SAP
Quality Management
The SAP QM module
is responsible
for setting standard
testing procedures
and quality specifications.
It stores quality
related data in
conjunction with
finished goods
and receipts and
process quality
measurements.
SAP generates
the worklist for
quality samples
to be taken and
recorded. The
PI System collects
data at the source,
automatically
using interfaces
to laboratory
systems and on-stream
analyzers. Data
is also collected
using the PI ManualLogger
and hand-held
terminals.
