Taskade Genesis captures every scrap event at the source, links it to the job, material lot, and operator, and rolls it up into a yield report automatically — so your cost-of-poor-quality number is always live, not a month-end surprise.
What Is Scrap & Yield Tracking Automation?
Scrap and yield tracking automation records each rejected unit or batch, categorises the failure mode, links it to the originating process step, and feeds aggregated yield data into dashboards and alerts without manual entry.
Why Use Scrap & Yield Tracking Automation?
Untracked scrap hides real process performance and inflates material costs invisibly until the financial close.
- Point-of-rejection capture: Operators log scrap via a quick form; AI agents categorise the failure mode using 34 built-in tools and persistent memory of past patterns.
- Job-level linking: The Relationship field connects each scrap record to the production order, material lot, and process step.
- Live yield dashboard: A Table view aggregates first-pass yield and scrap rate by line, product, and shift in real time.
- Cost roll-up: Each scrap event is priced automatically using the material and labour cost data in your database.
- Threshold alerts: When scrap rate exceeds a set threshold, an escalation notification fires to the supervisor via 100+ integrations.
Who Should Use Scrap & Yield Tracking Automation?
- Production operators who need a fast way to log rejects without leaving the line.
- Quality engineers analysing first-pass yield and running SPC charts.
- Cost accountants calculating cost of poor quality by product line.
- Continuous improvement teams prioritising waste reduction projects.
- Operations directors comparing yield performance across sites or shifts.
How To Automate Scrap & Yield Tracking?
- Clone the Scrap & Yield Tracker from /automate and configure your product and failure categories.
- Connect the rejection form to the automations execution layer to auto-link records.
- Link scrap events to production orders and material lots via the Relationship field.
- Activate AI agents to generate daily yield summaries and surface top failure modes.
- Share the live yield dashboard with production and finance teams.
