Row Menu - Stock Depreciation - Quality Control

This page describes the 'Quality Control' function on the Row menu in the Stock Depreciation record window. If you are using iOS or Android, the 'Quality Control' function is on the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon).

---

The 'Quality Control' function will be useful in cases where an Item is one that should be subject to a quality control cycle. For example, the Item might be perishable. In the context of a Stock Depreciation record, a probable reason for creating a Quality Control record will be to record the failing of a quality control test, to support the creation of the Stock Depreciation record.

To use this function, first place the insertion point in a row containing the relevant Item (which must be Serial Numbered at Unit or Batch level). Then open the Row menu by right-clicking (Windows) or Ctrl-clicking (macOS) the row number. When the Row menu opens, select 'Quality Control'. If you are using iOS or Android, select 'Quality Control' from the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon). A new record will be created in the Batch Quality Control setting in the Service Orders module:

The new Batch Quality Control record will be opened in a window entitled 'Batch Quality Control: New'. This means that it has not yet been saved. The Item Number, Serial Number and Comment will be taken from the Stock Depreciation row, the Analyse Date will be the current date, and your Signature as the current user will be placed in the Tested By field. The Stock Depreciation Number will also be copied to the Batch Quality Control record. If you have configured a Batch Quality Control Template for the Item containing a list of the Tests that should be carried out to ensure the Item meets quality standards, it will appear in the Template field and the Tests will be listed in the matrix. Save the record to bring the Item into the quality control cycle.

If the function does not create a Batch Quality Control record when expected, the probable causes are:

  1. You did not place the insertion point in a Stock Depreciation row before selecting the function.

  2. The Item in the row containing the insertion point is not Serial Numbered at Unit or Batch level.
