LESSON 1: Sampling Processes
After completing this lesson, participants will be able to:
• Explain the Sampling Process
• Explain the Acceptable Quality Level (AQL)
• Create a Sampling Scheme
• Create a Sampling Procedure

Lesson Objectives
 • Sampling Scheme
• A sampling plan that applies to a sample size based on specific inspection lot
quantity
• Defines criteria for determining whether and how a sample is accepted or rejected
• Sampling Procedure
• Defines the rules that specify how the system calculates the sample size
• Contains information about the valuation of an inspection characteristic during
results recording
• Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) Value
• Represents the upper limit of a satisfactory, average quality level
• Relates to acceptance sampling inspection

Lesson Terms and Concepts

• Sample Scheme contains the following:
• Acceptable Quality Level (AQL)
o Represents the limit of a satisfactory average quality level for an acceptance
• Sampling Table
o Arranged according to the lot quantity for each inspection severity
• Inspection Severity
o Identifies type of inspection

Sampling Scheme
• Sampling Procedure used at characteristic level
• Rules for determining the sample
• Parameters the system uses to determine a sample size
o Sampling Type
– Defines how a sample is calculated
o Valuation Mode

– Contains the rules for acceptance

Sampling Procedure

Sampling Procedure
• Calculation of sample size can be done automatically
• Assign Sampling Procedure
o System calculates the sample sizes based on those specific characteristics

System
Define Aviall Specific Assign Characteristics Automatically
Characteristics to Inspection Plan calculates sample
size

• How do you know if the sample is acceptable?

• Aviall has a standard number of defects permitted per lot

LESSON 2: Create Catalogs and
Inspection Methods
 • Catalog
• Provide a means of making sure to use terminology consistently
• QM Work Center
• A physical location at which inspections are conducted

Lesson Terms and Concepts

• Catalogs are used to standardize information on a company-wide basis
• Can directly assign catalogs to:
o Master inspection characteristics
o Assign them using the inspection method
• Stores information at characteristic level in tasks lists
• Easier to record the following:
o Inspection results
o Defects
o Defect locations
• Facilitate usage decisions
• Used to describe the following:
o Defect items
o Tasks
o Activities
o Causes in quality notifications
o Maintenance notifications
o Service notifications

Characteristics of Catalogs
• The system contains the following catalog types

• Create and change code groups in a catalog type

• Group several codes together into code groups
• Create selected sets at plant level that contain codes
from different catalogs

LESSON 3: Create Master
Inspection Characteristics
After completing this lesson, participants will be able to:
• Explain Master Inspection Characteristics
• Update Master Inspection Characteristics

Lesson Objectives
 • Master Inspection Characteristic (MIC)
• An inspection characteristic that is created as a master record
• Intended for frequent use in inspection plans or for evaluation purposes across all
inspection plans
• Selected Sets
• Contains a combination of different codes at plant level

Lesson Terms and Concepts

• Master Inspection Characteristics contain 2 types of data:
• General Data
o Plant, status, assigned catalogs, language key
• Controlled Data
o Sampling procedure, inspection scope, qualitative or quantitative characteristics

• The following are functions for the selected master inspection characteristics

Master Inspection Characteristic (MIC)

• Selected Set contains a combination of different codes at plant level
• Used to combine codes from several code groups
• For Example:
• The codes in the selected set Powdered drink color contain a limited number of colors
that describe the foodstuff
• The selected set Paint color, however, contains color codes that describe the paint color
of a car
• These codes are also contained in the code groups for "Red colors" and "Green colors"

Selected Set
• To Create or change a Master Inspection Characteristic
• Define link between master inspection characteristics and class characteristics
o This enables the automatic transfer of inspection results to the batch classification
• Use control indicators for the inspection characteristic, for example:
o The characteristic type
o Specification limits
Class
o The type of results recording Characteristics
Link
• Assign an inspection method
• Assign Code Groups or Selected Sets
• Inspector Qualification Inspector Control

LESSON 4: Create and Maintain
Inspection Plans
After completing this lesson, participants will be able to:
• Create Inspection Plans
• Maintain Inspection Plans

Lesson Objectives
 • Inspection Plans
• A task list that may contain the following:
o Material to be inspected
o How the inspection is to take place
o Characteristics to be inspected

Lesson Terms and Concepts

• Why are Inspection Plans created?
• Audit Purposes
• Preliminary series inspection
• Goods receipt inspection
• Goods issue inspection
• Inspection of stock transfers
• Purpose of a inspection Plan:
• Define which characteristics are to be inspected
• Which test equipment will be used in the inspection

Inspection Plan
• To Create an Inspection Plan the following are required:
• Define how this inspection plan is going to be used
• Which materials are to be inspected
• Define the work centers where the inspections will take place
• Which test equipment will be required for the inspection
• Data that must exist in the system include:
o Master characteristics
o Code groups
o Sampling schemes, and procedures
How it is used
