Multiple Inspection lots

Hi All -
Client does multiple goods receipts for a process order and the requirement is to create multiple inspection lots one at order level and other at each goods receipt level.
Is there any way to generate inspection lot at order level and for every goods receipt for the same process order ?
Please advice..
S

Only if you are using DMR's at the characteristic level to create skip characteristics.
In that case, you put on all the characteristics that need to be tested over the life of the order. Then the DMR makes characteristics optional or required as you prcoess the inspection lots.
The problem usually lies in how to reset all characteristics to the initial level. Characteristics can also get out of sync due to failures. A failed charateristic usually causes the DMR to make the characteristic required on the next inspection. Then it might be "off schedule" with regards to other or similar characteristics. This can be somewhat mitigated by using dependent characteristics so a group of characteristics follow the same DMR.
It works best when you have a very rigid receipt process. I.e. you know for a given material, that you'll do X number of receipts over the life of the order and all the receipts are of the same size.

QM Related (Multiple Inspection Lots)

Dear Gurus,
Can anyone explain me the process of creating mulitple inspection lots.
one way that I knew, is that to setup 'partial lots' in the master recipe and make the system work to create multiple inspection lots.... Are there any other methods to accomplish this?
Thanks

Thanks for your concerns!..
The requirement is that the site is required to create multiple inspection lots (of 03 type - Inprocess inspection type) for the same batch number that is tied to a process order....with the constraint that the process order has and will have only one phase..
Any lights?... Thanks,

How to do single usage decession for multiple inspection lots

we are clearing Usage decision each & every lot for which taking lot of time, if any setting for a GR Document number/Multi GR document nos connected lots to be cleared at a time automitically,

Hi,
In addition to Anupam's reply,
Follow the SPRO path for Auto UD---> Select your plant for AUTO UD settings -
> then go to InspLot completion tab where you need to define following time fields under Automatic Usage Decision tab page :
Delay time for skip lot (in Mins)
Waiting time (hrs) & Waiting time (Mins).
Waiting time is the time which must elapse after inspection lot creation after that only system will carry out automatic usage decision.
Save above settings.
Further as a master data part, you need to maintain tick in Automatic UD check box for the respective material for which you want activate automatic UD.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Revert if still any query.

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!!

Create multple inspection lots at customer returns

Hi all,
at my comany we've the following problem. Customer returns should be posted to insp stock and an inspection lot must be created. When a customer has multiple return from the same batch it should create multiple inspection lots. We use insp 05 for this. But we also use 05 for the receipt of externally produced materials. This should only create one inspection lot. Therefor it's not possible to set the indicator in the inspection setup in the maerial master.
We had a look at inspection type 06, but this is not stock relevant. What is the best way to set this up?
thank for your help.

Its not the delivery I'm concerned about. Its the other 05 lots that he creates via material movements.
If the Z inspection type is assigned to the delivery type as proposed, the Z inspection type still has an 05 inspection origin. It is the origin that SAP links to material movements not the inspection type. As delivered most inspection types match one to one the origin, i.e. an 05 inspection type to an 05 origin. An 04 inspection type to an 04 origin, etc..
When a movement is used that is linked to the 05 inspection orgin and an inspection is called for, the system looks at the material master and attempts to assign an inspection type with an 05 orign. In this case, they'll be two inspection types active with an 05 oriign. The standard 05 and the Z05.
Now it might work if the Z05 is assigned to the delivery type for returns and the 05 inspection type is marked as preferred. Hopefully the Z05 will get used for the deliveries and the 05 for all others But I'm not 100% sure the system will behave exactly that way. I 've never tested that scenario specifically.

