Quality Management for Fuel Procurement.

Dear Experts,
For Fuel procurement in a Power plant. Quality Management has to be implemented with MM module. Can any one help me with the process involved in meeting this requirement. A fuel sample will be taken at Supplier's location. Tested at an independent laboratory. The sample will be again tested at clients location before receiving the fuel. Quality parameters need to be keyed in. If quality parameters are not met, the fuel receipt wont be made. Only after the sample has been approved. The entire quantity of Fuel can be received. How can this be implemented in SAP?
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
This can be done by following way -
1) Activate Inspection Type 01 to the material master in the required plant.
2) Also activate QM in Procurement with control key referencing to 'Delivery Release'.
3) Maintain Quality Info Record for the material / vendor / plant combination & maintain Source Inspection as 01.
4) Maintain inspection plan for the material for usage of Goods Receipt.
5) Create Source Inspection lot for the material.
6) Record Results for the inspcetion lot after the sample inspection & post usage decision.
7) System will allow to post GRN only after the result recording for source inspection lot has been done & usage decision as 'Accepted' has been done.
8) After posting GRN, system will create another inspection lot.
9) You can post the result recording & usage desicion for the GRN inspection lot.
Hope above clears the query.
Regards,
Prashant

TQM Total Quality Management for Non Planned Defective Material Containment

HI SAP Experts,
My overall goal with this posting is to try and get a better understanding of some of the SAP best practices that have been implemented at other companies for defect containment in a global company (we have operations in China, Japan, USA, EU, Korea etc).
We are in the project charter phase to re-define how we identify and contain our non-planned defective materials / processes.   Historically we have used external custom applications written in ASP Visual Basic Intradev 6.0 to manage many of our processes including Defective Material Containment.   We have found that these processes are not scalable and not sustainable and looking to SAP applications to help provide solutions.
Our current process flow is basically as follows --> Request Notification (with approval) --> Purge (Identify stock locations globally material exists in and pull inventory into a consolidated location where it can be controlled - Inspection, Materials, Customer Service etc) and Finally disposition - these processes are doing in SAP with QM notifications for materials.   You can see my disparate issues - no integrated reporting, responsiblity nor follow through.
The process is quite cumbersome (multiple data entry points, duplication of data) and not scalable. The only integration we have with this custom ASP application is that is used to provide the current inventory levels (in stock) at the time of the Containment was approved and the use of material status to lock parts so movements can not be performed during this initiative.
My basic thoughts on the process in SAP is as follows:
1. QM-QN Quality Notification (identify compliant, related tasks and approval to proceed with containment).
2. QM-MM Identify and Contain Parts globally using MM (Task - separate notification completion driven as follow-on activity and notification record linked to primary notification)-->
3. QM - inspection lot for Quality to identify inspection criteria for non planned defect and generate defective Notifications for each defect found to ensure data integrity and historical tracking of problems.
4. QM - Completion and disposition of Inspection lot. Related notifications may still be open or not depending the owners disposition.
5. QM That same owner also has the decision to tighten or loosen inspection requirements for that material and vendor.
Basically I'm curious if I am even close in this process of going the right direction or not.   And is why I hope others might be able to share the process that they have implemented that identify (non planned) defects and containment processing.
I'm interested in any ideas you have on the basic high level concepts to ensure I am choosing the right modules and / or processes.
R/3 or SAP ECC6.0 is a little cumbersome to manage all these processes so we are also looking to see if any SAP customers have used Portal for such a processes.
If you do have a process map / flow with some screen shot's to share that would also be a great asset to us as we begin planning this project.
Thanks and Regards,

Ed,
I think you fitted your entire process in this single thread. I am not clear whether your containment stock across all these countries are releated to vendor complaints or is its also a mix of your in process rejections too.
Suggestion 1,
If this containment across plants are related to vendor related defetcs, use Q2 notification for vendor rejection. through this notification defects can be captured, task can be assigned to vendor for completion. Status of thsi task can be monitored and captured through notification both at a line item level and header level. 8D, CAPA and all will be incorporated in this notification. This forms a closed loop for vendor defect analysis.
Suggestion 2,
Consolidating containment stock from different plants across countries can be done through action box facility- Transfer stock posting.
Transfer post from unrestricted to block or Transfer post from Unrestricted to Quality or Transfer post from Blocked to Quality.
Its better you can create a seperate storage location and go ahead with this consolidation.
Now you can decide, this consolidation happen across plant level or towards one corporate plant level, anyway plant is mandatory when you deal with inventory.
I hope this thread will throw some light towards your requirements.
Concluding QM-QN is having a best practise closed loop, if it is mapped well as I have worked with this functionality very well. Workflow is another activity which you can think of, if you need a control on this plantwise.
Vendor wise inspection controls can be activated through Dynamic Modification Rule T Code: QDR1and Quality Level controls T Code: QDL1.
Thanks,
Vineeth

