| # Inspection Order - Lines (qmptc1101m000) Use this session to maintain inspection order lines. For each combination of an aspect and a characteristic, an inspection line is available. The data related to the characteristic can be changed for this specific inspection order. Tabs General Details about the characteristic. Test Data Details about the method of testing. Note You cannot modify a record if the test data of the line already exists. If the order line status is set to Completed no new lines can be added for this origin order. Related topics Order inspections Inspection Order An order used to structure the inspection of products that are purchased, produced, or sold. Position The position number on the order to which the inspection order is linked. This can be the position number of the sales order line, the position number of the purchase order line, or the position number in the BOM. Order Line Status The order line status indicates the current status of the inspection line. The status is changed in several sessions: Inspection Order - Lines (qmptc1101m000) (free) Print Inspection Orders (qmptc1400m000) (printed) Sample - Test Data by Characteristic (qmptc1115m000) (active) Complete and Process Inspection Orders (qmptc1202m000) (completed) Aspect aspects Characteristic characteristic Characteristic Type The type of value that is measured. Characteristic Unit algorithm Note You can use the Algorithm field, only if you enter Algorithm in the Method field. Enter the name of the algorithm which will calculate the characteristic. Characteristic for Algorithm If this check box is selected, this characteristic can be used as a variable or as a constant in the algorithm of another characteristic. Option Set A group of possible values of a characteristic. For each value (option) you can indicate whether it is acceptable or not. The options blue and red form an option set Example
Characteristic | pH value
Test | Litmus test
Options | blue = acceptable
red = not acceptable
Note You can enter an option set if the Characteristic Type field is on Option. Method The type of characteristic value or the way in which the characteristic value is calculated. Algorithm algorithm Note You can use the Algorithm field, only if you enter Algorithm in the Method field. Enter the name of the algorithm which will calculate the characteristic. Actual Start Date The date on which the first data is entered for the inspection order line. This date is updated in the Sample - Test Data by Characteristic (qmptc1115m000) session and cannot be modified. Actual Completion Date The date on which the inspection is reported as completed. This date is updated in the Complete and Process Inspection Orders (qmptc1202m000) session, and cannot be modified. Test An examination or check done on a characteristic. You can link one or more tests to a characteristic. Test Area test areas Destructive Test If this check box is selected, the test is destructive and the item cannot be used after testing. Result Type The type of result reported to the user. Test Unit test unit Note The characteristic unit is the default value. The test unit and the characteristic unit must have the same physical quantity. Test Standard The standard normally used for the test. For example, a DIN standard. Skill skill Employee The person that performs the test on this characteristic. Instrument A tool that is used during quality tests to measure particular characteristics of an item. Example
Instrument | acidimeter
Characteristic | pH value
Instrument Group The code of the instrument group. The group of instruments with similar characteristics. Description The description or name of the code. Instrument Number The number of the instrument that can be used to trace the instrument. Description The description or name of the code. Fixed Characteristic Value A characteristic value that is determined once. A characteristic value that is determined once. Note The fixed characteristic value is compared to the test results entered in Sample - Test Data by Characteristic (qmptc1115m000) session. This field only applies if the Method field is set to Fixed. If the Characteristic Type field is set to Integer, the Fixed Characteristic Value field is rounded off to the nearest integer. Note
Example
User entry | Rounded value
5 | 11
4 | 10
6 | 11
Characteristic Standard The standard normally used for characteristics. For example, a DIN standard Value Type The value type of the characteristic. Allowed values Value Type Chart Name The code of the chart name to which the nominal values are applicable. Note This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. Chart Type The code of the chart type for which the nominal values are applicable. Note This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. Tolerance Standard The code of the tolerance standard linked to the nominal value range. Note This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. Nominal Value The nominal value of the characteristic, expressed in the characteristic unit. Note This field is available only if the Nominal option is selected in the Value Type field. Norm The norm is the desired quality for this characteristic, expressed in the characteristic unit. Note This field does not apply if you enter Fixed in the Method field or Option in the Characteristic Type field. Upper Limit Type in the highest characteristic value, expressed in the characteristic unit, for which the quality is acceptable. Note The Upper Limit field must be greater than or equal to the value in the Norm field. Lower Limit Type in the lowest characteristic value, expressed in the characteristic unit, for which the quality is acceptable. Note The Lower Limit field must be greater than or equal to the value in the Norm field. Validate Algorithm Checks the validity of the order specific algorithm data.
