| # Inspection Order - Samples (qmptc2110m000) Use this session to maintain samples. After a storage inspection order has been created, but before the inspection can be carried out, you must draw a sample which is representative of the entire inventory of an item. You can draw more than one sample, but the total quantity of these samples cannot exceed the sample size which was specified for that inspection order in the Test Groups (qmptc0136m000) session. To complete an inspection order the total sample quantity must equal the sample size. After you have been set up the samples, use the following sessions to finalize the inspection order: Sample - Test Data by Characteristic (qmptc1115m000) or Sample - Test Data by Serial Number (qmptc1116m000) Complete and Process Inspection Orders (qmptc1202m000) Process Inspection Orders (qmptc1204m000) Related topics Storage inspections Inspection Order An order used to structure the inspection of products that are purchased, produced, or sold. Maximum Size The maximum size of the sample quantity depends on the test type. 100 % or Single Sampling: Maximum Size = " Sample Size " Continuous Sampling: Maximum Size = ( Order Quantity/ Frequency) x Sample Size The sample of continuous sampling is equal to the sample size. Total Quantity The total quantity of all samples. In the end, the quantity must equal the sample size. Item In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants. You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The following are examples of nonphysical items: Cost items (for example, electricity) Service items Subcontracting services List items (menus/options) Sequence The sequence number of the inspection order on the basis of which characteristics are tested on different samples. Sample A small quantity that is drawn from the total (order) quantity and which represents the order quantity's quality. Warehouse A place for storing goods. For each warehouse, you can enter address data and data relating to its type. Location A distinct place in a warehouse where goods are stored. A warehouse can be divided into locations to manage the available space, and to locate the stored goods. Storage conditions and blocks can be applied to individual locations. Lot A number of items produced and stored together that are identified by a (lot) code. Lots identify goods. Date A date that is assigned to items when they are stored. You can use inventory dates to retrieve items based on FIFO (First In First Out) or LIFO (Last In First Out), without carrying out extensive lot control. The meaning of the inventory date is connected to the outbound priority of LIFO, FIFO, or the product expiry date of the item. With outbound priority LIFO or FIFO, the default for the inventory date is the system date; however, you can overwrite this so that the inventory date does not have to be equal to the storage date. If the item has a particular shelf life, the inventory date is the product expiry date defined for the item. Test Quantity The part of the sample quantity that is tested each time. Explanation: A 5 kg sample will be tested by testing 1 kg at a time. Note For each test quantity, the result of the test can be entered in the Sample - Test Data by Characteristic (qmptc1115m000) session or in the Sample - Test Data by Serial Number (qmptc1116m000) session. Sample Quantity When you draw a sample of a specific order quantity, you often do not want to test all the pieces at once. A sample quantity is the actual quantity that is drawn from the total sample size, and that is tested at once. Sample Time The date on which the samples are taken. Test Data If this check box is selected, test data is available. |
