# A Step to Quality

## Getting Reject Counts

You will need to complete the **performance** steps prior to start measuring quality, as this is the measure of good products minus rejected products. For this part, the important part is getting the data about **reject counts** into TilliT. This is to assess how much are you passing or failing your products.

For best results, you need to read local data sources with a TilliT Edge device or Integrate via API/MQTT.

However, this can also be added via an operator completing an Activity (see [activity-templates](https://help.tillit.cloud/tillit/knowledge-base/setting-up-tillit/activity-templates "mention"), be sure to choose "Order Reject" as the item type).
