Quality Management Roles
NetSuite Quality Management SuiteApp roles are assigned to employees who need to view or edit specific data.
To inspect data on the Quality Management tablet interface, you must log in as a quality administrator, operator, or manager role. The Administrator or a custom role has read-only access within the tablet.
These roles and their permissions determine which features you can use in the Quality Management interface and what tasks you can do:
For more information, see Assigning Roles to an Employee.
Quality Administrator
Quality administrators handle the initial setup of the NetSuite Quality Management SuiteApp and manage its ongoing administration.
The quality administrator completes these tasks:
-
Define and edit quality inspections and specifications.
-
Edit inspection queue priorities and assignments.
-
Capture inspection data.
-
Generate reports.

Modify workflows.
When you log in with a standard SuiteApp Quality Management role, the Quality Management tablet interface opens in write mode. The quality administrator role doesn't have write access to the Quality Management tablet.

The quality manager handles these tasks:
-
Edit inspection queue priorities and assignments.
-
Identify production processes and capture inspection data.

Capture inspection data.

Record notes to support inspection findings.

Use the tablet to capture photos to support inspection findings.
