Skip Inspection LOT

Dear Gurus,
suppose one material having QM activate,all the processes have been carried out on regularbasis.
now if a vendor supplies material with no rejection last three months,system should skip inspection lot
material should post the stock to unrestricted not in QC. stock
is it possible in SAP

Keep in mind that dynamic modification is not time driven. It is lot driven. You cannot specify any set times.
The only time you can specidy a number of days is for the reset value. The DMR gets reset if NO lots are created in a given time. Each time you get a new lot, the reset date is recalculated.

DMR for skipping inspection lots

Hi friends,
I am new to QM. I want to create DMR for skipping four lots after one inspected lot.
Can you please tell me, configuration steps reqd.
Thanks in advance.

Tcode QDR1 > set name > at lot creation > next >
stage 10 > click on insp stage, Severity 04
stage 20 > tick on skip
stahe 30 > Severity 04
select both lines & click on stage change
stage 10
no. of insp : 1

now u can apply this DMR in inspction plan
It may help you.

QM 'Skip' Inspection Lot Characteristics

Does anyone know where I would be able to find information on 'Skip' master inspection characteristics through an inspection lot? And, is it possible for a certain characteristic to skip on a scheduled interval as opposed to a characteristic that is skipped every time?
Thank you

Skip inspection lots

Hi All,
Can anybody please guide me abt Skip lots and automatic usage decion.
According to what I have understood,if i activate Skip lots and automatic UD tick in QM view of Materail Master and keep the characterstics in Inspection plan as optional charracteristics,Automatic UD will be made for the lot after particular time lapse (time maintained in Customising) and stock posting of lot will be done to unrestricted stock
My doubts are-
Is result recording required?
When will the lot have stats as SKIP?
Are there some more conditions for SKIP lots?
Please guide and also correct me if I am wrong

Hi
If I am not using dynamic modification rule,Can i not skip lots?
No
Also,If i can,is result recording necessary if DMR is not being used?
It is not mandetory to do RR for SKIP lots
My scenario is that my client does not want to deactivate the inspection type in setup but does not want inspection for a particular material to happen for next 4 months.
Best sloution will be to use Quality Info Record for the same.
As you aware that Quality Info Record is Vendor-Material-plant combination.
So in QI01-->You can Maitain Relese Date: -->This will be 4 months Hence date.
& In Inspection control of QInfo record you can maintain "No Inspection"
This will put material to Unrestricted use directly after GR made till valid date.
After that you can change the date.
or
Use DMR & in QDR3 you can maintain "Reset period " as 4 months.
this will reset the DMR & lots will come to Quality for inspection.
I hope this will add some value.

Inspection lot-skip

Dear Gurus,
suppose one material having QM activate,all the processes have been carried out on regularbasis.

is it possible in SAP
Siva

Hi Siva
As per my knowledge it is not possible to skip inspection based upon duration.
For ur requirement u can try following
1. u don't want inspection if material is coming with good quality for 3 months - u must be knowing the approximate number of lots that will come in 3 months...
2. use DMR- Stage 1 number of insp= no. of lots. if all lots accepted to go stage 2
3. stage 2 skip= as per ur requirement
4. schedule job for skip lots in qa17
after GR, inspection lot will be created. these lots will be automatically posted to unrestricted use as per scheduled job

Source inspection - inspection lot skip for certified vendor

Hii,
I have a requirement in which during source inspection, the inspection lot should not be created if the Vendor is certifed. I have made the following settings:-
1. In Vendor Master, maintained the Actual QM system in control-reference data.(QM system marked for skip in customizing)
2. In Material Master-
    - Activated QM Proc- QM control Key -Delivery release
    - Target QM system
    - Inspection type for source inspection activated in inspection set up
3.In Quality Info Record for Vendor,Material,Plant combination-in Inspection Control tab-
    - Maintained the existing QM system & validity
    - Selected 'No Inspection' in Insp. control
    In Vendor source inspection tab maintained the inspection type & lead time.
Inspite of the above settings, I can see this PO (for vendor,material,plant) in the source inspection worklist(QI07).
Please suggest as to which setting I might be missing.
Thanks!!!
Regards,
SV

Hi,,
You have to go T code QI07
where give input Vendor ,Material plant,
Delivery dateopening peroid
Then execute the transaction .
Select line item click oninsp lot & save.
Where you have trigger lot for the same then only lot will get genarated.

