The input help list only contains one version of the inspection method- the current version. If there are additional versions available for the inspection method, these are not displayed in the list. This can result in the following:

End of the note.

  • The version on the list is not yet released or is not referenced. If you select and try to process such a version from the list, you receive a message that the inspection method is not referenced.

  • Another version of the inspection method, (one that is not on the list), may be referenced. In this case, you should delete the version number from the initial screen and continue processing.

You cannot reference inspection methods with status 1 in master inspection characteristics or task list characteristics. Therefore, choose an inspection method with status 2.
