Creating an Item Inspection Standard

Inspections standards provide guidelines for inspectors to follow while performing inspections. These standards help establish inspection pass or fail criteria. Inspection standards can represent organizational or industry standards that define acceptable production measurements or values. They relate to data fields through inspection rules.

To create an item inspection standard:

  1. In the Quality Specification Form, in the Inspections subtab, click Edit beside the specification you want to view.

  2. Click the Item Inspection Standards subtab.

  3. Click the New Item Standard Field.

  4. Select an Item record to associate with the standard.

  5. Select the Standard Field to apply to the item and inspection.

  6. Select a Data Type to associate with the standard.

    For example, Text, Boolean, or Image.

    For more information, see Data Fields.

  7. In the Standard Value field, enter a pass or fail benchmark.

    • Boolean benchmarks are true or false. For example, visible damage is expected to be false.

    • Numerical standards are usually held to upper and lower control limits. For example, tire pressure cannot exceed 35 psi (35 is the standard).

  8. Click Save.
