About Submitting Inspection Results

After you perform an inspection, you must review the results to perform the following tasks:
  • If the inspection results of a sample fall under the specified limits, accept the serial/lot.
  • If the inspection results of a sample do not fall under the specified limits and/or the material is defective:
    1. Create a non-conformance for the material lot. When you do so, a defect is created for each defective serial/lot in the material lot and linked to the non-conformance. The non-conformance and the underlying defects appear in the Non Conformance application.
    2. Dispose all the defects in the non-conformance.
Only after you complete this task for all the serials/lots in a material lot, you can submit the inspection results. The inspection is marked complete (indicated by ), and it appears in the Closed section. You can no longer modify the inspection.
