Manual Inspection Lot creation using Serial Numbers

Hi,
My requirement is to create inspection Lot for Serialized material manually.There is no trigger like Goods Receipt or Issue. I want to assign Serial number for the inspection lot to record the results. When I check the transaction QA01, I can only create it at Material level. Is there any standard way I can achieve this requirement?
I assigned the Serialized Profile and checked the check box " Serial Number Management Possible" in QM view of material master. Thanks.

Hi Tim,
There is a better way of capturing the Serial Numbers for each result recording by using the Inspection Point in the Inspection Plan.
You may create New Inspection Point in the configuration for the Serial Numbers assignment.
I hope that this will meet your requirement.

Bala

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?

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).

QM - Manual Inspection lot with serial no.

I want to manage manual inspection lot for material & serial no.
I defined the material as serial no. but no serial field excite.
Thanks

Hi ,
As serial numbers are used for inventory maintenance therefore when you create manual inspection lot there is no field for serial number maintenance.
But the results you can manitain with serial numbers.

No equipment or serial no. in manual inspection lot

Hi All,
I have maintained 2 user status servicable & unservicable for my serialized equipments in refurbishment processing. In the process after work completed when I move the material to quality and create the manual inspection lot thru qa01 and done the usgae decision as accepted, equipment status should be changed to unservicable to serviacble. For this I am using Function Module EXIT_SAPMQEVA_010 but my problem is in inspection lot I am not able to get equipment no. or serial no. so that I can change the user status.
Can anyone please put some light on how I can get the equipment no. or serial no. in inspection lot?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
For automatic user status change :
SPRO>Quality Management>Quality Inspection>Inspection Lot Completion>Define Follow up Actions
In follow up actions select QM_PM and double click on Function Modules. Now Uncheck the Sync Update and the AfterPosting Indicator to manually Complete the Order.
In the aboev path you can create a Z Function Module which picks eqpt no from EQUI by giving material no as input andin that you can change user status using FM STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN[This is used to set or delete User Status]

Multiple result recording for Manual inspection Lot using inspection point

I want to record inspection result for inspection type 89 against *inspection point*. Then I create new inspection point and assign it in quality plan. Then I have done the multiple result recoding against one manual inspection lot in DEV server. But when it is going to QAS server then error is coming during result recoding. Error is "The results transaction cannot be used for
inspection" Message no. QE094.
Plz give me the solution to record the result.

Reason is very simple : the the inspection point definition in the task list header is incompatible with the sampling procedure assigned to the characteristic.Make sure that you select the appropriete radio button in QDV1 while creating sampling procedure and assign the same against each of the MIC's in the task list.
Make sure that the sample tab in QA02 is pressed while assigning the inspection specification & status of the lot is REL

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 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

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 quantity in manual inspection lot (T.Code-QA01)

Dear Experts,
I have activated inspection setup "89" with lot origin '89".I have activated this inspection set up to a material in QM view.
When i want to create a manual inspection lot through T.Code QA01, the inspection lot quantity is a required field. But i do not want to enter a quantity here. I want to create manual inspection lot without quantity. Is it possible?
If yes, please suggest how to proceed.
Your help is highly appriciable.
Regards
Vivek

hi
Use User Exit :QPL10001
Description
    You can use this enhancement to change all the fields when creating an
    inspection lot. The function module is only run once.
    You must be careful when using this enhancement since this can lead to
    inconsistencies in inventory management. For example, if you change the
    quantity fields.
Logic:
Logic will be when you are using a specific Material say MATNR : xyz .......then disable the Qty field LOSMENGE.
I hope this will help you

Inspection Lot Creation after UD

Dear PP/QM Masters,
I have question regarding inspection lot creation after UD for the same batch number.
There will be several GR during one shift for one SKU with the same batch number.
F.E. shift (6 am to 2 pm) at 7 there will be first GR of finished good. Inspection lot is automaticly created and QA at 9 will make UD for this lot. If production will made GR after that a new inspection lot will be created for the same production batch.
Is there any possibility to make only one inspection lot even if UD is taken.
Thanks and regards,

I guess what bothers me is that for your selection of "2" you include date. Our standard SAP system does not include date on that key choice. Just material/batch/storage location.
I re-tested one just to be sure. Created a new process order for 30. Reveived 15. Got an 04 inspection lot created. Processed the lot, posted out the 15 to unrestricted and made the UD with an Accept code.
Then I GR another 10. These went straight to unrestricted as I expected. Then I posted the final 5 in a 3rd GR. Same result.. straight to unresticited.
I'm not sure why your not seeing the same. Again, seeing that 'date' in your number # choice is bothersome. If some modified that to include the date of receipt and included the time stamp in that, then your going to get new inspection lots.
Are you sure they didn't post it to a different batch on the second or third posting. And of course, this does refer to the same process order.. correct? You not using three different process orders for this are you?

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.

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
