With Real-Time SPC, you can monitor your defective count data separately,
with one measure per control chart, or together, with several defective types on the same
control chart.
Add separate defective types
If you have a particular defective type that you want to monitor on its own control chart, you must set it up as a defective measure.

- Repeat these steps for all defective measures that you want to monitor separately.
- Save your changes.
Add grouped defective types
If you have multiple defective types that you want to monitor together, aggregated on a single control chart, you must set it up as a grouped defective.
The Inspection process has several types of defectives to monitor together on a single control chart.
