Customer inf record control inspection lot creation

Hi all,
There is this section in SAP that said:
Using customer Info record for a customer/material combination, you can specify whether or not an inspection lot is created before the goods are shipped or after the goods are shipped
The u201Cbefore the goods are shippedu201D u2026 does it means an inspection lot is created AFTER a Delivery Order is created in SD component and BEFORE a Goods Issue?
Likewise, the u201Cafter the goods are shippedu201D, does it means an inspection lot is created AFTER a Delivery Order AND Goods Issue have taken place?
Thanks,
YY

Dear Yong
Using Customer info record you can do delivery inspeciton at any one of the 3 stages
1) Before delivery - Delivery inspection has to be completed for doing the PGI of the delivery document. In this inspection lot is created when Delivery document is saved. PGI is not allowed before the clearance of the lot
2) After delivery - This is after PGI is taken place then the inspection lot is created
3) at customer site - this is when the material reaches the customer
Option 1 has a better control on the system than the option 2 & 3

  • Inspection lot creation not required for intercompany Stock transfer order

    Hi Team,
    The client  does not want system to create inspection lots for inter comapny STO. But for intra STO system does not create the inspection lot and thye are happy with it.
    I have have flagged the indicator "QM not active' for the movement type
    101 entry as below at transaction code OMJJ.
    101  B(goods movement for Purchase Order) X(Stock Transport Order)
    Even after flagging the above indicator, system is still creating the inspection lot at the time of GR for InterCC STO.
    Are you aware any other place to control inspection lot creation for Inter company STO.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Control of Inspection Lot Creation (Lot Summary) in Material Master

    Dear Experts,
    I would like to set the "Control of Inspection Lot Creation" to '1' An inspection lot for each material document and material"
    But according to Help (F1), the lot summary is not supported ship the stock to unrestricted-use for skip lot.
    <If you have made settings for the lot summary, no ship to stock takes place for skip lot. That is to say, the stock type is not immediately changed from "in quality check" to "unrestricted-use".>
    Any idea to solve this problem?
    Thank you very much.
    Regards,
    Wong

    Dear Wong
    If both a skip lot and an automatic usage decision occur, the system performs a ship to stock without posting the material into the quality inspection stock. The ship to stock does not take place during inspection lot summary.
    It seems the '1' An inspection lot for each material document and material" is creating an inspection lot summary by which it is preventing the ship stock movements. I have tested with this and found that this works only for  each material document only
    The solution could be run a program in the backgroud setting the automatic UD so that the skip lots are cleared at the earliest. you can do this with the help of QA17, QA16

  • Quality inspection lot creation at  GIR

    Dear MM/QM guru's........
    Can you explain me in bref wat are the customizing setting in Quality managemnt and MM for creation of inspection lot the moment you go GIR and how to release the inspection lot..
    Reagrds
    SARFRAZ

    hi sarfrazny,
    first you have to activate the QM view in material and activate the inspection type in the material master .
    inspection plan to be prepared
    as soon as you process the the GIR a inpection lot will be created for which you have to record the result .
    kindly look into this
    <b>Inspection for a Goods Issue</b>
    Purpose
    The system can automatically create an inspection lot when a goods issue is posted in the system. A goods issue can be posted internally (for example, a material withdrawal from the warehouse) or to an external destination (for example, a goods issue to a customer). In a goods issue, the materials are usually withdrawn from unrestricted-use stock and posted to a cost center, project, customer, or other account assignment object. When the system creates an inspection lot for a goods issue, the inspection lot is not stock relevant.
    Prerequisites
    The system creates an inspection lot automatically for a goods issue if the following conditions have been met:
    In Customizing for Inspection Lot Creation (Inspection for a Goods Movement) QM is active for the movement type.
    QM is active for the material. This means that in the inspection settings of the material master:
    In Customizing for Inspection Lot Creation (Inspection for a Goods Movement) QM is active for the movement type.
    An inspection type is active for inspection lot origin 02 (goods issue)
    The other indicators for the inspection type are set appropriately to meet your requirements for inspection processing (for more information, see Processing Inspection Settings)
    Process Flow
    The system creates an inspection lot automatically when the goods issue is posted in Materials Management (MM).
    If the inspector will record results for inspection characteristics (controlled by the inspection settings in the material master), the system assigns an inspection specification (for example, a task list or material specification) to the inspection lot. If the system cannot find a specification or if more than one inspection specification is assigned to the material, you must assign a specification to the inspection lot manually.
    If dynamic modification criteria are defined for the inspection lot origin or task list usage, the system checks the existing quality level for the material (and the other criteria, if applicable):
    If a quality level is not available, the system creates one.
    If the dynamic modification rule specifies that the quality level must be updated when the usage decision is made, the system does not update the quality level now.
    If the dynamic modification rule specifies that the quality level must be updated when an inspection lot is created, the system updates the quality level now.
    The system calculates the sample size.
    If the sample calculation must be triggered manually (controlled by the inspection settings in the material master), you must call up the inspection lot in the change mode and choose the function to trigger the sample calculation manually.
    If you are going to inspect the goods in the inspection lot using an inspection specification:
    The system can print out the inspection instruction and/or sample-drawing instruction automatically when the inspection lot is created
    You can print out the inspection instruction and/or sample-drawing instruction manually when you call up the inspection lot in the change mode
    Result
    You can use the information in the sample-drawing instruction and inspection instruction as a guide to:
    Draw and prepare the samples at the work centers specified for each operation
    Inspect the goods in the inspection lot
    Record characteristic results and/or defects
    When you have finished recording inspection results and/or defects, you can complete the inspection.
    Result
    When you have finished recording inspection results and/or defects, you can complete the inspection.