SANIL
This confugaration required if you have option if lots get rejected.
Quality management-QM logistics-QM procurement -Control key
Define control key;
GR/Source inspection control;
GR for rejection; three option is available
1.source inspection has no effect on goods receipt
2.Creation of new inspection lot
3.Goods receipt not allowed

Inspection lot number ranges skipping

My inspection lot number ranges are skipping, those are std number ranges like 01 origin, 04 origin etc, what could be the reason for that.
Inspn lots are getting generated and I took UD also. But certain numbers in the range got skipped.
Eg:- Incoming inspn lot 010000000041 then it comes 010000000045
Lot numbers 01/42, 01/43, 01/44 does not exist in sytem.
Please suggest a way out
Thanks

Craig,
But expert suggestion says, not to switch off buffer thru SNRO as it may affect fuctionality as you said early in this discussion.
But I believe, this is to be relooked by SAP as number range skipping is not good (My case its skipping 5-7 numbers at a time). But I am not convinced with the reply from SAP also.
Anyway thanks to you craig for your advice.
SAP Note on this matter for reference of all. Thanks
================================
Note: 62077
Summary
Symptom
Gaps (jumps) occur when allocating internal numbers.
The status of the number range interval does not match the number that was last assigned.
The number assignment does not reflect the insert sequence.
IMPORTANT: Read Notes 504875 and 678501.
Other terms
Document number, number range, number range object, buffering, current number level, trip number assignment, number interval, CO document, CO actual posting, inspection lot, material document, physical inventory document, production order number, planned order number, process order number, maintenance order number

Reason and Prerequisites
A large number of number range objects are buffered. When the system buffers a number range object, it does not update numbers individually in the database but reserves a preset group of numbers (depending on the number range object) in the database the first time a number is requested, and makes these numbers available to the application server in question. The following numbers can then be taken directly from the application server buffer. New numbers are not used in the database until the application server buffer has been used up.
The effects described under "Symptom" are a direct consequence of this:
If an application server is shut down, the numbers that are left in the buffer (that is, that are not yet assigned) are lost. As a result, there are gaps in the number assignment.
The status of the number range interval reflects the next free number that has not yet been transferred to an application server for intermediate buffering. The current number level therefore does not display the number of the "next" object.
The current number level (for each server) can be displayed using Transaction SM56. Call transaction SM56 and choose the menu 'Goto' -> 'Entries'. In the dialog box, enter the client, the affected number range object (for example, RK_BELEG) and possibly the required subobject (corresponds to the controlling area for the object RK_BELEG).
If you use several application servers, the numerical sequence will not reflect the (chronological) insert sequence because the numbers are buffered separately on the individual hosts.
Buffering the number range objects has a positive effect on performance, because the system no longer has to access the database (number range table NRIV) for each posting. Furthermore, a serialization of this table (database locking) is prevented to a large extent so that posting procedures can be carried out in parallel.
Solution
Since number range buffering does not cause any expressly assured qualities to be lost, no correction is required.
If you still require continuous allocation, you can deactivate the number range buffering specifically for individual objects.
Proceed as follows:
- Start Transaction SNRO and enter the affected object.
- Choose 'Change'.
- Deactivate buffering: Choose 'Edit' -> 'Set Up Buffering' -> 'No Buffering'.
- If you want to change the buffer size only, enter the corresponding value in the field 'No. of numbers in buffer'.
- Save the changes.
Please note that this change is a modification. The modification is overwritten as soon as the affected number range object is redelivered - in other words, you must check the change manually each time you import a release.
In particular, read Note 678501, bearing in mind that changing the buffering type - if not explicitly recommended by SAP - constitutes a modification. For other possible solutions, refer to the following notes:
179224, 599157 and 840901.
For the the following number range objects, gaps may cause users to have doubts since they are 'expecting' a sequential numbering:
Area CO:
- RK_BELEG   (CO Document)
CAUTION: Note that the problems described in Notes 20965 and 29030 may occur if you deactivate buffering.
- COPA_IST (Document number in actual posting)
- COPA_PLAN (Document number in planned posting)
- COPA_OBJ   (Profitability segment number)
Area FI:
- DEBITOR    (Customer master data)
- KREDITOR   (Vendor master data)
Area HR:
- RP_REINR (Trip numbers)
Area PM, PP, PS
- AUFTRAG    (Order number, production, process, maintenance order, network number)
- QMEL_NR    (Number range - message)
Area MM:
- MATBELEG   (Material documents)
- MATERIALNR (Material master)
Area QM:
- QLOSE      (Inspection lots in QM)
- QMEL_NR    (Number range - message)
- QMERK      (Confirmation number)
- QMERKMALE (Master inspection characteristics in QSS)
- QMERKRUECK (Confirmation number of an inspection characteristic in QM results processing)
- QMETHODEN (Inspection methods in QM)
- ROUTING_Q (Number ranges for inspection plans)
- QCONTROLCH (Quality control chart)
Area Workflow:
- EDIDOC     (IDocs)
Number range buffering can be activated or deactivated at any time.
Number range objects that have to be continuous due to legal specifications (for example, RF_BELEG, RV_BELEG), or due to a corresponding application logic must not be buffered using the buffering type 'Main memory buffering'. See also Notes 37844 (for RF_BELEG) and 23835 (for RV_BELEG).

