Restrict Equipment creation after Defect Recording

Hi,

I didn't deal with QM and sorry if this question itself wrong.

As per client, system creation a Equipment number during result recording and this is happening in case of 'Defect' in result recording. This need to restrict.

Means, in case of 'Defect' in result recording, system should not create any Equipment for that. Is there any possibility to achieve this either with Config changes or any option.

Thanks in advance and Regards,

Syed Hussain.
