QM inspection at various quality gates during production

Hi All,
We need clarification on how to plan inspection during production at various stages.
1. How to trigger and use inspection point planning at various inspection stages??
2. How will the characteristic be activated, processed and closed at various inspection stages??
3. How to define different characteristic at different inspection stages?
4. Will a single inspection lot be generated for entire production of a machine or separate lot will be generated at all the inspection stages??
If possible, please provide the process flow.
Thanks & Regards,
Ritesh

First questions
1. How to trigger and use inspection point planning at various inspection stages??
.. QCC0 > Quality Planning > Inspection Planning > General > Define Identifier for Inspection Points
2. How will the characteristic be activated, processed and closed at various inspection stages??
.. When user define new inspection point at result recording, system activates the characteristics automatically based on inspection plan.
3. How to define different characteristic at different inspection stages?
.. Not possible with inspection point function in SAP standard
.. You have to define all characteristics at inspection plan or use add characteristic function at result recording.
4. Will a single inspection lot be generated for entire production of a machine or separate lot will be generated at all the inspection stages??
.. It depends on production order process because inspection lot for production is generated based on production order.
Second questions
1. How can we define partial inspection points within production processes?
.. QCC0 > Quality Planning > Inspection Planning > General > Define Identifier for Inspection Points
2. Process to activate and process characteristics at every inspection points?
.. Yes
3. Is it possible to allot score against those characteristics during inspection?
.. Allocation is not possible, only add is possible.
4. How is partial check points processed and closed?
.. You can define it in operation header detail of inspection plan.
5. Is defect recording done at every inspection point or at the end?
.. Every inspection point
5. How to summarize the result and close the inspection lot finally??
.. System summarize the result automatically when you execute usage decision transaction.

Quality samples during production

Hi gurus,
I have 2 quires so please help.
1. I have a requirement that my customer (for costing reasons) wants to monitor the samples taken during production.
How can we monitor this....I tried to confirm scrap quantity @ the phase of quality, but confirming scrap is not allowed, beside, he needs to know the quality samples separately from the production scrap.
2. Another problem is the sample size in the inspection lot, lets say it was planned to take 3 samples but actually we took 4 samples, how can we update this number in the inspection lot.

The exit depends on what you want to actually do and when. You may find that you need the exit to just kick off a program that runs in batch a few minutes later to do what you want it to to avoid locks. You could use and of the following possibly.
QPAP0001      Enhancement - plan reading
QPAP0002      Enhancement for material/plan assignment, plan selection
QPAP0003      Conversion of sample unit of measure to material unit
QPGR0020      Customer Exit ExtensionParameter ALE Interface Code Group
QPL10001      QM: Inspection lot creation - editing work area on creation
QPL10003      Sample calculation for inspection lot without plan
QPL10004      User subscreen for displaying additional data in insp. lot
QPL10007      QM: Inspection lot creation - change QM order type
Once the sample size is calculated I don't think there is a way to update it once resutls recordings have started.

Inspection during production

Hi All,
Please clarify my doubt on Quality inspection during production.
We are using inspection type - "04 - Goods receipt inspection from production" for inspection during production.
Once after inspection if we reject a sub assembly for rework and move the part to block stock, we raise a notification to the concern department.
Now after production does a rework, how can we receive the sub assembly back to unrestricted used through Quality route and reflect the same in my notification.
If there is some other standard process of inspection during production and rework then please throw some light on it.
Thanks & Regds,
Ritesh

QM>Qualty Notif.>Notif. processing>Additional notif. Functions>Define Action Box
In the next pop-up screen select Define functions for the Action box
To research this I would look at notification Q1. Select Q1. Double Click on Activities.
Double click on 0035 - post goods movement.
you will see this action uses FM QM06_FM_TASK_GOODS_MOVEMENT_2. It is configured to run a second module upon saving called QM06_FM_TASK_GOODS_MOVEMENT_STEP2.
Click on the blue information button to read more about these FM's.
Copy these FM's and have an APAB'er modify them for your use. Add an action to your particular notification using these the new Z FM's.

