Cells are sub-production areas or zones, representing a group of technicians within an area. For example, within the Paint area, there may be four cells: sealer, e-coat, main enamel and spill-out.

Defining unique areas and cells allows operators to assign the responsibility for a defect (the cause). At a later point you can also assign the repair to a particular area and cell.

Quality data can also be compared and contrasted among these cells. The responsible areas/cells are used in setting up parts, concerns and repairs, covered in the next section.

Note: It is highly recommended that you always set up a cell with an "N/A" (Not Applicable) designation. This allows an operator to make an entry even when the responsible area is unknown.

Note: The names and codes of cells must be unique. However, the same cell name and code can be applied to cells in different areas. For example, you can have Line1 in two different areas. They will be treated as completely separate cells.
