FSM integration
Quality Issue Management (QIM) integrates with Field Service Management (FSM) to support quality actions that require on-site intervention. When a Non-Conformance (NC) or Quality Investigation (QI) record identifies a need for field verification, containment, or corrective repair, you can create an FSM work order directly from within QIM without switching applications.
Key capabilities:
- Create FSM work orders from NC and QI action plans, including containment and correction actions
- View FSM specific fields within the correction and containment action forms in QIM
- Monitor real-time FSM work order status from the QIM record
- View field progress and completion details without leaving QIM
- Avoid premature closure of QIM records when linked FSM work orders are incomplete
Use this integration when a quality issue requires physical on-site activity to resolve — for example, when a non-conformance requires a field inspection to confirm the defect, when containment actions must be carried out at a customer or production site, or when corrective actions involve repair or replacement work that field technicians perform.
