note

To go back to the Search screen, click Non Confirmation Review next to Welcome at the top-right corner of the page.

1. Steps to Use the Non-Conformation Review​

Open the Non-Confirmation Review Screen:

  • Navigate to the Non-Confirmation Review section.
Search for an existing NCR

On the Search page, you can filter existing records by Reviewed Status, Root Cause and System Status, plus a mandatory NCR From Date / NCR To Date range, then click Search.

The results grid lists S.No, View/Edit, Reviewed Person (the reviewer who actioned the NCR), and — once a search is run — Description, Reviewed Status, Root Cause, System Status and Root Cause Description (the last four only apply to non-Approved statuses).

To add a new Non-Conformance Review, click Add Non Confirmation Review and follow these steps:

  • Select the Part Name – Control Plan.
  • Select the required Customer.
  • Optionally narrow the defects fetched by entering a Defect From Date / Defect To Date range.
  • Select the required Defects.

After selecting the required defects, the Defect Details screen will appear. This screen includes the following fields:

  • Customer: Select the required customer from the dropdown menu.
  • Part: Select the required part from the dropdown menu.
  • Defect From, Defect Marked By Operator, Reason Given By Operator, Date, and Time of Rejection: These are read-only fields displaying entries made by the operator.
note

The Task Serial No. added in the Part Validation sub tab in Control Task screen will move to the Select Defects field in NCR screen, only when the Operator selects Machining defect or Casting defect.

Multi-Select Defect Selection
  • By default, the Defect field is in single-select mode.
  • Selecting a Part Name – Control Plan enables multi-select for the Defect field.
  • Removing the selected Control Plan reverts the Defect field to single-select, clears all selected defects, and hides the Defect Details section.
  • Multi-select is allowed only when all selected defects have the same Defect Marked By Operator, Defect From, and Part Status.
  • If an incompatible defect is selected, the system displays an alert and automatically removes that defect from the selection.
  • In single-select mode, all defect detail fields are displayed.
  • In multi-select mode, the individual defect detail fields are hidden and a View Defect Details button is displayed.
  • Click View Defect Details to view each selected defect's Defect, Defect From, Date & Time of Rejection, Reason Given By Operator, and Defect Validation, plus a Validation Details column — click its View link to see the task validation readings behind that defect, or "No Validation" is shown when none apply.
  • Reviewed Status: Choose the reviewed status from the dropdown menu.
  • If you select Approved or Conditionally Approved, the process will move to the next step.
  • If you select Rework, the system will navigate to the Rework screen.
  • If you select Rejection or Casting Rejection, you will be required to fill in the following fields:
  • Reviewer: Select the reviewer from the dropdown menu.
  • Description: Enter the description.
  • System Status: Choose the system status from the dropdown menu.
  • Root Cause: Select the root cause from the dropdown menu.
  • Root Cause Description: Enter the root cause description.
  • Containment Action Required: If you select "Yes," you must complete the following fields:
  • Action Details
  • Target Date
  • Click Submit to finalize.
  • The system will navigate to the Eight Disciplines screen, where the first four disciplines will be auto fetched
  • You need to enter the details for Disciplines 5 to 8 manually

2. Effect Of The NCR Decision On Production Flow And Stock​

The reviewed status you submit updates the Control Task entries and the Stock Ledger for the serial number, just as in Line Inspection.

  • Approved / Conditionally Approved: a new Approved entry is added for the NCR's process and the serial number is available again.
    • If Line Inspection had rejected the serial after later processes were completed, all those later processes are restored to Approved. Their history is kept.
    • The serial is then active only at its furthest completed process (for example OP50), and its stock is returned to that process.
  • Rework / Rejection / Casting Rejection: the serial is not offered to the next process, later completed processes are marked with the same status, and stock moves into the matching bucket once.

3. Revising An NCR Decision After Approval​

  • An approved NCR can be edited and submitted again with a different reviewed status, for example from Approved to Rework.
  • The new decision is added as a new entry; earlier entries remain as history.
  • Stock moves once, from the process where the serial's stock currently sits into the new status bucket.
  • Submitting the same decision again changes nothing. No duplicate entry or stock movement is created.
  • After a submit, the defect list refreshes. A message such as "No Defect for the Selected Part-Control plan and Customer" simply means no open defect remains for that selection.
