Both of those were excellent responses, Rainer!

I believe you are asking if there are written or accepted levels of solder touch-up.  No, there is no written or accepted level of soldering defects prior to normal touch-up.  We all have different "normal" levels of touch-up and all strive for six-sigma values.  Differences in design, component type and innumerable other variables drive success.  You must support your claims based on your own experience and product and decide what is acceptable for you.

Dear Ramon
But most of the manufacturer can not succedd in full joint soldering , and it is normal for them to touch up after assembly and they may indicate some ppm value according to their experience but we just want to support our claims based on writen or accepted criteria or standard. 
We also want to reach a point where there is no nonwetting opportunity but sometimes some of the pads or soldering region need to be touched up or reworked after assembly Best Regards

Yusuf

personnel, tech support and standardized good equipment that work in a symbiotic relationship. It is hard but it can be done. Toyota manufacturing plants are doing just that even in the U.S. Ego gets in people's way and prevents that from happening. It is a shame. Some people are more preoccupied in bettering themselves than moving the company forward as a whole. Do you know the DPMO to be six sigma?

you send me a board with "nonwetted or insufficient soldered pads" we will reject them.
>        100% of all solder locations must be properly soldered, all the
time, every day, no exceptions. There is no criteria for 'acceptable numbers' for bad solder joints. The circuit will not work or be reliable unless they are all good solder joints. You cannot tolerate bad solder or dewetted surface finishes.

about how much scrap or rework assembly houses make, someone else will have to answer that one... Although it occurs to me that data might be a point of interest to someone trying to set up or run a board shop and figure out the costs of doing business...

not?... I would expect that your Quality Assurance people would have collected this statistic and it would be used as a running gauge for seeing if they had control of their processes and were maintaining them correctly in order to keep those numbers as small as possible with the equipment and methods that they had to work with. The ideal situation would be zero defects, like John Burke says. That would mean your process controls were working.
