Files can be linked to each inspection. A common practice is to add a Packing List, Certificate of Conformances, Test Results, Drawings, and Pictures of non-conformances. Once linked, files can be viewed at any time in the future.

NOTE: If organizations want to reduce data-entry, this Inspection and Non-Conforming software has the ability to maintain Purchase Order information through a direct link to many ERP systems, or through an automated sync process of Purchase Order information. Call Database Providers to learn more about this feature.
When this direct link or sync feature is used, many of the fields are pre-populated based on the PO No and Line Item entered by the receiver. In most cases, the Part Number, Part Revision Level, Vendor / Supplier Name, PO No, PO Line Item fields are all populated from the Purchase Order information. In addition to those fields, there are numerous other fields, such as Lot Code, Date Code, Serial Numbers, etc., that can be populated depending on the amount of data the Purchase Order contains on the ERP side.