  • Inspection lot creation logic related movement type

    Dear QM Guru,
    I'm newly for QM module
    I would like to know how config of movement type and lot origin under below config relate to inspection lot creation.
    Quality Management>Quality Inspection>Inspection for Goods Movements-->Movement Type/Update Control/Inspection Lot Origin
    i try to delete all record of customized movement type 949 that i think it copy from movement type 501 in this customizing then try to GR with this movement type, so system still generate inspection as normal.
    then i re-insert the movement back into this customizing again then i wonder that system automatic fill in lot origin for me and this field also gray that not changeable
    how system know the appropriate lot origin for this customized movement type?
    Please anyone explain to me.
    Thank in advance
    Konnapa

    Hi,
    Inspection lot origins are assigned to movement types in standart. The assignment is hardcoded and cannot be changed. In this customization step you can only see the origin assigned. When you copy movement types from standart the assigned inspection origin also gets copied, and you also cannot chenge this assignment.
    What you can do is to activate inspection for each movement type, or to customize selection of the inspection type within the inspection origin assigned.
    Regards.

  • Inspection Lot Creation after GR

    Dear PP/QM Masters,
    I have question regarding inspection lot creation after goods receipt.
    There will be GR once at the end of the shift with batch number. As batch generated during shift will be different, there will be multiple GR entry. But for every material only one result recording per shift is required and not for all batches generated. So, how to avoid creation of so many inspection lot? Automatic Inspection lot creation is required hence no question of manual creation of inspection lot.
    I checked function module ‘QAPP_CUST_IP_CREATE’ for inspection point functionality but its description “You can use the available function module to generate inspection points for the inspection during production already when the inspection lot is created.” Can I use function module ‘QAPP_CUST_IP_CREATE’ for restricting creation of inspection lot after GR?
    Request all Masters to help me in solving this.
    Thanks and regards,
    Devang

    Dear All,
    First of all thanks a lot for your response.
    I checked ‘Control Inspection Lot’ setting but even that can not solve my problem as in our case though GR with confirmation will be once in a shift (though in system shift is not defined) but batches will be different and hence material document will be separate. And requirement is to have single inspection lot per shift even if batches and material documents are separate.
    One option is to have multiple line items for GR in MB31 or MIGO or in COR6N. But all this transaction allows only one line item for GR against process order. So, can you suggest any function module or option to have multiple line items for GR.
    Thanks and regards,
    Devang

  • Inspection lot creation for inspection type 05

    Hi Gurus,
    We have finished material FERT & semifinished material HALB.We have assigned insp. type 02 & 05 in material master of matl. HALB.When we create production order for FERT & confirm the order , inspection lot is generated for matl.HALB of inspection type 02.
    Now we are reversing the goods issue by movement type mb1a, movement 262.In customizing for movement 262 inspection lot origin 05 is assigned.
    My problem is that when i reverse the goods issue with mvmt.262, inspection lot is not created for insp. type 05. What should be the reason behind this? or are any changes to be done to above setting?
    Regards
    Ram

    Hi Ram,
    Just check the SPRO setting SPRO---> Quality Management ->Quality Inspection->inspection lot creation--->inspection for goods movement --->deactivate quality inspection for a movt type.
    Here against movt type 262 uncheck the QM not active tick.
    It will solve your problem.

