Alloy Wheel 17in — Finish & Acceptance Specification

Alloy Wheel 17in — Finish & Acceptance Specification

1. Purpose

Define the controlled finish and acceptance framework for the purchased 17-inch alloy wheel while preserving batch traceability.

2. Controlled item

ERP item ITM-RAW-LOT — Alloy wheel 17in, batch controlled. Base UOM EA; BUY; inventory and sellable flags active; lot control enabled.

3. Requirements

Each received batch must retain its lot identity. Surface finish must be free from unacceptable visible defects under the approved inspection criterion. Packaging and handling must preserve finish condition through receipt and inspection. This specification does not override the Incoming Inspection Procedure.

4. Verification and acceptance

Acceptance is documented through the controlled incoming-inspection process using the approved criterion. Where a numeric or visual limit is not stated in this specification, the inspector must use the current approved controlled criterion rather than infer one from a prior result.

5. Nonconformance

Nonconforming quantities remain controlled and are routed for release, return, scrap or other approved disposition according to the Nonconforming Material & Quality Disposition Procedure.

6. Records and traceability

Retain item code, lot identity, receipt/source transaction, inspection record and disposition evidence.

7. Notes

Version 2 corrects the control conflict identified during review of v1 and is the first published version.

Identification and traceability

The item must remain identifiable by its approved item reference and, where applicable, lot, batch, receipt or other traceability information. Packaging, handling and inspection records should preserve that identity so that a later quality decision can be related to the correct material or component.

Acceptance and nonconformance

Acceptance decisions are made using the current approved criteria and the applicable inspection procedure. A passing historical result is evidence about that inspection; it is not itself a specification limit. Where a requirement cannot be evaluated or a controlled criterion is unavailable, the affected material remains under quality control until the issue is resolved.

Handling and preservation

Material should be protected from avoidable damage, contamination, deterioration or mixing that could affect its intended use or make traceability unreliable. Any observed condition that could affect conformity is recorded and evaluated before release.

Change control

Technical changes to this specification are reviewed and approved through the controlled-document process. The effective version at the relevant business time governs new inspections and acceptance decisions unless an explicitly authorized deviation applies.
