This content was translated using artificial intelligence. To request a review, please email documentacao_se@softexpert.com.

 

Prerequisite

  • Access the menu Registration > Receiving Inspection Form (IP003).

 

Presentation

In the receiving inspection form registration menu (IP003), it is possible to configure how inspections will be carried out for a given item, ensuring standardization and traceability in the process. 

Among these parameter settings, the inspection stage configurations stand out, including defining the stage frequency, applying evaluation checklists, and setting sampling rules.  

In this article, we will continue with the example already used with steel bars supplied by an external partner. 

 

Configuring frequency of the inspection step

1. Access the menu Registration > Receiving Inspection Form (IP003).

2. In the inspection form, go to the Default Configuration or Form Configuration tab, depending on the type of object.

3. Locate the Inspection Step Frequency section.

4. Select the frequency from the options: “No inspection”, “Skip-batch”, “Full inspection”.

Detailed description of the fields 

Inspection frequency 

Select the frequency that will be used for inspecting the item on the form. The system provides the following options:

  • Skip-lot : allows you to reduce the total number of inspections after verifying a favorable history of the quality of items, inputs, or processes. 
  • Full inspection : all incoming goods will be inspected.
  • No inspection : no shipments will be inspected.
Type This field is enabled and required when the defined frequency is "Skip-batch". In this case, specify the type of skip-batch that will be used.
Frequency

This field is enabled and required when the defined frequency is "Skip-batch". In this case, define the frequency applicable to the item.

Last record inspected

This field is automatically populated by the system with the last inspection performed on the item when the frequency is set to "Skip-batch". The button next to it allows you to view the inspection data. 

The "Replicate data" button is only displayed when there is a supplier associated with the record object.

 

5. Save the information to complete the setup.

 

Configuring sampling rules

1. Access the menu Registration > Receiving Inspection Form (IP003).

2. In the Default Configuration or Form Configuration tab, depending on the type of object entered in the form, locate the Sampling Rule section.

3. Select the recording mode:

  • Record readings : allows you to enter all readings of the object's characteristics at the time of inspection.
  • Record averages : allows you to record the averages of the readings. During inspection, it is necessary to report maximum, minimum, and average values, instead of all the individual readings of the characteristics.

4. Select the rule type:

Detailed description of the fields 

Sampling plan

Allows the use of a sampling plan . The plan contains the necessary settings for the system to automatically determine the sample size of the receipt. To simulate the sampling plan, click the button next to the Rule field. Then, fill in the following information:

  • Sampling plan : select the plan that will be used in reading the object's characteristics: "Single", "Double" or "Multiple".
  • Inspection level : Define the inspection level to be used. This parameter establishes the relationship between the batch size and the sample size.
  • Level 1: when inspection costs are high.
  • Level 2: Normal situations.
  • Level 3: when inspection costs are reduced.
  • Levels S1 to S4: indicated when the costs of destructive testing are high for small samples, or when higher risks are tolerated. These levels may be considered adequate when repetitive processes are used by high-quality suppliers.
  • Work regime : select the regime that defines the severity of the inspection of the object's characteristic: "Reduced", "Normal" or "Severe".
  • NQA : Select the acceptable quality level for the object.
Sampling table Allows the use of a sampling table in the readings of the object's characteristics. In this case, select the desired table and the corresponding operating regime in the respective field.
Defined size

Allows you to define that the sample to be inspected has a fixed size. In the Sample size field , enter the desired value and, in the Max. quantity of rejects field , the maximum quantity of rejects allowed.

Percentage

Allows samples to be calculated based on a percentage of the quantity of the item received. For example, for 30 items received, inspecting 10% results in 3 items. In this case, choose a percentage in the respective field and define the maximum percentage of rejects.

The "Replicate data" button is only displayed when there is a supplier associated with the record object.

 

5. Save the information to complete the setup.

 

Associating assessment checklist

1. Access the menu Registration > Receiving Inspection Form (IP003).

2. On the inspection form, go to the Assessment Checklist tab.

3. Click the Associate button.

4. On the screen that opens, select a previously configured checklist.

5. Save the information to complete the setup.

The evaluation checklist assists in assessing important aspects that must be met during the inspection stages. Once configured and associated, when executing the inspection stage , the checklist becomes part of the criteria that will be evaluated for acceptance approval

  • Checklist configuration is done via the Checklist menu (IP061) . For more details, see the generic resource by clicking here .
  • The assessment checklist configuration is done through the Assessment Checklist menu (IP019) . For more details on registration and configuration, click here .

The recorded information can only be saved after filling in the required fields in the General and Form Configuration/Default Configuration tabs .

 

Conclusion

The definitions described in this article help optimize the number of samples, ensure the conformity of inspected items, and standardize inspection criteria when necessary. For more details on inspection form parameters, please refer to the following articles:
