8D Report Automotive

Use
You can use this function to store corrective measures for causes rather than for errors, as is
common in the automotive industry.
You can now store the corresponding defect cause in the item details of the quality
notification in the detailed data for the correction task. The system proposes the causes for the
selected item here. You can also store information about the effect of the cause.
In addition, you can define how much a cause is involved in a defect in the detailed data for
the cause.
You can use theCreate 8D Report Automotive action to send an 8D report to different partner
roles. This action uses the PDF form QM_QN8D_REP_AUTO. You use the code group to
specify which data populates the PDF form.
