Use this field to identify, for this entry transaction, if a non-conformance can be raised against a resource used for a routing operation. A resource in this context is defined as a single machine (a work center), or a work center group, or a labor resource, or both a machine and a labor resource. This check box is only displayed if the NCS-Non-conformance activity code is active.
Before setting the value of this check box you are advised to consider the role of users that have access to this entry transaction. Essentially this check box identifies if the user of this entry transaction can raise a non-conformance incident requesting an investigation into a potential 'problem', where the source of the problem is a resource used for an operation in a route. Operational resources within a manufacturing environment that typically result in a problem (a non-conformity) often occur at setup and run-time. For example, a machine does not comply or is set outside the agreed tolerances, the allocated welding time of 10 seconds does not provide a strong enough join, 15 seconds is required, or a tool is defective. If this entry transaction applies to employees that have the skills or authorization to report these types of non-conformities, click this check box.
