Dynamic Modification Rule of Inspection Scope

[Former Member]

Dear all,

What are the following terminology means in dynamic modification rule of inspection scope:

1. Inspection severity

2. Inspection stage.

3. Quality Level.

Hi,

Inspection severity

In the QM component, the inspection severity serves as an identifier for a normal, reduced, or tightened inspection. By varying the inspection severity, you can flexibly adjust the probability of acceptance and the inspection effort based on different quality situations.

The inspection severity is closely related to the inspection scope. Assuming that all other conditions are the same, different inspection severities lead to different inspection scopes or acceptance conditions.

You can only specify inspection severities that were defined in the Customizing for Sample, SPC.

Inspection stage

For each inspection stage, you can define the conditions under which an inspection stage change occurs. The system always checks the conditions for the stage change and the potential stage change itself after the defined dynamic modification time, at lot creation, or after the usage decision. There are always two cases that apply to the conditions for an inspection stage: An acceptance (OK) and a rejection (not OK).

In general, three possibilities exist:

As soon as the predefined conditions for a rejection are met, the system switches to the new inspection stage specified for this case.

As soon as the predefined conditions for an acceptance are met, the system switches to the new inspection stage defined for this case.

If neither the conditions for an acceptance nor the conditions for a rejection are met, the system does not change the inspection stage.

The system first checks the condition for a rejection. If the condition for an inspection stage change with a rejection is not fulfilled, the system checks the condition for an acceptance.

Before you edit the conditions for a stage change, you must have entered all inspection stages in the inspection stages screen.

Quality level

The information in the quality level determines which inspection stage will be used for the sample determination of the next inspection lot.

The system updates the fields in the quality level differently during dynamic modification. This depends on whether dynamic modification occurs at lot creation or when the usage decision is made. You define which of these times will apply in the dynamic modification rule.
