Problem in Early Inspection Lot

Hi Gurus,
We are using 04 inspection- early lot inspection.
Production order quantity is 100Ton. Confirmation done for 75Ton. UD given for the lot with 75Ton. But at the time of confirming remaining 25 Ton, a new lot has been generated. There is no requirement of new lot. How to avoid the second lot?
Thanks in Advance

Hi
new inspection lots are created when:
The batch is changed for materials subject to batch management,
Goods receipts are posted to different plants or storage locations,
A previously created inspection lot has already been completely credited from the stock,
Different special stocks are being posted,
A previously created inspection lot has been canceled

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!!

Early inspection lot

Dear Experts,
I have created a scenario for Early lot creation for GR against process order. Means when I release the process order, immediately GR lot is generated. Now when I actually do the GR, the system should consider the same lot. But in my case the system is generating one more inspection lot. Can you please help me, why this is happening.
Thanks & regards
Milind

Hi Milind,
Check whether you have posted a different batch to warehouse or you have made a GR posting to a different storage location. In such cases a new lot will be generated for 04 inspection although an early inspection lot already exists.
Please check and revert.

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]

Duplicate Inspection lots being created

Hi all,
I have a problem with duplicate Inspection Lots being created in PRD system after a MB_CREATE_GOODS_MOVEMENT and a MB_POST_GOODS_MOVEMENT are called (from handheld scanner transaction).
This is only happening very rarely and we can not replicate the issue in QA system.
Anybody have any ideas on why duplicates might be created?
My own idea is:
There is a COMMIT WORK AND WAIT line in the code after the MB_POST_GOODS_MOVEMENT call.
When I debug in QA, I can see that the QALS table (Inspection lots) is only updated after the COMMIT WORK line.
Could it be a timing issue in PRD? - if I add another COMMIT WORK after the MB_CREATE_GOODS_MOVEMENT,
would this have any effect?
As the issue is not happening in DV or QA, I can't test.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Just to update this, incase helpful to anyone else, what actually fixed this issue
was that I set two flags on the MB_CREATE_GOODS_ISSUE function module.
This is necessary if you are calling the FM multiple times.
What we were doing is calling it initially, looking at the returned table, kicking out any entries
that caused an error, and then calling the FM again with the updated (corrected) list.
The flag XALLR needs to be set to avoid duplicate inspection lots being created, and the
XALLP flag needs to be set to keep the sequence of Material Documents correct (with no
gaps in the sequence).
    CALL FUNCTION 'MB_CREATE_GOODS_MOVEMENT'
      EXPORTING
        imkpf = ls_imkpf
        XALLR = 'X' " EDIT 08.06.2011
        XALLP = 'X' " EDIT 08.06.2011
      IMPORTING
        emkpf = ls_emkpf
      TABLES
        emseg = lt_emseg
        imseg = lt_imseg.

Production Order Qty- Inspection Lot Qty

Hi Guru's,
When an production order is relreased an inspection lot is creaetd with the production Qty. But later when we change Qty for the released Prodction Order the inspection lot Qty is not changes it remains the same as previous Order Qty.
Say for Ex: intial Prod order qty (MTS Scenario) is 200 (production order released). Inspection lot Qty is 200.
Later User changes the Qty to 100. Our problem is the inspection lot qty does not change ramins the same as 200. Can inspection lot qty be changed automically on change of production order qty .
What settings need to change? pls advise
Regards,
Sankaran
Edited by: Sankaran M on Oct 10, 2008 9:41 AM

Hi Sankaran,
It is possible if the user not doing any result against existing lot.
Follow the Below step.
Your Existing order Qty = 200 Nos Inspection lot no 300000200.
Now you want change the Qty as 200 to 100.
Before change the qty, first you have to delete the Inspection lot Go to CO02 -> Got to menu Functions -> Inspection lot -> Delete.
Now change the Qty 100.
And Again go to Functions -> Inspection Lot -> Create. and save the order.
Now system will delete the Old indpection lot and create the new inspection lot.
Qty : 100 Inspection Lot 300000201.
Revert further clarification.