  • Inspection lot creation during STO return

    Hello Gurus,
    is there a trick to trigger inspection lot creation during STO return ?
    Scenario is the following:
    1 - Creation of STO
    2 - Supplying plant ships materials... stock in transit
    3 - Receiving plant receives materials
    4 - Materials with defects -> Receiving plant add new line with return tick on the same material
    5 - GI from Receiving plant... stock in transit
    6 - Supplying plant receives materials -> Inspection lot has to be created
    I used inspection type 08 on Receiving plant w/o success.
    Many thanks.
    Stéphane

    No inspection lot is created when we return Materials to Vendor (Plant A) even if we maintain Inspection type 02.
    Before STO customizing, Plant B creates a subcontracting purchase order. Next Materials are sending to Vendor (Plant A) and put in "Stock provided to vendor" (Transaction ME2O).
    Vendor (Plant B) creates a Repair request (Sales document / Transaction VA01). Next run VRRE to reveice Materials to repair. Inspection lot is automatically created. The usage decision triggers the creation of Service order to manage all the repairing flow. Last step is to deliver Materials to Plant A and create Repair invoice.
    Repair request supports all repairing flow (inspection lot, service oder...), especialy status (out of warranty or not).
    After STO customizing, I expected the following result:
    1° - Return STO to Vendor (Plant A) / ME21N with return tick
    2° - Plant B ships Materials / MIGO wih 101 (SAP converts in 161)
    3° - Stock in Transit
    4° - Materials receive to Vendor (Plant B) / VL10B
    5° - Creation Inspection lot
    6° - UD triggered Service order creation
    7° - ...Repairing flow with Service order...
    8° - Materials ship to Plant B
    9° - Repair invoice
    10° - Stock in Transit
    11° - Plant B receives Materials
    As I said, there are 2 blocking points:
    - Inspection lot not created when Vendor receives Materials
    - Service order not created automatically (because no Repair request to support inspection lot, service order...)
    Thanks a lot for your help.
    Tell me if you have any questions.

  • Inspection type 01 - inspection lot creation based on vendor batch number

    Hi Guys,
    this topic has been discussed several times here, but I was not able to find a suitable answer for my question.
    I am facing the folowing requirement:
    I have activated inspection type 01 for a raw material.
    I am receiving a firs goods receipt from vendor A with vendor batch number 0001.
    The system creates its own goods receipt batch number 0546 based on internal numbering.
    A new inspection lot is created.
    I am posting a second goods receipt from vendor a with vendor batch 0001.
    The system creates a new batch number 0547 based on internal numbering.
    A new inspection lot is created.
    I do not want to get the second inspection lot, because I received vendor batch 0001 before and I am assuming it has been inspected or is in inspection.
    Option 1: Post the second goods receipt against the first internal batch number created.
    I am aware of this need at the moment, but a user is not always checking if there is an internal batch with the same vendor received before.
    Can I customize the system to create inspection lots based on the fact that the vendor batch number was received before?
    Or do I have to use an exit and some ABAP code to get the wanted result?
    Thanks for your advice in advance.

    You need to use one of the enhancements that Do-Wook has suggested.  There is no standard SAP way to suppress the inspection based on the vendor batch number.
    With the first enhancement you use the system to check for a previously received vendor batch and if one is found, then that batch number is proposed and not the next one from the numbering series.  In this case, the lot isn't created than due to the inspection lot control of the inspection type.
    With the second enhancement you check the vendor batch number and if it's been received you suppress the inspection lot creation and the stock goes right to unrestricted.
    You'll probably need to do one or the other.  Myself, I prefer the first enhancement.

  • Inspection lot creation based on "right" inspection plan version

    I manage inspection plan ( inspection lot origin 01 ) with Change number; in this way I have differents inspection plan version based on date.
    When I do a Good Entry based on purchase order , I need that system creates inspection lot version based on the purchase order creation date and not , as now, based on good entry date
    Is it possible ?
    When I create the purchase order I send to vendor also the inspection plan characteristich that have to be maintened ; for this reason I need to find same characterist during good entry inspection

  • Updating of QM info structures on the basis of inspection lot creation date

    Dear Gurus,
    Our business requirement is as follow:
    Suppose MM has received 10 consignment of a material (Goods receipt) against a material in month of Feb-2008 from a particular vendor.
    Inspection lot statistics in MCXA is updated on the basis of inspection lot generation, which is as per our requirement.
    Suppose this inspection take 2 days for analysis at laboratory.
    Now FI has to make payments for the month of Feb-2008 against this inspection results. They need the value of average quality parameter for the month of Feb-2008. (Average value of all quality parameter for the material of all the inspection lot which are generated in Feb-2008)
    I want that QMIS should update on the basis of Inspection Lot creation date not on the basis of result recording system date.
    I think there should be some configuration settings available for this purpose.
    Please help me out.

