Options

The Capability Scorecard dialog is about assigning your data columns to roles. There are two required roles and two optional ones.

Column Roles

Role Required Description
Number of Units Yes How many units were inspected for each row
Number of Defects Yes How many defects were found in those units
Number of Opportunities No Defect opportunities per unit. When no column is assigned (or a row's value is not a positive number), the row uses 1 opportunity per unit, so DPO and DPMO are per unit.
Name No A label for each row (part, process step, line). When no column is assigned, or a row's name cell is empty, that row is labeled with its row number.

Row Validation

A row is skipped entirely when its Number of Units or Number of Defects is missing, non-numeric, or not greater than zero. Skipped rows do not appear in the table, the totals, or the Pareto charts.

Output

The tool writes one Capability Scorecard table with a row per part (Name, Number of Units, Number of Defects, Number of Opportunities, Total Opportunities, DPU, DPO, DPMO), a Totals row, and two Pareto charts: one ranking the parts by DPU and one by DPMO. Both charts sort descending (ties broken by name in case-sensitive ordinal order, so uppercase letters sort before lowercase) and show every part with no cumulative line. The formulas are on Math Details.
