QCS Supplier Inspection Frequency Type Logic

This topic describes the frequency types and provides some examples:

• CERT

  No inspection by the quality team is needed when the item is received. If the system is set to automatically mark all skipped receipts as ACCEPTED, all CERT type receipts are marked as ACCEPTED. No quantity is required or used for this inspection frequency type.

• COUNT QCS_Item_Inspection_Break_Quantity

  During purchase order receiving, items move into QCS inspection when the quantity received since the last QC event reaches or exceeds the quantity set up for this QCS item. When you set up an item for a COUNT frequency type, the QCS Item Inspection Break Qty defaults to the value set for the selected Inspection Frequency.

  For example:

  Inspection Break Qty on QCS item = 100

  These PO receipts occurred: 01/06 qty 40; 01/13 qty 40; 01/20 qty 40; 01/27 qty 40.

  The receipt for 01/06 moves into QCS, because no previous receipts have been through QCS.

  The receipt for 01/13 is skipped because only 40 have been received since the last inspection.

  The receipt for 01/20 is skipped because only 80 have been received since last inspection.

  The receipt for 01/27 moves into QCS.

• DATE QCS_Item_Next_Inspect_Date

  During purchase order receiving, if the receive date is on or after the date specified for this QCS item, the receipt moves to QCS. Inspection dates must be changed manually on QCS items. When you set up an item for a DATE frequency type, the QCS Item Next Inspect Date defaults to the current date plus the default quantity number of days.

• DAYS QCS_Item_Next_Inspect_Date

  During purchase order receiving, if the receive date is on or before the date specified for this QCS item, the receipt moves to QCS. The next inspection date is calculated based on the Inspection Break Qty for this QC item, and the QC item record is updated. When you set up an item for a DAYS frequency type, the QCS Inspection Break Qty defaults to the value set for the selected Inspection Frequency, and the QC Item Next Inspect Date is set to the current date, plus the number of days in the default quantity.

• FREQ QCS_Item_Inspection_Break_Qty

  Example: Inspection break quantity on QCS item, with PO receipts on 01/06; 01/13; 01/20; 01/27; 02/03; and 02/10. The receipt for 01/06 moves to QCS because no previous receipts were sent through QCS. The receipt for 01/13 is skipped because it is the first receipt since the last QC event. The receipt for 01/20 is skipped because it is the second receipt since the last QC event. The receipt for 01/27 moves to QCS because it is the third receipt since the last QC event.