  • Early Inspection Lot Creation on Goods Receipt

    I work for a company that melts steel into batches referred to as Heats.  Each of these Heats are processed through various steps to create tubing.  In the tubing operations multiple Heats are applied to production orders but the integrity of each Heat is always maintained.  If we do a Goods Issue for 6 Heats into a production order, we expect to do a Goods Receipt of 6 Heats from that production order and inherit all of the Heat related characteristics for each Heat processed.  At certain points we do laboratory tests for chemisties and properties of each Heat.  These tests are run while the order is being processed through other operations but need to be recorded against the batch.  We are thinking that we need to do Goods Receipt Inspection with Early Inspection Lot Creation.  It looks like this method will create a single Inspection Lot upon release of the Production order.  Is there a way to create multiple Inspection Lots that will correspond to Heat batches prior to the actual Goods Receipt?

    6 partial GR (Heats) are done against 1 production order? Then, you will have one inspection lot and one usage decision for the entire lot (03 / 04: Goods Receipt Inspection with Early Inspection Lot Creation.).
    Think this: Each heat can be one sample/ inspection point each, in case of early goods receipt. So, if you have 6 samples: 3 pass and 3 fails, then do the Usage decision on 3/6th of the quantity at the end of the test: this needs to done manual stock psting while doing the UD.
    So, you do the inspection at the sample levels, but not at multiple inspection lot level.
    There is a way to create mutiple inspection lots on partial GR for the same process order.
    The logic lies like this, if your previous inspection lot is reset on usage decision, then you will get a new inspection lot when doing a partial GR.
    If the UD is not reset case:
    (a) Usage decision open: It will increase the QI stock in the same inspection lot. This means no new inspection lot creation.
    (b) Usage decision done: It will post to unrestricted, thinking that the rest of the sample is OK!! So, again no new inspection lot creation.
    This I tried on 04 inspection type. I am not sure on 03. Hope this helps!!

  • Inspection lot creation during GR with respect to Purchase Order

    Dear Experts,
    Here is my Question
    Inspection lot creation during GR with respect to Purchase Order
    Inspection type 01 set in the material master
    inspection lot will be created during GR for a Purchase order
    from my understanding for every GR a inspection lot will be created
    No batch Management
    but the requirement is irrespective to GR qty and number of times of GR
    we need inspection only one inspection lot
    For Instance
    There is a PO for 1000 kg no batch management
    now i do GR for 100 kg for 10 times with different dates
    now i need to have only one inspection lot
    not 10 inspection lot for each 100 kg
    can any one suggest a solution, please advise my understanding is correct
    Many thanks
    Raj

    Dear Raju,
    There is a solution for that .The setting can be done two ways, either in the material master or in the configuration
    1) Material Master
    MM02> QM View> Inspection Setup> 01> Control Insplot> 'X' An inspection lot for each purchase order item/order item 0r  An inspection lot for each material document and material
    a) 'X' An inspection lot for each purchase order item/order item
    This Means
    This setting is limited for use with the inspection lot origins 01 and 04.
    An inspection lot is only created during the first goods receipt for each PO item or production order.
    b) '1' An inspection lot for each material document and material
    If you set this indicator, the system creates only one inspection lot for a material document (in a goods receipt transaction) for each material. This setting is useful, if several purchase orders or partial deliveries are processed for the same material in a goods receipt transaction.
    2) You can do this default in the config
    SPRO > Quality Management >  Quality Inspection > Inspection lot creation >  Define Default values for inspection type > 01> Control Insp lot
    Hope this helps
    Regards

  • Manual Inspection lot creation

    Hi,
    In our scenario, there is customer inspection which is done after the final inspection.
    For this I have configured manual inspection lot creation after the final inspection.
    I expect that if a lot exists for a Sales order, it should not allow PGI for delivery.
    How can I set this?
    Regards
    Ramakanth

    With manual inspection, it may not be possible.But it possible by using standard inspection type 10.For this activate the insp type 10 in material master QM view and create the master data (insp plan). or you can use the same inspection as used for 04 insp type.For this do necessary config changes.Also in QM config, assign insp lot origin 10 to the delivery type used by SD(Std is LF).
