ISO 9001 Quality Inspection Records
We have some standard quality inspection records. Basically they are spreadsheets that have a checklist for each product we make where we verify our product meets specifications (for example, height, weight, etc) and then we mark down whether it’s passed or not. Do these inspection records need to be considered as controlled documents? Do they need to be given a document number, revision level, and approval? Do they need to be kept on the document control master list?

Do these inspection records need to be considered as controlled documents?
Yes, those spreadsheets are documents in a digital format relevant to your management system. Once filled they became relevant records.
Do they need to be given a document number, revision level, and approval?
They should have an identification (can be a name or number), and they should have a way of distinguishing different versions can be a revision level in the name of the file or any other way, and there should be a way of evidencing approval, maybe an e-mail stating that from the authorized function.
Do they need to be kept on the document control master list?
Yes, they should be there although they are in a digital format.
