QM Module

QM Module

The QM (Quality Management) Module serves as the central quality control hub for monitoring and managing scan position accuracy and zone-level quality metrics. This comprehensive system provides real-time quality threshold monitoring, automated rule evaluation, and structured approval workflows. The module integrates seamlessly with the scanning system to ensure data quality and operational excellence through continuous monitoring and management oversight.

The QM Module operates with two integrated components accessible through a unified interface:

  • Scans QM Scans: Individual scan position quality control and verification management
  • Zones QM Zones: Zone-level quality oversight and compliance monitoring

Access Requirements​

Required Roles​

  • Super Admin
  • Team Admin
  • User Admin
  • Team Manager
  • Area Manager

Permission Scope​

  • Project-Based: Access limited to assigned projects
  • Role-Hierarchical: Higher roles have broader access

Job Status Indicators​

  • Refresh Refresh: Refresh to run the rules again and refresh the table below
  • Multi-Level Alerts: Info Info / Notify Notify / Warning Warning levels based on the rules configured in QM Module under Settings
  • Refresh-Sync Sync Required: Quality rules changed, synchronization required

QM Scans Component​

The QM Scans section provides detailed quality control for individual scan positions, allowing managers to review, verify, and approve scan accuracy at the most granular level.

Unapproved - Default state when a rule is triggered​

qm scans

Approved - When a tirggered line is approved​

QM Module Usage Guide​

Getting Started​

  1. Navigate to QM Module via main navigation menu
  2. Check Sync Status in the control panel header
  3. Select Component: Choose between QM Scans or QM Zones
  4. Choose View Mode: Switch between "Unapproved" and "Approved" tabs
  5. Apply Filters: Use filter controls to narrow down results

Managing QM Synchronization​

  1. Monitor Sync Status:

    • Paused: Quality rules have changed, synchronization required
    • Ready: Job is queued and waiting for processing
    • Running: Active synchronization with progress percentage
    • Failed: Error occurred, check error details in tooltip

  2. Synchronize Quality Data:

    • Click Sync Settings when status shows paused
    • Monitor progress percentage during synchronization
    • Wait for completion before performing quality operations
    • Use Refresh button to manually update displayed data
