Printing of quality notification

Hi Experts,
I need one help concerning printer definition.
Ive one issue regarding desired number of print outs for quality notification.
Our Basis team has defined certain printers in SAP, now issue is that user is trying to print 3 numbers of copies (for quality notification) but printer is taking number of copy as 1 only.
Can somewhere we have a check on number of copies while defining printer.
So my question is do Basis team restricts number of copies while defining printer, that means printer should print maintained number of copies only.
Please help.
Thank you,
Mayur

Hello Craig,
That's correct, I've set number of copies as 3 in the path mentioned by you.
While printing quality notification, when I select 'LOCL' printer then it goes to spool (T-Code: SP01) and after that I'm getting desired number of copies. No issues in this case.
But when I select printer (say IN01_XX) which is defined for that particular user in that case I'm getting only 1 copy though I've configured number of copies as 3. So every time I've to give new printing.
Please help
Thank you,
Mayur

Automatic/Immediate print of quality notification after saving

Hi,
Checked numerous posts avialable on this requirement but after following the suggestion still facing the issue.
Requirement is right after saving a quality notification print should be triggered.
Following settings are in place:
In Quality Notification print control
-> Define Shop papers, Forms, Print programs (1. defined shop papers and assigned print programs 2. Assigned shop papers to notification types)
-> Define Printer ( here under user-dependent print control with wild card * entries chose Print Now option)
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ragahva

Hi Raghava,
If you have configured the notification print control setup correctly, then the next step to get a notification printed is to select the right shop floor paper and print it. To do that please select - QM02/QM03 => Notification => Notification
Now select the appropriate Printer and the document you wish to get printed and print it manually.
Please note that any notification type can have more than more than one Shop Floor Paper selected to be printed. If you wish to automate it based on User details, then I think you may need to work with the below exit -
QQMA0014 QM/PM/SM: Checks before saving a notification
Please note that you have to put a logic there to read the user's credentials and print the notification while saving. You can take clues form the below thread too -

Automatic print of Quality Notification

Dear All,
I need to know if it is possible print automatically the Quality Notifications when people create a new one.
For production order you can set a customizing flag that allow to print the order. There is in SAP R/3 an equal system for the QN?
Thanks and best regards
Matteo

Hi Matteo
Please go to T : code OIDA : define shop papers for notification
go to : t : code OIDB : assign shop papers to your notification type
Then when you create notification print can be taken
Hope ths helps

Shop paper printing issue in Quality notifications

Hello All,
I have a requirement where the user wants to print/fax quality notifications to a certain printer (printer 2) other than his regular printer defined in user defauls in SU01.
In the IMG settings for quality notifications, I found the customizations for Print control. In the customization 'User-Dependent Print Control' (under 'Define Printer'), I created a new record with the user name, the shop paper corresponding to a quality notification and specified the printer name (printer 2).
However, I notice that when I print this shop paper from within the quality notification, it prints it on the user default printer (defined in SU01) and not in the new printer (printer 2) defined in the above mentioned customization.
Please let me know how I can configure the notifications to be printer on this new printer.
Thanks,
Rugmani

Check the IMG in the following transaction OID1 & OID2 and OID3 for default printer
Thanks

Print Quality Notification

Hello Experts,
My client needs to take 3 prints of quality notification everytime as 1 copy goes to Vendor, 1 copy to Accounts & 1 with IQC.
But even if we select no. of copies more than 1, It prints only 1 copy & every time we need to create new spool request which is unnecessary NVA. I tried one customization in QM.
I want quality notification printing plant wise.
In Customizing - Quality Notifications - Notification Processing - User Specific Print Control - No of copies defined are 1 only.
I tried to keep it Blank or * but it is not accepting.
There is one push button for PM so with that can we assign plant and shop papers.
Thanks & regards

Hello Krishna,
I created Print Diversion and assigned to different plants.
But when I go to quality notificaton and try to take print out, it is showing no. of copies field as 1.
Though I've maintained no. of copies as 3 in print diversion for each plant.
I just want to confirm whether this is due to output program assigned to shop paper.
Thanks & regards

Not able to print quality notification plant-wise.

