Quality Processes
Purpose & Scope
The Quality Module ensures that every material batch—whether received from suppliers or produced in‑house—meets the predefined quality standards before it moves further in the supply chain. The module covers creation, execution, evaluation, and archival of quality checks generated from Inbound Receiving and Production processes.
Audience
Warehouse operators
Quality inspectors/lab technicians
Production operators & shift leaders
Production controllers/quality managers
When Are Quality Checks Generated?
Trigger | Process Step | Automatic Action | Typical Responsible Role |
|---|---|---|---|
Inbound delivery | Goods receipt on Warehouse module | System creates Q‑checks for every material that has “Requires QC” flag. The received material batch gains status Waiting for quality check. | Warehouse operator → Quality inspector |
Production instruction | Specific production instruction requires QC | System generates a Q‑check for the WIP batch at that operation. | Production operator → Quality inspector |
Lifecycle & Statuses
quality test created – Q‑check record exists but no measurement yet.
waiting for measurement – Appears in Quality Check View list.
approved – All parameters within limits; inventory/batch released.
declined – One or more parameters outside limits; batch blocked.
request fix (production only) – Deviation found, corrective action required; WIP paused until re‑test.
re‑approved / overruled – Production Control can overturn earlier decision.
