Reject Cause: Dimension Drift (Laser calibration drift)
6-Step Scrap Workflow
Follow the regulated path of reject logging, reason classification, EHS bin segregation, and vendor manifest reconciliation.
Reject Capture
Floor defect logging
Log out-of-spec products or raw materials instantly at assembly stations, referencing SKU and batch numbers.
What happens in this step
- Scan barcode or QR code to link reject to active job and SKU
- Record reject quantity, operator ID, and workstation number
- Auto-timestamp each entry against shift schedule for accountability
- Attach photo evidence of defect directly from mobile or floor terminal

The questions we hear most.
Can this track hazardous waste manifests?+
Yes. The platform supports EPA hazardous waste manifests, allowing EHS managers to track regulatory codes, certified disposal methods, and digital signature records.
How does the digital scale integration work?+
Line terminal apps connect directly to dock scales or weight indicators via local network protocols, logging weight readings to scrap records automatically.
What happens when a vendor cargo weight doesn't match our logged weight?+
The manifest is quarantined in our Exception console. A supervisor receives an alert to resolve the variance before final reconciliation is synced.
Does this sync with financial systems for cost allocation?+
Yes. Approved scrap logs calculate raw cost loss and push the entries directly to line or SKU accounts in SAP or NetSuite for direct cost accounting.
Most engagements span more than one practice.