Inspection lot number is skipping

Dear friends,
When i create production GRN/purchase GRN, lot numbers are created. But, the sequence is not maintaining. i would like to know what are the conditions by which lot numbers do not follow the sequence ?. What are the customising settings to be done?. I checked in the default values for the inspection type and define inspection types settings. In these two settings, i could not able to find where i have to do the settings for the maintainance of the sequence. At the same time , for the inprocess inspection(insp type 03) the sequence is maintaining.
regards, ebenezer

There are cases that when you create all the required entries for GR, but doenst post a GR, at this case the system will assign a inspection lot number internally and holds it in buffer. If you cancel posting that GR and again after some time
Do the same and post the GR then there will be new number generated skipped one number. This is a common problem.
There may be cases that when you at the last stage of the posting GR then there can be case that power supply is lost or same batch is being accessed by some one or system gets hanged in such cases also the sequence will be skipped.
Hope this helps you.

No Inspection Lot required for Skipped Lot

Hi Experts,
I have used DMR to skip 10 lots from a particular vendor and inspect the 11th lot. But the client's requirement is even inspection lot should not be generated for the skipped lots.
Also, if the material is procured from some other vendor, then the inspection lot should be generated everytime.
How can I map this?
Please advise.
Regards,
Rahul

The only alternative I can think of would be to use a development. Set up the inspections to happen . No DMR. You then would use a user exit, (I believe QAAT002, maybe QAAT001 would work). One of those allow you to set a flag in the user exit that supreses the creation of the inspectoin lot.
You would have to have the user exit look up the GR's for the vendor/material/plant combination since the last inspection lot for this combination. Then if the count is equal or greater than ten, you create the lot. If less then 10, you suppress the creation of the lot.
I would be careful how you code the user exit. You'll probably only want this to apply to certain materials so you have to come up with a way that allows flexibability in what materials this is used for. I might suggest using the QMin procuremnet control key. If you have no procurement functions, you usually define a control key 0000 for this . Copy that to 1001 for instance. It will have no functions. But your user exit would only run if the control key was 1001. It would immediately exit for any other control key in use. You might need additional control keys if you do use other features of the conrtol key such as COA receipt. In that case you might have two control keys that trigger your user exit. 1001 and 1002. 1002 would require a cert.
I hope this is clear.

