      <Paragraph>A quality ID is the link
		between the item that needs to be inspected and the master data that determines
		what is tested for an item. Using a quality ID prevents you to define or adjust
		the master data for each new inspection. Moreover, a quality ID enables you to
		use one characteristic multiple times with each time different limits.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>A very important session in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/qm" role="package">Quality</GUIRef> is the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/qm/ptc/qmptc0111m000" role="session">Testing Combinations (qmptc0111m000)</GUIRef> session. In this session you link quality
		IDs to an origin. These quality combinations are the primary input for the
		creation of inspection orders and consist of three parts:</Paragraph>
      <List>
         <ListItem>The module from which inspections originate</ListItem>
         <ListItem>The item or quality group that applies to the combination</ListItem>
         <ListItem>The quality ID that applies to the combination</ListItem>
      </List>
