Build your quality inspection record.

How to build your quality inspection record

1. 1

   Describe the job

   Keep lot observations tied to the specification and inspector's disposition decision.

2. 2

   Review the first version

   Choose how the inspector records the lot and how the quality reviewer reviews the next step.

3. 3

   Refine the views

   Ask First to adjust the fields and views for the people who will use the app.

4. 4

   Test before sharing

   Walk through the process with a sample record and check who owns the next action.

What to include in your quality inspection record

• Keep the lot in context

  Keep lot, specification reference, observed value, inspector, exception and disposition together so the next person can understand the request or record.

• When the next step needs a decision

  A sample measurement lacks a linked specification revision. Record the observation but leave its acceptance undecided until the relevant requirement is supplied.

• Keep disposition visible

  Leave the exception open rather than treating an entered value as accepted quality.

• Choose what each person needs

  Give the inspector a working view and the quality reviewer a review view. Keep lot and specification reference attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
