Identify exactly which inspection is absent
The sample site requires an item check and a packaging check before release. This is a local synthetic policy, not an industry or legal requirement. Twelve units of lot L-A arrive with a completed item check but no packaging result. Record twelve in custody with all twelve held.
| Requirement | Evidence | State |
|---|---|---|
| Item match | IC-A / reviewer Mei | Passed |
| Packaging check | No result recorded | Required; pending |
| Lot L-A / 12 units | Hold location Q-A | Held; release owner Sam |
Release on evidence, not elapsed time
- Record physical arrival
- Move to identified hold location
- Obtain missing packaging check
- Release owner records decision
- Move released quantity to pick location
A missing, failed or contradictory check keeps the affected quantity held. Investigate the specific check rather than changing the whole lot to passed.
Sam later receives packaging result PC-A: all twelve pass. Record PC-A and Sam’s release before the move. If only a sample was inspected, this worksheet cannot infer a full-lot release: the approved scope must say what the sample supports. No sampling standard is supplied here.
Does a receipt of twelve units alone allow the picker to issue them?
Show the worked answer
No. Before PC-A and release, custody is twelve and held quantity is twelve. After the evidenced release, held quantity is zero and twelve may move to the pick location.