Component / Semi Finshed rejection during Production

How can we configure the following Business Scenerios :
1. Material is Transfer to production floor with reference to BOM / Production Order from main store
2. During production - Some material is rejected because found faulty
3. Rejected Material is sent to Quality for inspection ( the same material is inspected by the Quality at the time of GR ,but may be found faulty in production floor)
4. Quality Department do the inspection and found some quantity may be used after some rework and remaining quantity is rejected and send to Main stores to return to Supplier
Pl let us know the steps how this can be configure into the system.
thanks
harish

Hi
1. Material is Transfer to production floor with reference to BOM / Production Order from main store
2. During production - Some material is rejected because found faulty
Solution:Here for the rejected material take back that material through reversal movement type.
3. Rejected Material is sent to Quality for inspection ( the same material is inspected by the Quality at the time of GR ,but may be found faulty in production floor)
Issue this material to quality through transfer posting (from unrestricted to quality inspection) using movement type 322.
4. Quality Department do the inspection and found some quantity may be used after some rework and remaining quantity is rejected and send to Main stores to return to Supplier
Once it's cleared from quality department here create inspection lot & thorugh usage decision clear that stock as unrestricted stock & again issue that material to production.

Steps to activate Quality tab during GR (MIGO)

Hi All,
I need to activate the quality tab during GR.
I have included the Quality management view in MM, and have maintained the inspection type as "01" Goods receipt inspection for order.
I am unable to see the quality tab during GR(MIGO)
Let me know what all settings do i have to maintain to get the quality tab in MIGO.
Thanks,
Regards
Raghavendra

I must confess I have never seen a Quality tab in MIGO, you did?
What is on this tab?
The quality status is on the WHERE tab.
Inspection method in QM view of material master is well known, it creates a inspection lot in background when doing the GR.
The lab does the quality check and then a usage decision for inspection lot.

Quality Operation in Production

Dear all,
Is it mandatory to put last operation as quality operation in production order.
when it is required to put quality operation in production order.
nidhi

Dear Nidhi,
It is Not mandatory.
What i think is, Your quality Person perform an Inspection after All PP Operations are finished. And somebody is suggesting you to add Quality inspection as an Operation after PP's operations.
It is not Mandatory,
Just activate 04 inspection type in QM material Master, so that you will get an Inspection lot after Confirmation of Order that means after confirming All PP operations.
If This is not the Case, please Explain your scenario in Detail.

Amol

Quality Gate Management workflow

Hi Gurus,
I have successfully implemented Quality Gate Management POC for a 4 System Landscape.I have few questions.
My questions are:
1. Can we have control on moving only block of change requests at any specific point of time to PRODUCTION
For Eg: Let us suppose there are 50 Change Requests which are pending to move to PRODUCTION. Can I move only 25 Change Requests at a specific time and the other 25 at some other time to PRODUCTION instead of moving all the 50 at a time (the option START IMPORT will move all the CHANGE REQUESTS into PRODUCTION at one time)? I am able to move only specific block of Change Requests from DEV to QUALITY. But not from QUALITY to PRODUCTION.
2. Is there any possibilty of using the CROSS SYSTEM OBJECT LOCKING in QGM without using CHARM?
Thanks,
Sandeep

Configure & integrate the quality management with production planning

hi,
i know general flow of production planning ,
i dono how to configure & integrate the quality management with production planning . can anyone explain step by step to configure.
with regards,
Elanchi

Hi,
You must define an inspection type 03 and activate it for materail. When you create production order you will have the inspection lot created. you define type of inspection plan in inspection lot type. You will insert an operation in routing og the material. This operation must contain inspection characteristics. use the operation key QM04 with a quality work center.
Inspection process time will be assigned to your production order.
I think you can manage t customise the process from this global definition of the QM process in Production.