What is the Earlier Inspection process

Dear Folks,
What is the earlier inspection process ?
And my actual requirement is , i want to do the final inspection process for a material with refernece to a production order and i want to do another operation with reference to the same production order after completion of this final inspection operation.
I heared that through earlier inspection process it is possible. But i do not what is that.
Can anybody explain the earlier inspection process.
thanx in advance .
Regards
Srinivas

Hi,
Early Inspection Lot:
Excerpts from Std SAP documentation:
An inspection lot with inspection lot origin 04 is created when a
production or process order is released. You can use this inspection
lot to inspect goods receipts of the finished quantities and then
manage them after goods receipt posting in the inspection lot stock.
Recommendation: Avoid making a usage decision for this type of early
inspection lot before any goods receipts have been posted. The usage
decision will then have a stock quantity of 0, but will not have the
status completely credited. This means that any following goods
receipts will be posted into the stock for this inspection lot. You
must then credit this lot from the stock quantity yourself, even if
you do not intend to perform further checks.
Hope this helps

Rescheduling of QM Inspection Lot

Dear SAP Guro,
We are dealing a scenario now, wherein for some point in time the QM inspection lot is rescheduled automatically. We noticed this when the production order was rescheduled during the weekend. Example: PO#12345 is rescheduled on a weekend, while the inspection lot for the needed material or component has a schedule falling on weekdays, this QM ILot is supposed to be rescheduled on a weekend also so that the production will be completed but this is not happening. The QM ILot is only rescheduled when the production order which will be using the material fall on a weekend. Is this a normal SAP behavior? Or, the factory calendar assigned to the plant and work center has something to do with this? As we have noticed, the plant is using N1 Factory calendar wherein weekends are non-working days, this N1 calendar is also assigned to the QM work center. The other calendar N2, wherein all days of the month are working days, is assigned to the production order work center. we tried to change the Factory calendar of the QM Work Center but still, the inspection lot is not rescheduled on a weekend.
Kindly let us know your thoughts on this. Any suggestions will be greatly apprecaited.
Kind regards,
JMT

"Closing" Unused, but Released Orders with Inspection Lots

We have Process Orders which have been released, but been unused. When We come to Financially Close them we have problems as the Inspection lot is still on without a UD
Is there a way we can mass process UD of Inspection Lots (or deletion of IL) with Nothing Produced on the Order?
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek Kumar

hi,
if you the process orders, make a list of those. now in qa16, you can do the mass UD. in that transaction, you can find out an option called " dynamic selection". if you expand that option, you will have an option called " production"; under that order. So you can put all those process orders and with the lot oringin 03, you will ge tp know the concerned inspection lots. then you do mass ud. this was your requirement.

The inspection lot must have the status 'Stock Postings Completed' or must have been cancelled. If these two preconditions are not satisfied, the inspection lot must have the status 'Usage Decision Made' and the status PAKO (All Inspections Completed) must be active.
As per my understanding the status "ICCO" and "PAKO" are same- All inspections completed.
the inspection lot is having staus both UD and PAKO.
Why the order is not able to close.......?

Problem Inspection lot 04 (early creation)

Hi Experts,
following problem:
We use early creation for inspection lot 04.
If Production Order was released the insp. lot was created. There is no stock quantity available in the lot, which is correct).
If i do the result recording and UD (Accepted), the insp. lot is finish.
After this step I do the confirmation of the Prod.Order and the goods receive (MB31) from production to stock.
I thought the material should go directly to main stock because of UD (Accepted).
But SAP moved the material to 917 (Q-Stock) and refresh the insp. lot with stock quantity.
I have to change the insp. lot to move the material from Q-Stock(917) to main stock.
This is not what we want.
If we do the accepance-UD before prod.order was doing the goods receive, the material should not go to quality. Should go
directly to main stock.
Is there a possibility or special setup which supports this process ?
Can someone give me a hint what I have to do ?
Thanks !
Tom

Hi,
the reason why we will proceed in this way is the following:
Our customer wants to do a inspection after production is done and before goods receive.
We (QM) have to inform the customer min a week before finish the production. this is the reason for the early lot creation.
Sometimes the customer told us, it's not necessary to do the inspection. This is the reason why we will do the UD before the
goods receive from the production order is done. We will avoid that the material will be moved to QM because tehre a re no activities necessary.
So, is there a possibility move the material(if UD was done before goods receive) dirctly into main stock or is there a exit which can ´do the "posting" in the QM-lot automatically?
thanks for your help !

I have a typical problem that material is there in quality inspection lot and serial numbers are aslo assigned during 101 mvt. but when I am posting it to unrestricted stock system is not determine serial number and giving an error
*Stock data of serial number XXXXXX not suitable for movement
Message no. IO231*
All configuration setting are also OK as this problem comes for the first time and previously we were able to clear inspection lots of that material easily with serial number.
Any Idea to rectify that problem?
Thanks

Hello,
Check with your serializing Procedure check the assignment in Work scheduling View for this material also check in Quality view
