Procedural steps of automaic Inspection lot creation.

Dear Gurus,
I would like to create Inspection lot automatically for various inspection types. Where I will customize the number ranges w.r.t specific inspection type (e.g. 01, 04, 05 etc.). Example: -
1. For Inspection Type 01 (GR inspection for incoming materials)- Lot Number is 1000000000.
2. For Inspection type 04 (GR inspection of finished goods)- Inspection lot number 4000000000.
3. For Inspection type 05 (Inspection for other good receipt)- Inspection lot number 5000000000.
Pl. needful.
Thanks in advance for all,
Prasun

If you are using SAP std insp type, then you need to build the following
- Material master with QM view - MM01
-Assign the ispection type 01, 04. 05 in QM view
-Create inspction charectristics - QS21
-Create inspction plan - QP01
The usage of inspection plan should be 5.
Check in the SPRO, is the usage for each insp type is 5 or other. If it is not same then you create insp plan as per teh usage assigned.
SPRO>QM>Quality inspection>Insp lot creation>Maintain insp type.
Once you do it, insp lot will be created duting Production GR/PO GR and other GR.
please come back if required.

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!!

Auto Inspection Lot Creation.

Dear Expert,
I have created new inspection type as Z01 by copying the 01 and I have maintain Inspection Lot Origins and Assign Inspection Types under 01. After that I have assigned my new inspection type Z01 to material master and activated it with material post to quality. Up to this it is working fine but after GRN system is not creating the lot. Even thou material is posting to the quality stock but no lot is in QA32.
But if I Create the lot wih QA01 it working fine and I'm able to do the UD also. But for no automatic lot generated for purchase order.
Please provide the details how to resolve this issue?
Thanks and Regards,
Manish

Dear Manish
These are the procudural steps when going to create a new inspection type
1) Maintain task list usage - SPRO> QM> Quality Planning > Inspection Planning> General> Define task list usages
2) Maintain inspection type - SPRO> QM> Quality Inspection > Inspection Lot Processing > Inspection Lot Creation > Maintain inspection types (for eg Z89) - Also maintain the task list usage here
3) Maintain Quality inspection lot origins and assign inspection types - SPRO> QM > Inspection Lot Processing > Inspection Lot Creation > Maintain inspection lot origins and assign inspection types
4) Define default values for inspection type - SPRO > QM> Quality Inspection > Inspection Lot Processing > Inspection Lot Creation > Define default values for inspection type
5) please check for any user exits in MIGO which have been used which is creating any issues.

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.

Inspection lot creation while partial comformation in 03 inspection type

Hi
I want inspection to be created while partial confirmation of operation in CO11N in 03 inspection.
It is happening with release of production order.
PLz let me know -if anybody can help.
Regards
Pooja

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 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

Inspection Lot creation for the 103 movement type

<<Don't ask for or offer points>>
Dear Experts,
we have the requirement of Creating the Inspection lot for the 103 movement type. we have done all the necessary settings for 103 movement type (in OMJJ and under the node Quality Management --> Quality Inspection -->Inspection Lot Creation -->Inspection for Goods Movements) but still I am unable to achieve the results. Same is happening for 105 movements.
Kindly let us know what settings need to be done in order to achieve the same.
Full points will be awarded for the reply
Regards.

Hi,
If you have activated two inspection types (eg 01, 0101) of same inspection lot origin (01), in material master you should have a preferred indicator set for the inspection type for which you want to be selected when you perform goods receipt.
This check box is available in the inspection type set up in the Material master.
Also check whether the post to inspection stock indicator is set for the material (in the inspection type), then only material will be posted to inspection stock.
Please confirm, what happens to the stock after making MIGO. check in MMBE and confirm
Go through the link and maintain the necessary settings. I think default settings for 01 type should work.

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 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

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.

Honyal

Any valuable input are welcome

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

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
