Try another scenario
- Observed defect occurrences (defects)
- 20
- Inspected units (units)
- 1000
- Countable opportunities per unit (opportunities/unit)
- 4

Total opportunities
units*opportunitiesPerUnit.
DPMO
1e6*defects/totalOpportunities.
Symbols and units
- a
- Observed defect occurrences (defects)
- b
- Inspected units (units)
- c
- Countable opportunities per unit (opportunities/unit)
Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.
Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Requires an explicit consistent opportunity definition; no sigma-level conversion, defect severity comparison or defective-unit inference. Supported limits: 0<=defects<=units*opportunities; positive integer denominators.
