Introduction

The Aptean Quality Control (QCA) for Food and Beverage (BC) extension simplifies and automates quality control processes in the food and beverage industry. It addresses challenges faced by importers, growers, packers, shippers, distributors, processors, and repackers by providing comprehensive tools for managing certifications, audits, and quality activities.

The extension enables you to create and execute quality checks efficiently. These checks are triggered automatically by specific actions such as document release or posting of documents. Results are instantly accessible, allowing you to address deviations promptly. Configurable quality triggers let you define checks based on your specific operational needs, ensuring alignment with your quality standards and workflows.

The Quality Control App page, a modern enhancement to the extension, offers an intuitive, touch-optimized interface that simplifies the management of quality control checks and actions. It allows you to navigate tasks easily, view all assigned quality control checks and actions in one place, and focus on the information most relevant to your role as per the defined setup.

This app provides clear, detailed information for each quality control check, including its status, source details, assigned team or individual, and creation date. You can enter data directly into quality check lines, with automatic updates reflected in Business Central in real-time. Managing multiple samples is straightforward, as the app displays the required samples according to your quality control plan settings, allowing you to add or review them as needed. Additional observations can be captured by adding comments to individual questions within a quality check, seamlessly updating the data in Business Central.

The extension enhances your ability to perform quality management tasks efficiently and accurately, reducing manual effort with tools that streamline and customize quality checks and actions. This modern, user-friendly solution improves productivity while ensuring compliance with quality standards.

You can access the functionalities of this extension only when the Feature Status field value for this extension is set to Enabled on the Feature Control page after upgrading the version to 2503.2.0.0.
