Take a Picture quality check

In Odoo Quality, a Take a Picture check is one of the quality check types that can be selected when creating a new quality check or quality control point (QCP). Take a Picture checks require a picture to be attached to the check, which can then be reviewed by a quality team.

Create a Take a Picture quality check

There are two distinct ways that Take a Picture quality checks can be created. A single check can be manually created. Alternatively, a QCP can be configured that automatically creates checks at a predetermined interval.

This documentation only details the configuration options that are unique to Take a Picture quality checks and QCP. For a full overview of all the configuration options available when creating a single check or a QCP, see the documentation on quality checks and quality control points.

Process a Take a Picture quality check

Once created, there are multiple ways that Take a Picture quality checks can be processed. If a quality check is assigned to a specific inventory, manufacturing, or work order, the check can be processed on the order itself. Alternatively, a check can be processed from the check’s page.

从检查页面处理检查

To process a Take a Picture quality check from the check’s page, begin by navigating to Quality ‣ Quality Control ‣ Quality Checks, and then select a quality check. Follow the Instructions for how to take the picture.

After taking the picture, make sure it is stored on the device being used to process the quality check (computer, tablet, etc.). Then, click the ✏️ (pencil) button in the Picture section to open the device’s file manager. In the file manager, navigate to the picture, select it, and click Open to attach it.

在工单上处理检查

To process a Take a Picture quality check on an order, select a manufacturing order or inventory order (receipt, delivery, return, etc.), for which a check is required. Manufacturing orders can be selected by navigating to Manufacturing ‣ Operations ‣ Manufacturing Orders, and clicking on an order. Inventory orders can be selected by navigating to Inventory, clicking the # To Process button on an operation card, and selecting an order.

On the selected manufacturing or inventory order, a purple Quality Checks button appears at the top of the page. Click the button to open the Quality Check pop-up window, which shows all of the quality checks required for that order.

Follow the instructions detailing how to take the picture, which are shown on the Quality Check pop-up window. After taking the picture, make sure it is stored on the device being used to process the quality check (computer, tablet, etc.).

Then, click the Take a Picture button in the Picture section to open the device’s file manager. In the file manager, navigate to the picture, select it, and click Open to attach it. Finally, click Validate on the Quality Check pop-up window to complete the quality check.

If a quality alert must be created, click the Quality Alert button that appears at the top of the manufacturing or inventory order after the check is validated. Clicking Quality Alert opens a quality alert form on a new page. For a complete guide on how to fill out quality alert forms, view the documentation on quality alerts.

On a work order

When configuring a QCP that is triggered during manufacturing, a specific work order can also be specified in the Work Order Operation field on the QCP form. If a work order is specified, a Take a Picture quality check is created for that specific work order, rather than the manufacturing order as a whole.

Take a Picture quality checks configured for work orders must be completed from the Shop Floor module. To do so, begin by navigating to Manufacturing ‣ Operations ‣ Manufacturing Orders. Then, select an MO that includes a work order for which a Take a Picture quality check is required.

On the MO, select the Work Orders tab, and then click the Open Work Order (external link icon) button on the line of the work order to be processed. On the resulting Work Orders pop-up window, click the Open Shop Floor button to open the Shop Floor module.

When accessed from a specific work order, the Shop Floor module opens to the page for the work center where the order is configured to be processed, and isolates the work order’s card, so no other cards are shown.

Process the work order’s steps until the Take a Picture quality check step is reached. Click on the step to open a pop-up window that includes instructions for how the picture should be taken. After taking the picture, make sure it is stored on the device being used to process the quality check (computer, tablet, etc.).

Then, click the Take a Picture button on the pop-up window to open the device’s file manager. In the file manager, navigate to the picture, select it, and click Open to attach it.

Finally, click Validate at the bottom of the pop-up window to complete the quality check. The pop-up window then moves on to the next step of the work order.

If a quality alert must be created, exit the pop-up window by clicking the X (close) button in the top-right corner.

Then, click the ⋮ (three vertical dots) button on the bottom-right corner of the work order card to open the What do you want to do? pop-up window.

On the What do you want to do? pop-up window, select the Create a Quality Alert button. Doing so opens a blank quality alert form in a new Quality Alerts pop-up window.
