Process Failure Mode Setup

There are three setup tables where process failure modes can be configured. Before setting up failure modes, it is important to first understand how each table works.

Setup	Description
Process Failure Modes	Set up any failures that could occur for any operations (internal/external) under this setup table (Delivery, Quantity Failures).
Standard Operation Failure Modes	Set up any failures that could occur for any operations attached to the associated standard operation (standard operation specific failures).
Operation Failure Modes	Set up any failures that could occur only for the specified operation.

Example Process Failure Mode Matrix

Setup	Severity	Failure Mode Category	Operation	Exception Type
Unauthorized Activity	HIGH	Internal Fraud	All Operations	All
Theft and Fraud	HIGH	Internal Fraud	All Operations	All
Systems Security	HIGH	External Fraud	All Operations	All
Injury	HIGH	Workplace Safety	All Operations	All
Natural Disaster	HIGH	Asset Damage	All Operations	All
All failure modes above are set up under the Process Failure Mode setup table. No matter which Process (Operation) is selected, all failure modes above will be displayed.
Equipment Failures	HIGH	Downtime	MFG Operations	All
Setup and Adjustments	HIGH	Downtime	MFG Operations	All
Idling and Minor Stoppage	HIGH	Speed Loss	MFG Operations	All
Reduced Speed Operation	HIGH	Speed Loss	MFG Operations	All
Scrap and Rework	HIGH	Defect Loss	MFG Operations	All
Startup Loss	HIGH	Defect Loss	MFG Operations	All
All failure modes above are set up under the Standard Operation Failure Mode setup table for MFG Operations. These failure modes will only be displayed for operations selected which belong to this standard operation.
Wrong Label	HIGH	Visual	Labeling	All
Missing Barcode	HIGH	Visual	Labeling	All
The failure modes directly above (Wrong Label, Missing Barcode) would be set up under the Failure Mode Setup table under the Injection Moulding operation. This failure mode would show up as an applicable failure only for this specific operation.
