Difference between preset indicators and control indicators

[Former Member]

Hello ,

Can you tell me please the difference between preset indicators and control indicators ?

Thanks.

Preset Indicators are essentially a saved template for Control Indicators. You are saving default values for Control Indicators which can then be reused for MICs.

Control Indicators are what tell the MIC what it does, so whether or not you use a sampling procedure, have lower or upper limits, etc.

You could use Preset Indicators if, for example, you create a general MIC that is testing for weight and sometimes you want weight to be a calculated MIC and other times you want it to be a summarized recording. You can use Preset Indicators in this instance to use the same MIC for both as opposed to creating 2 separate MICs.

Thank you for your answer .

I want to ask you please if there is a special screen for editing quantitative characteristic ?

Not a special screen, but your Control Indicator options will change based upon whether you designate an inspection characteristic as qualitative or quantitative.

This designation is done when you create the MIC with transaction QS21.

Hi

Control indicators mean the various ticks that you choose while creating MIC in QS21, for example, Lower, Upper, Target values tick, fixed scope, or required, optional characteristic etc

Control Indicators are the customizes function. You want to see the list of Control Indicators follow belowing path-
