Process Inspection
After you enter the quantities accepted and rejected for an operation, the
system prompts you to record results and comments. The system
compares your entry with the specification for the result. If the result is
out of tolerance, a warning displays.
As with quality orders, you can enter only one result per specification.
Enter additional information as comments. If you have several samples,
you may want to enter the best, worst, or typical case for each group.
During inspection, process material remains in WIP. After an inspection is
complete, material moves to the next operation. From the last operation
the accepted material is received back into inventory and rejected material
is scrapped. Figure 10.10 illustrates the process inspection.
Conducting Other Tests
You can use quality orders to conduct other specialized kinds of tests.

Material subject to an inventory audit is like material processed by
incoming inspection. Both use quality orders, and material never leaves
inventory. The difference is that material is selected from inventory for
audit based on criteria such as expiration date or item.
