# Quality Management in Business Central Version 28

[Read the post](https://www.olofsimren.com/quality-management-in-business-central-version-28/) · Olof Simren (Olof Simren) · 2026-04-08 · 1395 words · tier community · reviewed (checked by Opus)

> Business Central version 28 adds a native Quality Management module for inspecting goods at purchase receipt, production output, assembly output, sales returns and in ad-hoc or scheduled checks. Templates, generation rules, inspection records, result-based usage blocking and quarantine workflows are covered. The extension was not installed automatically on upgrade and had to be added from AppSource.

## Key points

- Inspection templates hold user-defined test codes with value types, accepted ranges and optional lookups to any table; generation rules link templates to items, vendors, customers and processes through table filters
- Inspections can be created automatically on purchase receipt posting, production order finish or assembly completion, or manually for audits and complaints, by item, lot, serial or package number
- Any failed line fails the whole inspection; result setup controls whether failed or pending lots, serials or packages can be sold or consumed
- Workflows can move failed inventory to a chosen location or bin; the author expects standard notification responses can also be added
- Certificate of Analysis, Non Conformance Report and Inspection Report printouts are available from the inspection header; the app had to be installed manually from AppSource after upgrading
