Module Guide: Score Mask

Module Location

Settings > Quality Control > Score Mask

Module Purpose

The Score Mask module is used to define which parameters or attributes will be assessed in the quality inspection process. The goal is to create an assessment "mask" or template (e.g., Shape, Color) which will later be filled with specific scoring criteria. This module is the first step in building a structured quality assessment scheme.

1. Main View (Score Mask List)

The main page displays all the assessment parameters (masks) that have been configured in the system.

View Explanation

• Search Filter: Allows for a quick search based on the Mask Code.

• List Table:

  • No.: Serial number.

  • Mask Code: A unique code for each assessment parameter (e.g., CLR, WRN).

  • Mask Name: The descriptive name of the parameter being assessed (e.g., Shape, Colour).

• Action Buttons:

  • New Score Mask: Opens the form to create a new assessment parameter.

2. Add Score Mask Page

This form is used to define a new assessment parameter.

View Explanation

• Mask Code: A field to enter a unique code (required).

• Mask Name: A field to enter the name of the parameter (required).

• Score Detail:

  • [+ Add Score]: A link to add a new row to define the specific scores or values that will be used in the assessment of this parameter. This is where you define the assessment choices (e.g., for 'Color', the score details could be 'Meets Standard,' 'Slightly Faded,' 'Wrong Color').

• Score Mask Order by Description: A checkbox that, if enabled, will sort the score options by their description when used in an inspection.

• Buttons:

  • Save: To save the new parameter data.

  • Cancel: To cancel the process.

3. Steps to Add a New Score Mask

1. From the main page, click the New Score Mask button.

2. Fill in the Mask Code and Mask Name (e.g., FNG and Finishing).

3. Click [+ Add Score] to start adding specific assessment criteria for that parameter.

4. Check Score Mask Order by Description if needed.

5. Click the Save button.

4. Integrated Workflow & Business Process

• Foundation of the Assessment Scheme: The Score Mask is the foundation of the quality assessment system. The parameters created here (like "Color") will be used in subsequent modules to build complete quality inspection forms.

• Inspection Standardization: Ensures that all quality inspectors assess products based on the same parameters, making the assessment results objective and consistent.

• Assessment Flexibility: Allows the company to create different sets of parameters for different types of products. For example, food products might have "Taste" and "Aroma" masks, while electronic products have "Functionality" and "Accessory Completeness" masks.

• Quality Data Analysis: The data collected based on these masks can be analyzed to identify in which areas (parameters) product defects most frequently occur.

5. Tips & Important Notes

• This module only defines what will be assessed (the parameters). The details of how to assess it (specific criteria and their scores) are defined on this add/edit page via the [+ Add Score] link.

• Use clear names and codes that are easily understood by the Quality Control team.

• Think carefully about what parameters are crucial for determining the quality of your product before configuring them in this module.
