# What is Item Quality module?

The **Item Quality module** in XoroERP is designed to help businesses define and manage quality classifications for inventory items throughout their supply chain operations. It enables users to assign specific quality types to items being **sold, purchased, received, transferred, or produced**, ensuring inventory visibility and traceability across various modules — particularly in **warehouse management systems (WMS)** and when working with **License Plate Numbers (LPNs)**.

### **Fields & Options**

#### **Item Quality Details**

This section allows users to define the quality types using two fields:

* **Name:**\
  The display name of the quality type (e.g., *New*, *Used*, *Rework*, *Quarantined*). This is the value that appears in dropdowns across relevant modules.
* **Code:**\
  A short identifier for system-level reference. This code can be used in reports, integrations, or automation rules.

Example:

* Name: **Damaged**
* Code: **DMG**

#### **Options (Dropdown Menu)**

* **Delete:**\
  Allows removal of a selected quality type. However, deletion is restricted if the quality type is actively assigned to items or inventory transactions.
* **Show Activity:**\
  Displays a history of changes or usage related to the selected quality type — including edits, usage in transactions, and assignments.

#### **Save Button**

After defining or editing quality values, users must click **Save** to store the changes. No changes take effect until explicitly saved.

### **Use Cases**

The **Item Quality module** allows users to **create and assign quality types** to items across the system. This classification plays a crucial role in operations such as:

* **Sales and Purchases** – tagging items with quality status like *New*, *Refurbished*, *Defective*, etc.
* **Warehouse Operations** – where tracking inventory condition per location is necessary.
* **LPN-Based Inventory** – where items grouped under a License Plate (pallet, box, tote) can carry a unified quality label.

By assigning quality to each item, users can maintain accurate inventory status, support quality-based decision-making, and enhance operational workflows in distribution, manufacturing, and inventory control.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.xorosoft.com/xoroerp-1/admin/item-quality/what-is-item-quality-module.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
