Workflows & examples

1. Incoming inspection at goods receipt

  1. Goods arrive and a Goods Receipt (GRN) is created in Inventory.
  2. Run an incoming inspection in Quality → Inspections, linked to the GRN and supplier.
  3. Enter results and confirm via the two-step submit.
  4. A pass accepts stock into on-hand; a fail raises an NCR and can trigger a vendor return.

2. Handling a failed in-process check

  1. A work order runs an in-process inspection against its template.
  2. The inspection fails — an NCR is auto-raised with defect and severity.
  3. Quality investigates root cause and sets a disposition (rework/scrap).
  4. Corrective actions are verified and the NCR is closed.

3. Supplier quality escalation

  1. Repeated incoming failures accumulate against a supplier.
  2. Reports shows the supplier’s declining pass rate.
  3. A supplier-quality NCR is escalated to procurement.
  4. Procurement acts — corrective plan, vendor return, or resourcing.