Want to create inspection lots during In-House production (shop floor)

Hello,
As per our requirement we need to inspect a material multiple times (3-4 times) during shop floor production. It means we want to check a material say after operation 30, 50, 70 and 110 (of routing). We don't want to start operation 50 unless inspection of material after operation 30 is over. We don't want to start operation 70 unless inspection of material after operation 50 is over and so on.
How can we attain this? We have assigned inspection type 03 in material master - quality management. We have assigned various MICs in concerned operations. Inspection lot is getting generated as soon as the release of production order takes place and it contains all MICs (and operations). We are able to make the result recording and defect recording for all operations at the beginning only.
Is it possible to create multiple inspection lots for these operations and is it [possible to restrict the confirmation of later operation unless inspection of previous operation is over i.e. a usage decision is already carried out for previous operation.

hi puneet,
can u please let me know what miracle u didi to resolve this issue?

Unexpected inspection lot creation

Hello All,
I am using inspection type 04, with a control of '2' (for each material, batch, and storage location). Suddenly the system is creating multiple inspection lots for the same material, batch and storage location. It appears to be creating a new inspection lot for each line item on the sales order (subsequently each new production order). This doesn't seem logical, but regardless I cannot figure out how to make it stop. I only need one inspection lot for each material and batch combination.
Any ideas what coudl be wrong?
Thanks

Thanks for your input. The specfic scenario is that the business is creating a multi-line sales order for the same material. I believe the reason they are doing this has something to do with the order in which the material is to be processed. So each sales order line item creates a unique production order. All the production orders for this sales order are processed at the same time and by the rules of the business receive the same batch number. The requirement is to have just one inspection lot for each material nad batch combination. If I change the 'Control InsLot' to go by each material document then I will have even more inspection lots because they do mant goods receipts to each production order.
If there is no way to configure a new 'Control InsLot' option, do I have any other possible solutions? Employ a user exit?
Thanks,
David

One inspection lot for multiple materials of purchase order line items

Hi All,
My client requirement is one inspection lot for multiple materials of purchase order line items.
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks in advance for early reply.

Jishu

I totally agree with Amol.
I don't think I would touch that development nor would I ever tell a client it could reliably be done through development.
Knowing what I know about the table structures, I don't think you could create any development for this that could use a significant amount of the existing tables and functionality. I think you'd have to create all your own Z tables and basically rebuild the functionality. Tying it back in with SAP data will be difficult.
You're even looking at all custom screens for your results recording and UD as well. And if you have follow-on functions like batch classification requirements, batch determination, COA publication, results copy functions, use of DMR and sampling procedures, physical samples, quality notifications, etc. etc.. you could be looking a whole lot of development.

Multiple notification against single inspection lot (03 inspection type)

Dear friends
While recording the defects multiple times against single inspection lot (03type) , all the defects are added in single notification, but my client requirement is they want different notification. if any body knows please tell me.
Note : in inspection type there is a option of multiple notification against single inspection lot, but this is
not working (i think it will work only serial number,equipment and functional location get changed)
Please do the needful
Regards

Hi Karthikeyan
As you mentioned it is not possible to create notification other than based on the object types.
A work out can be make an action box in the notification for creating another notification with the help of ABAP ( call transaction QM01) and while doing this the entire datas of the inspection lot gets copied into the notification. you may have to use a user exit also.
Defect can be recorded in the item level by the user.
Sounds difficult but certainly possible

Multiple notifications for an Inspection lot

Hello
I would like to create one notification by defect keyed for an inspection lot .
If I work with serial numbers I can create one notification by defect
If I don't use serial numbers , all defects are linked to a single notification even though I remove the tick for "One notification by Inspection lot " in the Inspection lot category customizing ?
I would like to know if there is a way to do that.
Thanks for your help

