Associating Specification Types

Trigger:

Concept
You can associate a specification type with a collection plan to speed the specification selection
process both when entering quality results directly and when collecting data during transactions.

You can associate any of the three specification types with collection plans:

• Item Specification.
• Supplier Specification.
• Customer Specification.

You can also choose not to associate a collection plan with any specification type. A specification
type enables you to determine whether or not the collected result values are within the limits
established by the specification element.

In this topic, you will associate a collection plan with a specification type.
