Specification Contexts
Specification context records enable the quality administrator to define when NetSuite invokes a specification. Identifying these fields helps the Quality Management SuiteApp to monitor the appropriate transaction type and then match transaction details against context settings. When a match is identified, all inspections identified on the context record are added to the inspection queue to initiate shop floor activity.
A specification can only be triggered when an active matching context record is identified and the specification is active.
Context records support the following transaction types:
-
Item Receipt – to monitor inbound item receipts.
-
Assembly / Work Order Build – to monitor non-work center production activities.
-
Work Order Completion – to monitor work center specific production activities.
-
API – to trigger the Quality Inspection Queue for any transaction type supported by NetSuite.
-
Item Fulfillment – to monitor outbound item receipts from Sale Orders, Transfer Orders, and Vendor Returns.
-
Production Result – to monitor production activities reported through the Advanced Manufacturing SuiteApp.
