In this walkthrough, you will learn what needs to be set up in order to execute a Pre-Receive quality audit, and what happens during the Pre-Receive quality audit.

A Pre-Receive quality audit is when items must pass a series of tests before they can be unloaded from the truck, and received.

Function Background

With quality audits, you first need to set up the quality measures and quality procedures.

Quality measures are individual checks that need to be completed in a quality audit. Quality measure codes are assigned to quality procedures. The same quality measure code can be assigned to multiple quality procedures.

A quality procedure is a grouping of quality measure codes. The quality procedure can then be set up so that when an event occurs, a unique quality audit is generated based on that quality procedure. The same quality procedure can be associated with different events but a unique quality audit will always generated when the event occurs.

About This Walkthrough

This walkthrough provides an overview on how to do the following:

Story

The JF company has ordered 1000 pounds of corn syrup. The truck has arrived at the MAIN location, but a warehouse receiver needs to check the following conditions before allowing the corn syrup to be unloaded into a storage tank:

  • Certificate of Analysis

  • Cleanliness of the delivery truck's hose and port using ATP testing

Prerequisites

  • Number series defined for the Quality Procedure Setup Nos. field on the Quality Setup window.

  • Number series defined for the Quality Audit Nos. field on the Quality Setup window

Setting Up a Pre-Receive Quality Audit

The following procedures explain what needs to be set up in order to process a Pre-Receive quality audit.

To Set up Auto-Create Pre-Receive Audits

  1. In the Search box, enter quality setup, and select Quality Setup.

  2. On the General FastTab, select the Auto-Create Pre-Receive Audits check box. When this check box is selected, a quality audit will be automatically created when a warehouse receipt is created for an item that has a quality procedure, which is marked as Pre-Receive.

  3. Click OK.

  4. Purchase Order Item Charge Line

To Create Quality Measure Codes

The quality measure codes represent the different ways of recording the quality of an item. Quality measure codes need to be created for each of the conditions that need to be checked before accepting the delivery.

For the JF company, that means that quality measure codes need to be created for the following:

  • ATP hose
  • ATP port
  • Certificate of Analysis
  1. In the Search box, enter quality measure, and select Quality Measure Codes.

  2. Click New.

  3. Add the following records:

    Code Description Default Quality UOM Value Type
    ATP HOSE Lightning swab UNIT Decimal
    ATP PORT Lightning swab UNIT Decimal
    COA Certificate Analysis   Boolean

  4. Click OK.

  5. Quality Measure Codes

To Create a Quality Procedure

A quality procedure groups quality measure codes, and allows you to record the desired test results. The quality procedure can then be assigned to an item. When a warehouse receipt is generated, the quality procedure is used to create a quality audit related to the item on the warehouse receipt.

For the JF company, a GLUCOSE SYRUP CORN quality procedure is being created.

  1. In the Search box, enter quality procedures, and select Quality Procedures.

  2. Click New. The Quality Procedure Setup window opens.

  3. Enter information on the General FastTab.

    Field Description

    Code

    Tab off the field to have the system assign a code. (For a system-assigned code, a number series must be defined for the Quality Procedure Setup Nos. field on the Quality Setup window.)

    Description

    Enter GLUCOSE SYRUP CORN.

    Type

    Select Item.


  4. Add the following records to the Lines FastTab.

    Quality Measure Code Desired Value Decimal Max Critical Control Point

    COA

    Yes

    (A Certificate of Analysis must exist)

     

    Checked

    (If a Certificate of Analysis does not exist, the entire quality audit will fail)

    ATP HOSE

    0

    3

    (The maximum ATP measurement for the hose is 3)

    Checked

    (If the ATP measurement is above 3, the entire quality audit will fail.)

    ATP PORT

    0

    3

    (The maximum ATP measurement for the port is 3)

    Checked

    (If the ATP measurement is above 3, the entire quality audit will fail.)


  5. On the General FastTab, change the Status field to Certified.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Quality Measure Codes

To Assign the Quality Procedure to an Item

  7. Pre-Receive Quality Audit List

Performing the Pre-Receive Quality Audit

In this walkthrough, the first shipment failed the Pre-Receive quality audit because the ATP swab of the port failed. As a result, the following events occurred:

  • The delivery was refused.
  • The warehouse receipt was deleted.
  • A new warehouse receipt and quality audit were generated for the purchase order.
  • The second delivery passed the quality audit.

This section contains the following procedures:

To Perform a Failed Pre-Receive Quality Audit

The delivery truck has arrived, and the warehouse worker knows that a Pre-Receive audit is to be performed. The worker has a handheld device that has JustFoodERP on it (alternatively, these steps could be performed using the Floor application), and enters the audit results.

When the worker tests the cleanliness of the port, he discovers that the result is higher than what is permitted for the ATP Port test.

  1. In the Search box, enter warehouse receipts, and select Warehouse Receipts.

  2. Open the warehouse receipt associated with the delivery.

  3. On the Navigate tab, in the Line group, choose PO Quality Audits. The Quality Audit List window opens.

  4. Select the GLUCOSE SYRUP CORN line.

  5. On the Home tab, in the Process group, choose Quality Audit Wizard. The Quality Audit wizard opens.

  6. Click Next.

  7. Enter whether there was a Certificate of Analysis for the item.

    1. In the Result Value field, enter Yes. The Result field is automatically populated with Pass. The Test Complete check box is automatically selected.

    2. Click Next.

  8. Enter the results of the ATP swab on the hose.

    1. In the Result Value field, enter 0. The Result field is automatically populated with Pass. The Test Complete check box is automatically selected.

    2. Click Next.

  9. Enter the results of the ATP swab on the port.

    1. In the Result Value field, enter 4. The Result field is automatically populated with Fail.
