Quality

Producepak Quality Inspection module can be used for all types of quality inspections, tests, and even quality management system processes such as daily hygiene checklists and more...

Quality inspection
Quality control can be used for inspections or checklists on any subject (eg: food item, raw materials, person, team, equipment, truck, shipping container, or building etc).

You can also configure a Quality program to record the results of tests performed outside your company (eg: chemical residue analysis or nutrient analysis; alternatively, you can attach these documents directly to the Batch) if you are using other Farmsoft modules.

INVENTORY ON HOLD
If you use other Producepak modules, you can use the Inventory On Hold features.

Inventory that is put on hold can't be sold. Put inventory on hold if there is a potential issue with it that must be investigated before it can be used further, or to keep a sample from a batch in case the customer challenges quality at a later date; you can then examine the sample to determine if the customers claims are valid. The "Inventory on hold" popup will show after entry of Criteria if you activate switch "Hold" if the test fails. To make the "Inventory on hold" popup always show for this test (eg: if you are keeping a sample from a batch) activate "Hold" AND enter "0" into field "Fails to hold batch". If inventory is on hold, you will see "ON HOLD" next to that inventory on reports and screens. Edit the inventory to turn OFF hold status.
