Draft 8D reports for complaints

Reads the customer complaint, gathers order, batch, certificate and inspection data and drafts the 8D report. Quality completes the root cause and signs off.

Problem

A customer complaint starts a search: which order, which batch, which material certificate, which inspection results. The 8D report needs all of it before quality can work on the cause.

What it does

YP links the complaint to the order and batch, pulls the material certificates, inspection records and earlier complaints on the same part and fills the first disciplines of your 8D template. Quality starts from a complete file instead of an empty form.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

Work on the 8D report starts as soon as a complaint arrives. A complaint email or form starts the run, together with the photos and drawings attached to it.

The history behind the complaint is brought together. The order, batch, certificates and inspection records are linked from your ERP and SharePoint.

YP checks whether the complaint is a repeat. Earlier complaints on the same part or from the same customer are listed with their outcomes.

The 8D report is drafted in your own template. YP fills in the problem description under D2. Under D3 it fills in the suspect stock, work in progress and shipments from the same batch.

Your quality team signs off the 8D report. The root cause, the corrective actions and the reply to the customer stay with your quality team.

The outcome

Quality starts each complaint with the facts in one file. Repeat issues show up the moment they return.

For your numbers

YP gathers the order, batch and inspection history behind each complaint, so quality contains suspect stock sooner and answers the customer faster.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
