The Quality Tab

The Quality tab groups all quality records in one location. It is organized into the following topics:

QMS Tablet

To open the Quality Management tablet interface, go to Quality > QMS Tablet > Tablet.

On Demand Inspections

Quality Management SuiteApp enables you to trigger an inspection queue on demand with or without reference to a NetSuite transaction context. You can inspect an item as many times as preferred.

To create an Ad Hoc Creation Request, go to Quality > On Demand Inspections > Ad Hoc > New.

Quality Management SuiteApp also provides enhanced quality control with ad hoc inspection queues, which you can manually trigger to inspect items. For more information, see Ad Hoc Inspection Queues.

To open Quality Management Preferences, go to Quality > Preferences.

The Quality Preferences section displays the following features:

Setup

The Quality setup section displays the following features:

  • Data Fields – Quality inspection data fields enable you to define the types of data to collect during an inspection. You can add multiple data fields as multiple types. For example, boolean, integer, or float.

    For more information, see Data Fields.

  • Inspections – Quality inspections define data fields and associated standards to examine, measure, compare, or test product material or characteristics.

    For more information, see Quality Inspections.

  • Specifications – Quality specifications group related inspections that define inspection scenarios and enable inspections to be refined in relation to specific items. For example, default values or standards. Specifications provide the foundation for capturing quality data, creating reports, improving workflows, and identifying non-conformance.

  • Assign Inspections – After an inspection is triggered, it displays in the data collection tool inspection queue. A quality manager can control important attributes of the pending inspection including the assignee, priority, and status. To learn more, see Configure Quality Inspections.