Transformation pointing to Quality Client in Production System Repeatedly

Hi,
I need to understand one issue which is explained in detail below step by step.
1. I created one Customized Data Source(Full Load) and replicated in BW.
2. Also created Info Objects, DSO, Info Package, Transformation, DTP.
3. While transporting this modelling to Production(first time), i unknowingly/mistakenly missed capturing the datasource in Transport Request.Sequence of transport was -
Data Source
Info Area
Info Object Catalogue
Info Object
DSO
Cube & MP
Data Source
Transformation
Info Package & DTP
Now, the moment TR for transformation was transported it threw an error - "Data Source does not exist in Quality client". Then I transported the Data Source TR and after that re-transported the transformation TR production and this error was removed.
But, there were 2 transformations in production - 1) Pointing to Production, 2) Pointing to quality.
4. I request the basis team to delete the second transformation(pointing to quality) from BW production system.
5. After that we captured Data Source and transformation in same TR and transport was successful.
6. Now, after few days we transported a change to production for same object and the system again threw the same error mentioned in point no.3 above and created two transformations again.
How to resolve this issue permanently and I also want to know the reason of this type of system behavior.

Mohammed,
I did that also - please read my step no.4.
We are able to delete the transformation which was referring to quality client and then captured D.S & transformation in a single TR and transport as successful.
Now, after few days I did one change in the same transformation and transported to production.
System Behavior:
Error - " No source exist (i.e.,system referred to quality in production)".
Also again transformation was visible in production which was referring to quality client(which we already deleted with the help of BASIS).
Now since again the transformation needs to be deleted from production, our basis team is telling us to they cannot delete objects every time in production.Thus,
1. Is there any option to solve this issue permanently?
2. Also is it necessary to transport data source along with the transformation which is directly linked to data source?
Please Note: We have Dev+Quality as one client and Production.

Hi All,
We are also trying to upgrade OIM 9.1.0.2 which is present in our environment to OIM11g. Request your help.
Now how do we achieve the upgrade? Should my source of OIM9i software and target of OIM 11g software be installed on the same server?
I did install OIM11g and OIM9i on the same server and tried to do schema upgrade based on the link:
Upgrading Oracle Identity Manager Environment
But during examine phase I get error the below error
UPGAST 00091- ERROR DURING EXAMINE OF COMPONENETS
UPGAST 01004- UPGRADE IS UNABLE TO DYNAMICALLY LOAD COMPONENET SPECIFIC SOFTWARE MODULES.
When i check in the log in internet it says :
Cause: Repository upgrade framework was unable to dynamically load the Java classes of its component-specific software modules. mrua.xml file might have been corrupted.
Action: This is an internal error. Verify that the Java classpath has been correctly set, the mrua.xml file is correct, and that the .jar files for all component-specific software modules are present in the jlib directory. Contact Oracle Support Services for assistance
What is the javaclasspath to be set?how to check if mrua.xml and jar files are fine
Pls help.Any help is much appreciated.

Change Work Center during production order confirmation

Dear All,
I must to modeling this situation:
I created an production order. In routing I used an work center A.
After I confirmed a half of quantity, the work center A was damaged and I must to change it, with the work center B.
The system allow this change, but when I checked the costing, the situation isn't real. The system counted the costs just for the work center A, and no for work center B.
My question is: it's possible to change the work center, during production order confirmation and the costs updated with new cost?
Thank you for your answer!
Regards,
Marian

once a Order is released, the Process order detaisl for that order is frozen.
however if you want to do it, change the order status to CRTD after reversing the Movements done.
Do READ MAster data , this will copy the new Work center , redo the previously done Moevements.
if the change is long term.
or
Just manually add the new work center and do the processing. if the change is temporary.

Restrict Authorization at Material level during production confirmation

Hi SAP Gurus,
I would like to ask if its possible to restrict authorization at Material Level during production confirmation.
Our scenario is we have SFG and FG which are handled by different group of people but it has the same Order Type. Now we want to restrict authorization such as one department can only confirm SFG and the other department can confirm FG only.
Is it possible to set authorization at material type or production scheduler level. IF not possible, is there other way except creation of new Order Type?
Thanks,
Raymond

Hi Raymond,
DO you mean I should create a customized table for this?
Yes
Are there no standard way?
As per my knowledge, you can control through production order type, so you need to create seprate order type for this
Thanks,
Sankaran

Can we obtain Inspection lots against a Process Order / Production Order

Can we obtain Inspection lots against a Process Order / Production Order on time basis i.e hourly or day wise against the same order

HI
i think there is no this option.Like Plant maintenance ther is no scheduling tool.
or you have to go with stability studies...
