysis Result page. To print the results of the analysis, click Print Analysis Results in the Analysis Result page.
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.
To be able to enter analysis results, an analysis for inventory must exist in the Planned status.
As a result of this activity, analysis results will be entered, completed and confirmed. Once the analysis has been confirmed, results cannot be edited.
