Business value
Sample management helps manufacturers keep product quality consistent, lower compliance risks, and make traceability better. With these benefits, manufacturers can efficiently meet regulatory standards and customer expectations.
Feature details
With sample management, you can:
Define a plan for sampling finished goods that you produce with production or batch orders. Set how often to take samples, such as one sample from every 10th produced batch or license plate. You don't track samples in inventory. Instead, you define their lifecycle.
Define a plan for testing samples by using quality orders. Set how often to test the samples, such as testing every seventh sample.
Block the portion of produced goods that you didn't test. When a quality order passes, you automatically release the portion of produced goods.
Keep track of samples throughout their lifecycle, from creation to disposal.
