Background documentationNC Clients

 

Shop floor operators use nonconformance clients to log failure, defect, and repair information against work in process (WIP).

You can create nonconformance clients in NC Client Maintenance, though there are several nonconformance clients that come with the system (see NC Client Maintenance). You can use these nonconformance clients for many typical scenarios.

The following table describes nonconformance clients that come with the system:
