To raise a FAIR record for a Supplier, please do the following:

  1. Click Quality then click Supplier Quality Menu.

  2. Click Supplier F.A.I.R then press F4 to create a new log.

  3. Enter in your part number - as this is a Supplier FAIR this will be a Bought In part.

  4. Tick the 'Supplier F.A.I.R' box and enter in the Supplier Code and Purchase Order number for the chosen part.

  5. Set the F.A.I.R expiry type then click OK to close the F.A.I.R log.

At this point the F.A.I.R has been created and is considered open - this means that the F.A.I.R is currently not 'Valid'. In order to make the F.A.I.R valid you will need to do the following:

  1. Navigate back to the Supplier F.A.I.R window by following steps 1-3 above

  2. Search for your F.A.I.R number and press F5

  3. In the 'Status' drop down menu change 'Open' to closed and press F5 in the 'Result' field

  4. Here you will need to create your Result code. Once this has been done click Select

  5. Click OK to close the F.A.I.R

To create a customer F.A.I.R please do the following:

  1. Click Quality then click Customer Quality Menu.

  2. Click Customer F.A.I.R then press F4 to create a new Customer F.A.I.R.

  3. Here enter in your Part Number - this will usually be a Manufactured Part.

  4. Tick the 'Customer F.A.I.R' tick box.

  5. Enter in the 'Customer Account', 'Customer Group' (If Required) and the 'Works Order No:'.

  6. Set the F.A.I.R expiry type and click OK.

  7. To close the F.A.I.R to make it valid please follow the same steps as above however this time search for your Customer F.A.I.R.

You should now have a Valid F.A.I.R for both your Customer and Supplier.
Please note that if you tick both the 'Customer' and 'Supplier' tick boxes this will create a Valid F.A.I.R for Production and the Purchasing of the part.
​
To check if you now have a Valid F.A.I.R for manufacturing (Customer F.A.I.R) please do the following:

  1. Click Stock then click Stocked Parts Menu.

  2. Click Stocked Parts then search for your part that has a closed F.A.I.R.

  3. Click Options then press F5 in the 'Inspections' column.

  4. Click Manufacturing Inspection then click Check to check if you now have a Valid F.A.I.R.
