qm — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited qm (Agent Skill) and scored it 100/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 0 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

First recorded scan — no prior version to compare against.
The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
This skill enforces correct QM implementation practices, ensuring that inspection plans are maintained before procurement and production go-live, usage decisions are never skipped for inspection lots, and quality notifications are always linked to root cause analysis — because a quality notification without a root cause is a complaint, not a corrective action.

Define quality requirements at the material level:
Quality catalogs define standardized code groups for:
| Catalog Type | Purpose | Transaction |
|---|---|---|
| 1 — Defect types | What is wrong (scratch, crack, dimension deviation) | QS41 |
| 3 — Defect locations | Where on the item (surface, edge, interior) | QS41 |
| 5 — Causes | Why it happened (tool wear, operator error, material defect) | QS41 |
| 9 — Activities | What corrective action was taken (rework, scrap, sort) | QS41 |
| E — Usage decisions | Possible quality verdicts (accept, reject, conditional) | QS51 |
Group catalogs into profiles (QS41) and assign to notification types. Ensures consistent coding across plants and quality teams.
Inspection Plan Header (material, plant, plan group/counter)
└── Operation (sequence step — e.g., visual inspection, dimensional check)
└── Inspection Characteristic (specific measurement — e.g., length, weight, color)
└── Specification (target value, tolerances, sampling)| Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Quantitative | Measured value with tolerances | Length: 100mm +/- 0.5mm |
| Qualitative | Attribute check (pass/fail, code) | Surface: OK / Defective |
| Formula-based | Calculated from other characteristics | Ratio = Length / Width |
Reusable characteristic definitions maintained centrally. Referenced in inspection plans. Changes to master characteristic propagate to all referencing plans.
| Sampling Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Fixed sample | Always inspect N units |
| Percentage-based | Inspect X% of lot quantity |
| Sampling scheme | AQL-based per ISO 2859 (single, double, sequential) |
| 100% inspection | Inspect every unit (for critical characteristics) |
| Skip lot | Skip inspection for qualified suppliers (dynamic modification) |
Automatically adjust inspection scope based on quality history:
Inspection lots are created automatically based on triggers:
| Inspection Type | Trigger | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 01 — Goods receipt | MIGO goods receipt for purchase order | MM |
| 03 — In-process | Production order confirmation at operation | PP |
| 04 — Goods issue for delivery | Delivery creation for customer | SD |
| 05 — Goods receipt from production | Production order goods receipt | PP |
| 08 — Stock transfer | Stock transfer posting | MM |
| 09 — Recurring inspection | Time-based for stored materials | QM |
| 89 — Physical sample | Laboratory sample inspection | QM |
| Transaction | Purpose |
|---|---|
| QA32 | Change inspection lot — results recording |
| QE01 | Results recording for inspection point |
| QE51N | Results recording worklist |
| QA33 | Display inspection lot |
Record measured values for each characteristic. System evaluates against specification (target, upper/lower limits). Automatic valuation: characteristic accepted or rejected based on results.
Record defects found during inspection with catalog codes:
The formal quality verdict for an inspection lot:
| Decision Code | Action | Stock Posting |
|---|---|---|
| Accept (A) | Release to unrestricted stock | Quality -> Unrestricted (321) |
| Reject (R) | Block stock or return to supplier | Quality -> Blocked (343) or return |
| Conditional Accept | Accept with deviation documentation | Quality -> Unrestricted with note |
| Scrap | Write off material | Quality -> Scrap (551) |
| Rework | Return for reprocessing | Quality -> Rework (internal) |
| Sample retained | Retain sample, release lot | Quality -> Unrestricted |
Usage decisions can trigger automatic follow-up:
| Type | Code | Use Case | Transaction |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quality Notification (general) | Q1 | Customer complaint | QM01 |
| Quality Notification (vendor) | Q2 | Supplier quality issue | QM01 |
| Quality Notification (internal) | Q3 | Internal defect report | QM01 |
Notification Header (reporter, priority, dates)
└── Items (defect descriptions with catalog codes)
└── Causes (root cause with catalog codes)
└── Activities/Tasks (corrective actions with responsible persons and deadlines)| Transaction | Purpose |
|---|---|
| QM01 | Create quality notification |
| QM02 | Change quality notification |
| QM03 | Display quality notification |
| QM10 | List of quality notifications |
| QM50 | Notification processing deadline monitoring |
Quality notifications support the 8D methodology: D1 (Team), D2 (Problem Description), D3 (Containment), D4 (Root Cause), D5 (Corrective Action), D6 (Verification), D7 (Prevention), D8 (Closure). Map notification items, causes, and tasks to 8D steps.
