In a structured production environment, maintaining consistent product quality, ensuring adherence to process instructions, and tracking reasons for rejection are crucial to operational success. This tutorial outlines how to manage:
✅ Job Order Instructions
❌ Production Rejections & Reasons
🔬 Quality Control (QC) Parameters
📊 Reports for process analysis and quality insights
This process is especially helpful in garment, textile, electronics, or any discrete manufacturing industry.
🛠️ Step 1: Set Up Job Order Instructions
🔍 What Are Job Order Instructions?
These are process-specific guidelines that ensure production is carried out correctly and consistently. They help reduce human error❌, improve product quality🔧, and maintain standardization🏆 across batches.
📝 Example Instructions:
🪡“Use needle size 11 for lightweight fabric”
📏“Ensure 2-inch margin before stitching begins”
🧪“Run pre-wash test on dyed fabric”
📌 How to Set Up:
Go to Production, then click on Production Setups and select Setup Job Order Instructions in your system.
Click ➕Add New.
Enter:
Instruction Title🏷️.
Applicable Process🔄 (e.g., Cutting, Stitching)
💾Save the instructions.
✅ These instructions can now be linked to job orders at the time of creation, ensuring operators and supervisors are aligned.
❌ Step 2: Define Rejection Reasons
🔍 Why Track Rejections?
Understanding why items are rejected helps identify recurring production issues—whether due to machines🛠️, materials🧵, or human error👷.
📝 Common Rejection Reasons:
🩳Fabric torn during stitching.
🔁Stitch skipping.
📏Size mismatch.
🎨Print misalignment.
📌 How to Set Up:
Navigate to Production, click and expand Production Setups, then select Setup Production Rejection Reasons option.
Add relevant reasons with clear names and descriptions.
Save them for future selection during production entry.
🧠 These reasons are linked during production receipt so you can run historical analysis later.
🧾 Step 3: Create Job Order & Link Instructions
A Job Order🧵 defines what is being produced, in what quantity, and through which processes.
📌 How to Create:
Navigate to the Production option, then expand Production Vouchers and select Job Order.
Implementing a structured approach for job order instructions, rejection management, and quality control is essential for efficient and scalable📈 production. These tools not only help prevent problems but also build a data-backed framework for continuous improvement🔄.
