Enter Scrapping Event

Explanation

Use this activity to register a scrapping event. When new scrapping events are reported it is mandatory that a production event be connected to the new record. This connection is necessary in order to retrieve information on the product, quality, produced quantity and production date of the production unit you want.

Prerequisites

The production event to which the scrapping event is required to be connected must have been registered in the Produced Event window.

System Effects

• A scrapping event with a unique ID is registered and available for use (e.g., for analysis) in IFS/OEE.
• The stop event record will be available in the Production Unit and Production Unit Overview windows.
• The scrapping event can be used for calculating the quality of production (the Q figure) during an APQ analysis or at a later stage using the Production Process Optimization process.
