APL Scheduler

Quality in production

What you will learn

Link quality controls and results to affected production.

Worked example

Define a dimensional characteristic, add it to a plan, record an inspection and document nonconformity and disposition if it fails.

From data to result

  1. 1Characteristic
  2. 2Control plan
  3. 3Inspection
  4. 4Nonconformity

Record inspections, results, non-conformities and actions with traceability to the order, operation, item or resource. A non-conformity that blocks planning prevents scheduling until resolved or unblocked. Enter only real measurements; dashboard indicators use existing records and show a dash when evidence is insufficient.

Quality in production
  1. 1
    Use Quality overview to find pending inspections, failures and non-conformities. Filter the relevant list before opening a record.
  2. 2
    Define available control plans and characteristics, link inspections to production and record results with units and criteria. Check quantities and order/operation traceability.
  3. 3
    A non-conformity configured to block planning can prevent an order being scheduled. Check its impact before enabling or lifting the block and review the offered simulation.
  4. 4
    Keep findings and follow-up when resolving a case. An empty list is not necessarily an error; check filters, company and permissions.

Before you finish

The inspection links article/order/phase and records measurement, unit and criterion. Check severity, cause, action and nonconformity status.

Common questions

An option is missing or I cannot edit

Check active company, licence, permissions and integration-managed fields. Do not use a direct URL to bypass restrictions.

I cannot find records

Clear filters and check page, dates and company. There may be no accessible data; do not create duplicates to test.

I saved but cannot see the expected effect

Reopen the record and verify. Saving data does not publish a required simulation. Check whether the first write succeeded before repeating it.
