Attachements in material inspection of Advanced Returns Management

Hi Gurus,
there is a button in material inspection of advanced returns management (ECC 6.0 EHP4) to upload attachements.
I assume, that they use Archive Link funktionality to store the attachements.
Does someone know, what's to customize (if Archive Link: which Business Object and document type) so that I can upload the attachments ?
Regards
Michael Benner

Hello,
I've got the solution for the problem fron the SAP.
If a content repository A2 (in transaction OAC0) is configured it's possible to store attachments to the material inspection.
A configuration for a specific business object and/or document type is not nessessary. It works just with the content repository A2.
Michael.

Incorrect Return PO Quantity in Advance Returns Management

Hi,
Issue Description - Return Sales order is created to process returns for multiple materials. In Returns sales order, Return Reason, Follow up Action(Ship to Vendor) and Refund controls are keyed in. Note that Advance Returns Management is activated. Returns delivery gets created and inspection is done on the GR line items. On saving the inspection, a Return PO to the Vendor is getting created. Issue is Return PO is getting created with correct quantiy for the first line item but for the second line item, the quantity is getting increased. No customization has been done. Tried to identify the bug through debugging but didnt materialise. Can any one help with any note or corrective action available for the same?
Thanks

Hi
Try to do a trace with ST05 and check if any userexit, VOFM, BADI or enhancement is working. I do it when debugging sessions are expensive in time. If you need any other advice, don't hesitate, tell me.
I hope this helps you

Disable inspection on Advanced returns

Hi Experts
The client that I am working with has an external WM system and the inspection is also going to be performed by the external system.
Is it possible to disable the inspection control within the advanced returns?

Issue of Quality Inspection for consignment return delivery

Hello,
I am doing a returns delivery(from a Sales Order) from a Customer Consignment.
I am getting a error when I do a Post Goods Receipt(PGI). QM is active for that material.
The error I am getting is
"Change the inspection stock of material XXX in QM only"
Procedure says
"Check both the QM inspection setup data and the movement type for material XXX in the quality management view of the material master"
The movement type used in the returns delivery is 655(GD returns for QI).
What is the solution for this error. Do I need to change/add new Inspection type based on the Movement type?
Please let me know ASAP.
Thanks
Regards
SAP Fan..

Hi,
You can read this link for inspection for customer return [Inspection for customer return|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/92/b808b1d52a11d2962200a0c930e04c/frameset.htm]
It looks the material master is set-up inspection type with 06 - returns from customer. Also the movement type 655 moves the goods into QI stock. In this case, the Quality personnel needs to change the inspection stock type using transaction code QA32. They will change the usage decision on the customer returns.
Once the change the inspection type is changed, you can do the post goods receipt.

Cannot Record Material Inspection Results as per wiki use case * SOLVED *

=== EDIT ===
Playing around, I solved my issue.
I did not realize that I needed to set both flags
CloseIndicatorSpecified = true;
CloseIndicator = false;
Adding that fixed it; I suspect I cannot set them to null even if the WSDL allows it.
Michel.
=== ORIGINAL POST ===
Hi,
I have a project to integrate SAP and our LIMS using the SAP web services with the Material Inspection business object.
In the Wiki, there are a few [use cases|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/ESpackages/IntegrationofQualityManagementSystems] on the subject.
Following that, I successfully retrieve all the required data using the following web services:
[Find Material Inspection Basic Data by Elements|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ESpackages/FindMaterialInspectionBasicDatabyElements]
[Find Material Inspection Subset Operation by Elements|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ESpackages/FindMaterialInspectionSubsetOperationbyElements]
[Find Subset Operation Inspection Activity Basic Data by Elements|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ESpackages/FindSubsetOperationInspectionActivityBasicDatabyElements]
[Read Subset Operation Inspection Activity|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ESpackages/ReadSubsetOperationInspectionActivity]
From there, I want to record results. According to the Wiki , I should use
[Record Subset Operation Inspection Activity Result|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ESpackages/RecordSubsetOperationInspectionActivity+Result]
I tried directly through the [WS Navigator|http://sr.esworkplace.sap.com/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tcesiespwsnavui/WSNavigator] to test web services. Whenever go through that tho, I get the following error:
Conversion Error: Invalid Input Format (701 SFB)
Obviously, I get the exact same error using c# (at least I'm consistent!)
Below is the code (some is truncated because it is too long but I think you can get the idea).
The question: Can anyone help me understand why I am getting that error? Maybe there is one or more property I don't understand... It would be practical if the actual failing property was identified in the LogItem, but it is not.
Some things I tried (to no avail):
1. Tried all sort of combination for actionCode
2. Removed actionCode and set actionCodeSpecified = false
3. Removed the Measure property
4. Removed the Text property
5. Removed the ChangeStateID
Thanks in advance!
Michel

