Entering defects

The GainSeeker Administrator configures defects when they set up the Process used by the standard you selected. For more information, see Process Information.

If you are entering data for a sample with no defects, then you can proceed to Entering the number of Nonconforming units.

There are two basic ways to enter defects:

If you have already counted how many instances of each defect were found, click in the Count box next to each defect and then type the number found for that type of defect. Click here for an example:Click here for an example:

You have just reviewed a batch of 27 orders that have been billed. You found 4 spelling errors, 2 orders improperly routed, and 1 order lacking critical information. To enter this data:

Enter the Sample size of "27".
Click in the Spelling box, and then type "4".
Click in the Wrong Route box, and then type "2".
Click in the Omit Information box, and then type "1".

If you count defects during the process of inspecting units, you can click the button for the defects you find to increase the count of that defect by 1 each time you discover another instance of that defect in the sample.

Alternately, you can click in the Count box for the defect and then press the PLUS SIGN (+) key to increase the count.

Each day you review a stack of orders that have been billed by another employee. The number of orders can differ from one day to the next.

After entering yesterday's date and the traceability values for this batch of orders billed, you review the first order in the stack and find 1 spelling mistake and 1 routing mistake.

Click the Sample size button to increase the sample size from 0 to 1.
Click the Spelling button to increment the count of spelling defects by 1.
Click the Wrong Route button to increment the count of routing defects by 1.

You then review the second order, which had 1 spelling mistake.

Click the Sample size button to increase the sample size from 1 to 2.
Click the Spelling button to increment the count of spelling defects from 1 to 2.

You continue to repeat this process until you have reviewed all the orders in the stack.