CAD send metadata to Quality Management with chinese string

Hi everybody,
       I'm facing a problem is when I want send a metadata to the Quality Management for a recording, it's failed when the metadata include Chinese string, the error reason is "Tried to read incomplete UTF8 decoded String". And I believe the database of QM is support for Chinese string because I can change the metadata field in the database to Chinese string manually.
       Does anybody know how to send Chinese string to the Quality Management?
       The attachment is screenshot for the error and the result when I change database field into Chinese manually.
       It's really need somebody can help me to resolve this problem.
Best Regards.

Hi James
I've done an RSPAN deployment with UCCX recording which I presume will have similar gotchas...
The only issue I had was that I ham fisted an RSPAN config in that SPANned the VVLAN on all the edge switches. My mistake was that I didn't exclude the uplink ports, and these switches were stacked, so there was a lot of packet duplication initially (sounds like 90s dance music time stretching).
If you ensure you SPAN ingress only on all the endpoints (i.e. phones, and gateways) and then exclude any ports where traffic might be seen a second time (e.g. switch uplinks), and then filter for the voice VLAN you should be OK.
This deployment was a routed LAN with different subnets on each edge stack but this worked OK with everything running through a single RSPAN session back to the server.
I've not had the good fortune to have to do this more than a couple of times, and I've not done it for AQM - but assuming that SPAN/RSPAN are supported along with the video recording part running on the endpoints I don't see it being too different as they seem to be written by the same people.
Can't help re: VMware view either I'm afraid...

Cisco Unified WFO - Call Recording and Quality Management with Extension Mobility agents

Hi All,
We're considering Cisco Unified WFO - Call Recording and Quality Management for a customer running UCCX 8.0, agents on multiple WAN sites, all agents using extension mobility.
The documentation I've been able to find describes three different recording methods:
Using Desktop Recording service (Endpoint) to record from an agent’s desktop.
Server Recording - Uses SPAN (not so good for remote sites)
Network Recording - Uses CUCM recording service / SIP trunk / phone's built in bridge.
Network recording or Desktop recording should be suitable for the customer but it seems that Extension mobility is not supported. Extension Mobility is not mentioned in the 8.5 installation guide, it is mentioned as ‘not supported’ in the 8.0 guide as follows:
'Server Recording and Network Recording have the following limitations:
• Extension mobility is not supported.'
Neither version's documentation specifically mention extension mobility in relation to the desktop recording method, though I realise this is a similar approach to the 'server recording' method.
So the question I have is: Is extension mobility supported in any way on version 8.0, or version 8.5 for recording? And if so which recording method(s) are supported?
Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi,
I had more luck asking questions over at the Calabrio forum - they make the software and Cisco re-brand a version of it - there is some good info on their portal (http://portal.calabrio.com), you have to register but it's fairly painless. The answer I got was:
"QM Desktop recording has always supported extention mobility as it determines the recorded user by the desktop user's login. Extention mobility was not supported for Server and Network recording until the Calabrio QM 8.6.2 release in April 2011 and will be added to Cisco QM starting with QM 8.5.2 in June 2011"

Jonathan

Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement

if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
if we want want to maintaine
pls tell me how it is
pls expalin
faisal

if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
I am not clear about your question. But I guess you want to know about control key function. You activate "proc. asctive" box in QM view of material master, that is always at plant level. When you activate this, system automatically asks for a control key & cert type, thats mandatory field.

