Levey Jennings charts with subgroups gives wrong limits

[#1]

Hi,

As indicated in other threads, there are several issues with applying Levey Jennings control charts. But when your data set has subgroups JMP just seems to miscalculate the control limits! The chart generated is for the average within subgroup but the calculated limits are for individual measurements as seen below, giving too wide limits.  It appears that division by the square root of subgroup size is missing from the formula.  

Best regards,

Stefan

I would prefer not to use the Levey Jennings chart. If the process is expected to have between group variation, I would probably use the Three way chart. If not, I would use the X bar and R chart.

Best regards,
