| calibration The refurbishing of an instrument to make it fit for use. frequency The interval between two samples, expressed in the frequency unit. Explanation: A new sample of 10 pieces is drawn for every 100 pieces. In this case there will be 11 samples of 10 pieces. Example
Sample | 10 pieces
Frequency | 100 pieces
Order quantity | 1150 pieces
frequency unit The unit in which the sample size is expressed. inspection order An order used to structure the inspection of products that are purchased, produced, or sold. 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
origin An integrated module or package to which an (inspection) order is related. quality combination The conditions that determine the generation of inspection orders, and how the inspections are carried out. A quality combination links the following information: The module or package that is the origin of the quality inspections. The item or quality group to which the quality inspections apply. The quality requirements that must be met (defined in the quality ID). quality ID The code to which data is linked that is necessary to check the quality requirements of an item. Since one quality ID can be used for a group of products that require the same quality standards and tests, a quality ID can considerably reduce time. sequence The sequence number of the inspection order on the basis of which characteristics are tested on different samples. serial number A unique number generated by ERP LN to distinguish between the different measurements you can take in one sample quantity. The number of measurements is based on the test quantity. Example
Sample quantity | 100 pieces
Test quantity | 20 pieces
Explanation: You need to do 5 tests on 20 pieces to get a sample quantity of 100 pieces (100/20=5). Consequently, 5 test lines will be generated, each with a unique serial number. test group The definition of how often you take samples to test an order quantity, and what the sample size is. variable A code that holds the value of a aspect or characteristic. This value will be used in the expression of an algorithm to calculate the value of another aspect or characteristic. |