S_ALR_87012357 - Advance Return for Sales Tax

Hey SAP Gurus,
Is it possible for me to run the report "S_ALR_87012357" for a particular Business Area - right now, the report runs at the Company Code level.
I also noticed that there is an option for "Business Place" but my country is not in the list of allowed countries to avail this feature.
Any suggestion / solution will be greatly appreciated -

Hi Usman,
Find the below details.
Implement the attached correction instructions.
Moreover, the form for advance returns for tax on sales/purchases 2005 is different from the form in 2004:
The key figures (tax group numbers) 54, 55, 57, and 58 have been deleted.
The key figures 52, 53, 60, 73, 74, 84, 85 have been added.
These key figures are also used in the electronic advance return for tax on sales/purchases. Adapt the assignments of your tax codes to the tax group numbers using the following IMG nodes:
"Group together tax base balances"
"Group together tax balances" and
"Assign external tax group to internal tax group" (texts).
You can obtain the nodes using Transaction SPRO, "SAP Customizing Implementation Guide" --> "Financial Accounting" --> "General Ledger Accounting" --> "Business Transactions" --> "Closing" --> "Reporting" --> "Sales/Purchases Tax Returns". Use the tax group version "EDCL" for the electronic advance return for tax on sales/purchases.

ARM - Advanced Return Magnagement in EhP4

I have a few questions regarding the functionality in the Customer Returns.
Is it possible to change the Inspection activity in the transaction MSR_INSP_DISPLAY?
For the follow-up activity u201C0011 Transfer to Free Available Stocku201D in the Inspection in WH (MSR_INSP_DISPLAY ) - does anybody know how configure it in order to make the transfer to Free available stock actually happen?
It is for the time being not possible to terminate the Advanced Return Order. The stock is still blocked after I have done the Goods Receipt in the Returns Delivery (vl02n)?
Additionally I would like to ask if anybody knows how to create a new Follow-up activity as a copy of the existing one and then change it?
Any information about the Advanced Return Mgmt would be helpful.
/MERV

Hi,
We have used advanced returns in our solution design.. I don't think you can create your own follow up activity. I think this is pre-defined. Can you let me know the error that you have faced for return to free stock ?
When you do a returns delivery, the system puts the stock in a blocked stock as per the movement type used. You will need to move the stock to unrestricted stock using a goods movement. However, if you are using a follow on activity, you should be able to move the same to free unrestricted stocks.

Advanced Returns - Return Step (inspectoin document) Unprocessed

When viewing the Returns Overview screen during the advanced returns process, there are a few documents which we are not using in our process, as they are being handled externally. Yet these documents are marked as incomplete (yellow status) within the overview screen, and the overall 'process status' is marked as incomplete (yellow status).
Specifically, the inspection document remains at an unprocessed status, because we are actually doing the inspection with an external WM system.
We're looking for a way to have this inspection documents removed from the returns overview screen, so the overall process status can be marked as completed (green status). Technically the process is successfully completed, but the process status doesnt reflect this in the 'returns overview' screen.