Create Quality Management view for a Material in background mode

I want to know if there is a way to create a Quality Management View (Quality Management tab) on Material Master (material already extended to plant ) in background mode.
The requirement is to add inspection setup data for a material extended to a particular plant in background. I tried using 'BAPI_MATINSPCTRL_SAVEREPLICA' to add the data and it works perfect as required. Now the problem is this BAPI is creating the inspection setup data only for the material which has QM tab in MM02 for e.g. I manually created the inspection setup for a Material from MM01 and then deleted it , now the BAPI works fine for this material because when I created an inspection setup from MM01 it created the QM tab and after i deleted the entry the tab was still there with no entry in inspection setup.
I want to create inspection setup for a material which does not have QM tab.
I have to create everything is background mode. BDC is one option which I am list interested in.
Thank you for helping in advance.

Thank you for looking into my issue. I have to do the inspection setup in background without using any front end transaction.

Is Quality management module required to be used for vendor evaluation?

Hi,
There is vendor evaluation functionality in MM. Is use of quality management module is mandatory for this? I wish to track the performance of vendor regarding quality (How much he has supplied, out of which how many are accepted and how many are rejected). Can I get this report without using QM?
Thanks in advance,
Satish

you can enter Quality results manually in vendor evealuation, so QM is not necessary for this, however with QM you can get the scores semi-automatic and automatically.

BDC for MM02 - Quality management

Hi Friends,
I need to create BDC program for MM02 with Quality Management View.
My problem is with the sequence of the QM view in MM02 for different material types as per with recording.
Kindly suggest me to resolve the issue.
Thanks & Regards,
S.Suresh
Edited by: The Rock on Nov 7, 2011 1:43 PM

Hi S.Suresh,
I would simply read table QMAT to check if material/plant has Inspection Type '01'.
Then, in case Inspection Type needs to be created, just call the BAPI_MATINSPCTRL_SAVEREPLICA FM with structure INSPECTIONCTRL properly filled-in.
If successful, then remember to call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.
Hope this could help.
Bye,
Flavio

A Quality report as a tool for the Quality management of Web services

Hi everybody,
I would like to explain and discuss my current research project with you:
The differentiation from competitors is crucial for the economic success of a product. This differentiation can be achieved in addition to price and the date of the market entry through the product quality. To differentiate the quality of products, it is necessary to distinguish between several relevant product characteristics, to determine their values, to evaluate these values and to relate this evaluation to the evaluation of other products. Techniques for the determination of the quality of a product are used in many areas of the quality management, e.g. in the quality assessment.
Web Services are software systems supporting a machine-machine interaction over a network. Web services are often used as modules in different software architectures, especially in Service-oriented architectures (SOA).
In the course of quality management of a Web service applied in software consequently needs appropriate procedures and quality models as means to determine the quality. As there is a lack, research is needed in this field.
In order to eliminate the described deficit, a procedure is to develop that helps to determine the quality of a Web service. A report is conceivable which integrates all relevant views, all influences on the quality and all phases of the life cycle of a Web services.
During the research a lot of similarities between Life cycle assessments of environmental management and the quality management have been identified. These similarities include e.g. principles, procedures and the terminology. Since the Life cycle assessments relate on the product life cycle, on the stakeholders and on all relevant product characteristics, an adaption of the method on the quality management of software seems to be promising.

I would like to answer the following two research questions:
- Is it possible to adapt the principles and procedures of Life cycle assessment and Sustainability reporting to the quality management of Web services?
- Is a quality report based on these findings an appropriate tool for quality management?
Do you have any experiences with the quality management of Web services? Which procedures do you use to determine the quality of Web services? How are your experiences with that procedures? Where are their weaknesses?

Can Quality Manager Record Calls for a Non Agent Extension

Hi ,
We have a customer running UCCX 8.x with quality manager. The customer is asking if they can record a regular extension (non-agent) with qulity manager. This extensions have no connection to the contact center , it is just a regular extension registered in CUCM,
Appreciate your quick response.
Thank You
AJ

Yes you most certainly can record non-acd lines, you can record users that are non-acd users as well. We refer to these as Knowledge Workers:
QM is not dependant on the ACD lines themselves in order to record, we record based on Device, and every line on that device can be recorded if configured to do so.
If you are simply using Server or Network recording, you just need to configure the device, and enable for BIB (Network Recording), or setup a SPAN session if doing Server recording. We will then use CTI events to record
See the Administration guide at the URL below, on page 90, Creating a Non-ACD user.
