If a part has a receive case inspection code of C, with a qty to inspect of 5, and the part has a purchasing control plan, with different inspection codes and qty to inspect, what quantity to inspect amount will get pulled into the receipt as the quantity to inspect.

Hi ​@Anneemaree,

As I remember it, the highest sample size from the active control plan is what populates the Qty to Inspect field.

Thanks ​@Yathartha Karunananda so it seems to ignore the qty to inspect on the supplier for purchase part and only uses the value from the control plan data point lines?

Hi ​@Anneemaree,

Yes. This is mentioned in the product documentation:

Hi @Anneemaree

 

If Mandatory Analysis is enabled, the receipt initially uses the active control plan's highest sample size, rather than automatically using 5.

Is Mandatory Analysis enabled for this supplier/part, or is only the control plan mandatory?

 

Thanks,

Gleb

Hi ​@Anneemaree 

Additional information to the previous points. Whenever the system generates an analysis using the control plan trigger for a receipt, the maximum quantity is taken from the control plan data points contained in that analysis.

if you want to test per lot, and use the skip lot functionality, does it make sense to NOT use order based?  or does IFS look at the Manufacturer’s lot # if you use order based lot#s.  especially if you receive the same Manufacturer’s lot # again.
