Station

 

Inside the Station, the administrator can select where the QCP checklist is available either by Station or Process.

Once Station is selected, the following options are available: Part Number and Part Number, these options allow the user to customize and optimize their checklist;  the option By User, is shown at the end of the list, and it can be enabled only if the administrator wants the checklist to be displayed and answered by every user that uses that Station or Process; the QCP checklist will be displayed in the specific Station or Process when the user logs in the selected  Station or Process.

Note: If the administrator selects the option By User, the QCP must be filled every time the checklist expires based on the frequency configured.

Process

If Process is selected instead of Station the option Location in Process will be enabled. This option allows the user to display the QCP (checklist) in ALL the Locations that belong to a specific Process.

Frequency

Frequency indicates the time and how often the administrator wants the checklist to be visible for the user, the Frequency can be adjusted according to the administrator needs:  Every Minute, Every Time, and By Shift. 

Figure 10: Frequency

If the Frequency is set to Every Minute, the checklist will display every minute after the checklist is answered,  if the user selects the option Every Time it is necessary to enter the exact hour, e.g. 7:00, 8:00, 9:00  and will be able to set more than one hour apart from the minutes.

Note: If both values Every Minute and Every Time are configured, the checklist will be displayed when the next one expires (the closest).

If the user chooses the option By Shift, the established time will appear at the beginning of every shift that has been previously configured in the SFDC Configuration module. The Early Submit Allowance can only be enabled if the option By Shift is selected and this allows the user to set minutes previous to the established time so the user can have a time advantage. 

 

Figure 11: Every Minute, Every Time, By Shift 

Note: The three options Every Minute, Every Time, and By Shift can be all selected at the same time or just one at a time.

 

Description

From the Description field, the user can generate and customize the QCP questions; the Type option allows to choose from three different types of data to set the questionnaire answers: Multiple Choices, Text or Number, the QCP checklist can also be set to be required, or to keep showing or not by choosing the option On.

 Data Type

Multiple Choices allows the user to customize the questions by adding the necessary values to their questionnaire e.g Option 1 Option 2 Option 3.

The user answering is able to see these options as checkboxes on the questionnaire, only if the option Allow Multiple is selected but if it’s not selected the options will show as radio buttons, which only allow the user to select one option at a time.

The Text option allows the administrator to leave the question answers open for the user to complete by writing.