Hi,
We have notification type 'ZP' and we've assigned shop paper - ZC01 - to notification type 'ZP'.
When we create quality notification with notification type 'ZP' and try to take prints for different plants but still only 1 print out is coming for each plant.
We try to assign shop paper and desired number of copies to each plant in the customizing SPRO->Quality Management -> Quality Notification ->Notification Processing -> Define printer but still it is taking number of copies as 1 only.
Please help..
Warm Regards

Hi Arun,
Thanks for your reply.
That's correct, we can specify no. of copies.
But I want to make default no. of copies for each plant.
So can we do this in customizing.

If Quality notification as follow up action fails

Dear all
I have a situation where Quality notification is configured as a Follow up action once the UD is made.
So I am getting Create notification screen once UD is filled and SAVE button is clicked.
In Case some wrong data is entered in the Create notification screen and I am coming out of Notification without saving the notification.
The status of the inspection lot is getting flipped to UDed as expected.
But is there any setting where i can define if the Followup action is not successful( Notification not created), then wont make the UD of Inspection lot also. (OR some user status will get updated saying Notif not created etc..)

Hi Navdeep,
Thanks to Anand for his correct feedback.
Please note that as per standard SAP, unless and otherwise there is a defect created, there can't be a 1:1 link with inspection lot with the notification, though in the notification header table there is a placeholder available (QMEL-PRUEFLOS) to capture this inspection lot field. You are trying to use a follow-up action wherein, after UD you are always creating a notification based on business case. I believe, the FM you are using in follow-up action, is not presently populating QMEL-PRUEFLOS. So there can't be a link to find out when there is failures in notification creation, but UD happening successfully.
You can try out the below approach -
Approach - 1
During the UD save process, there should be additional checks happening. Ask the follow-up FM to update QMEL-PRUEFLOS or TEXT field with inspection lot for all successful notification creation and UD update, and send a confirmation email to approver or task processing partners, or the UD processing user ID (This email part can be skipped in case if this is not required). In case of any failures in notification creation at save, it should truncate the UD save process too and send a message to UD processing user for this failure.
Approach - 2
You can create a batch job running at the background to validate for which inspection lot there is no notification created, even though UD is done. Send a mail to the UD processing user to create a notification, as that is not created. User can then create it manually it by updating TEXT field in notification in foreground.

Existing Quality Notification takes long time to open for certain vendors

Hello Gurus,
I have users complaining about the wait time( 2 t0 5 mintues) when opening of an Quality notification in QM03 for certain vendors. For soem vendors its fast and they always fast but for some it takes really long time and it always long.
I tried the sql trace but nothin out of ordinary compare to the ones both kind slow and fast.
Any help or idea would be really appreciated1

Dear Khan
I think you need refer this to SAP itself. This is more of some program error than your execution. Please check this note if it can help you

Automatic Creation of Quality Notification

Dear All,
In standard SAP whenever defects recording is done for an inspection lot and saved,automatically a quality notification is also created.In my business scenario they will record defects for almost all the inspection lots hence resulting in a huge number of unwanted quality notification which then later wont be processed at all.
Hence i wanted to know whether anything can be done to stop auto creation of notification.Is there anything which i could in IMG or any setting to avoid that???
Expecting your valuable comments
Regards
JR

Hi
i wanted to know whether anything can be done to stop auto creation of notification.Is there anything which i could in IMG or any setting to avoid that???
1.This is very much possible through SPRO setting.
QCC0>Quality planning>catalogs>select defect calss->
like for Minor defect-->remove Raido button & make it No active function
Just a suggetion ...what you can do for all Critical & major type of defect keep "Active Notification"
for Minor type of defects keep "No Act fuction"
this will reduce unnecessory notification.
2.If you permanently want to remove all notification after defect recording then
Go to Inspection type setting in SPRO & remove notification against inspection type.
QCC0>Qul insp>Insp lot creation-->maintain inspec type.

Polish letters not displayed correctly in quality notification long text

Hello,
in quality notification: when trying to write text in Polish language, some non-english letters are displayed incorectly.
I did not find possibility to change the text language as in e.g. sales order texts. Using PL as login language solves the situation if MS Word view of long text is opened but not if text displayed in notification in "SAP view". Anyway different login language is not desired solution.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
Br Jan

Is there any possibility of upgrading?
