Work centers in QM typically are used for the following:

- logically break up testing into logical components

- collect costs

- control security, I.e. only authorized users can record against certain work centers

- provide integration to external systems such as LIMS

These are four that come to my mind.  I'm sure there are probably more but I think these are the most common for QM.

Dear,

As per the definition, a work center is where operations are performed.

A work center can be a machine, a group of workmen, or a single individual.

Inspection plan is nothing but a task list; it lists down the inspection operations that are to be sequentially performed to complete the inspection. The work center in an operation defines where that operation is going to be performed.

Please search the forum and take a look in the link shared below:
