What are Details?
-
To see how this item is associated to other items refer to the Item Relationship topic.
The use of Details in Inspect is optional. Details are used in two situations:
Provide more information regarding a quality concern on a part.
Improve the location description of the concern on the part, when inspecting via part (non-image-based) buttons (as opposed to images).
For example, if an Inspect user enters the concern "dirt" on the part "door," a further modifier may be that the dirt on the door occurred in the "basecoat" or "clear-coat" of the paint.
Details are mostly used for text button input, where there is no picture of the problem component displayed. In this case, an inspector would touch a part button, then a concern, then a location and then a detail, if necessary.
Using the process flow above for example, an inspector may enter the following:
The part fender is selected.
The concern paint sag is selected.
The location left side is selected.
The detail upper is selected.
In the example above, the detail helps to specify a more precise location of the defect on the left side fender.