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

Multiple results recording for Delivery inspection lot

Hi Gurus,
My requirement is to configure for quality results recording for sales delivery document. Where client wants to record Customer, supplier, Umpire, etc results record for inspection characteristics.
I got response from few Sapiens that I should use Inspection point concept for multiple results recording. Could anyone cna tell me how can I do this.
Your help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
Okay!
First of all letu2019s try to understand whether inspection points are really suitable for your requirement or not. Accordingly further errors can be eliminated. I just try to understand.
A- Using Inspection Points
1.     Inspection points are used when you inspect the same parameters again and again.
2.     When you click on results tab in QA32, system asks you put some identification number. Letu2019s say you put A1 and then press enter. Thereafter you record the actual results (LENGTH, WIDTH etc.) You save this without giving UD.
3.     For the next time when you again click on results for the same inspection lot, system again asks you to put identification number. This time suppose you put A2. Then again you record the results (LENGTH, WIDTH) for A2.
4.     Likewise you can retrieve the inspection results from system with respect to inspection point (identification point).
5.     Typically this can be used for chemical industries where you record the temperature of the same chemical after every ½ an hour. Here 10:00 am, 10:30 am can be used as identifications numbers. As a result of which you can get the information that at 10:00 am temperature was 40 Deg and at 10:30 am it was 75 degree Celsius.
If your requirement resembles this situation, then only the use of inspection points would be fruitful.
B- Without Inspection Points
But if you want to record the readings by various agencies like customer, umpire (refer following pattern)and want to compare them there are other ways.
1.     Reading by your inspector
a.     LENGTH u2013 100, 101, 102mm (average is 101mm)
b.     WIDTH     - 10.50, 10.50, 10.60mm (average is 31.6mm)
2.     Reading by customer
a.     LENGTH u2013 100, 101, 102mm (average is 101mm)
b.     WIDTH     - 10.50, 10.50, 10.60mm (average is 31.6mm)
3.     Reading by umpire
a.     LENGTH u2013 100, 101, 102mm (average is 101mm)
b.     WIDTH     - 10.50, 10.50, 10.60mm (average is 31.6mm)
You can achieve this without using inspection points also. For this in QP02 you need to create 3 operation; Inspector, Customer and umpire respectively. Feed the MICs in each of these operations. When you click on result tab system will throw pop up for these 3 operations. Double click on Umpire if you want to record results noted by umpire. Likewise for rest of the operations. You can do this even after UD also (after 1-2 months also). You need to use MIC with control indicator as long term characteristics for this in QS23.
Regarding averaging of results u2013 This can be achieved using single result recording MIC with or without inspection points. Use appropriate sampling procedure. When you feed results in QA32 system automaticaaly averages out the reading. This can be viewable against phi symbol.
Finally you did mention that u201Chere I am not getting the newly created inspection lotsu201D. Does that mean inspection lot (10 origin) has not created?

Anand Rao

Single Inspection lot for multiple line items.

Hi,
We have a scenario while receiving goods.We receive boxes and want to print labels.For eg we have a Purchase Order and receive 10 Items and a material document is created for 10 qty and a Inspection lot is created.
Since we want to print a label for each item we propose to create a line item on a GR thus creating 10 line items.
The problem is we get 10 Inspection Lots which we dont want.
Our requirement is to print 10 labels by having ...
1.One material Document with QTY 10 and one Inspection Lot with QTY 10.
2.Have 10 line items in GR to print lables but have one Inspection Lot.
We do not have batch management activated.
Thanks in advance for help.
Regards
SM

Hi SM,
It's very easy,
If I am not wrong you are asking about the inspection type 01, correct?
Then go to material master->Qm view>Inspection set up---> now for the detailed information for inspection type 01,, set the option "FOR EACH MATERIAL, BATCH AND STORAGE LOCATION" ( i know you are not batch managed but set this option) for the field "Control InsLot"
Have the fresh PO and then GR, system will do exactly as you asked for,

Multiple GR with Same inspection lot

Hi QM Experts,
In a standard system, when we take GR of same material for two different line items of PO or two different POu2019s, inspection lot created for each GR post with different batch number.
But what we want is one inspection lot for all of this GR and same batch number, because we make only one inspection for the goods received with same batch.
Can any expert suggest idea about this thing, thanks a lot.
Gkude

hi
better you post this question in QM forum
check following settings
SPRO-->Quality Management --> Quality Inspection ---> Inspection Lot Creation ---> Define Default Values for Inspection Type
here under control key check options of Control of Inspection Lot Creation (Lot Summary)
here try specifying value of for each material document.....