Inspection lot should be created only for particular vendor

Hi
Can anyone please help in achieving the below scenario:
*Material has been assigned to the inspection type A (one time inspection) has been set as preffered and active in the inspection set up in the material master.
*Quality level has been created for material and vendor such that inspection should be carried out when next stage is 1 and no inspection should carried out when next stage is 2.
*Tasklist has been assigned with material and vendor .
Material can be supplied by different vendors,For this material, inspection should be done only for one vendor and for other vendors there should not be any inspection to be done and no inspection lot should be created.i.e Inspection lot should be created only for one vendor say AA whereas now inspection lot is getting created when goods receipt is done for the purchase order with other vendor BB.
My requirement is the inspection lot should not be created when goods receipt is done with other vendors say BB except AA.
Is there any other way other than using quality info record to achieve this.
I can try with DMR but the thing is there should not be inspection lot created while posting GR.
can anyone suggest me any other way to achieve this requirement.

There are user exits when you create an inspection lot. One of those could be used to suppress the inspection lot. Have you looked at these? Have you researched any QM user exits yourself yet? This isn't the first time this specific question has been asked over the years.
It's not hard and there are lists of QM user exits available all over the internet.
Please do some research.
You can also assign vendors to inspection plans with a DMR that requires one inspection, and than after that creates all skip lot inspections which you automatically close by a batch job. The first lot can be manually forced closed. Thereaftter all receipts would be skipped. Not 100% but pretty darn close. This requires that you know which vendors to assign to which plan. Probably as much data maintenance as maintaing the Q-info records.
And yes.. your client needs to come up with better reasons than "I don't wanna..". It's part of a consultants job to convince them.

How to do single usage decession for multiple inspection lots

we are clearing Usage decision each & every lot for which taking lot of time, if any setting for a GR Document number/Multi GR document nos connected lots to be cleared at a time automitically,

Hi,
In addition to Anupam's reply,
Follow the SPRO path for Auto UD---> Select your plant for AUTO UD settings -
> then go to InspLot completion tab where you need to define following time fields under Automatic Usage Decision tab page :
Delay time for skip lot (in Mins)
Waiting time (hrs) & Waiting time (Mins).
Waiting time is the time which must elapse after inspection lot creation after that only system will carry out automatic usage decision.
Save above settings.
Further as a master data part, you need to maintain tick in Automatic UD check box for the respective material for which you want activate automatic UD.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Revert if still any query.

Quality Management During Goods Receipt (Inspection Lot)

Hi all,
>>>>>>>>>>>>
REQUIREMENT
<<<<<<<<<<<<
I have a requirement that i need to write an interface program which will receive a file from external agency (manufacturer) and process goods receipt until inspection results. The following steps need to be taken care of;
1) Create a equipment (Utilities - It is an unique identifier for each unit of the material).
2) Do Goods Receipt for the PO with the equipment numbers created.
3) Create Inspection Lot for the material document created during the GR for each equipment number.
4) Execute Inspection Result.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
INFO NOW
<<<<<<<<<<<<
Inspection lot can be created from MIGO directly by SPRO config and MM master data maintenance.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
DONE
<<<<<<<<<<<<
Called BAPI to create Equipment.
Called BAPI to create Goods Receipt.
Inspection Lot Settings to create lots during MIGO
1) New Inspection Type Created as SG1 at SPRO->QM->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Maintain Inspection types. The maintenance is a copy of type 01.
2) Assign Inspection Type to Lot Origin at SPRO->QM->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Maintain Inspection Lot Origins and Assign Inspection Types. SG1 is maintained against lot origin 01 with variant 01.
3) Set Default values for SG1 at SPRO->QM->Quality Inspection->Inspection Lot Creation->Define Default Values for Inspection Type with parameters same as for 01.
4) In Material master for the record set the inspection setup in the quality management tab. put SG1 as active and preferred. Also set Post to insp Stock, Insp with task list, Auto Assign, Skips allowed, Serial Numbers poss, Control Insp lot as For each Material Doc Item.
I have to kow how to select the Inspection Plan for the lot and thus set the status of lot to released and get it ready for results.
I also have BAPI ready for Inspection Result.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
TESTING

I have tested it and was working fine till last thursday. I have the above mentioned settings even now in the system. Can there be anything else which the functional consultants would have change that affected the process.

Avoiding creation of inspection lot for certain vendors.

Hi,
There is one requirement from my client side , that Inspection lot should not be created for certain vendors ( Issuing plant also consider as vendor here).
The correct requirement is if it is transfered from other plants it should not create the lot and on the other vendors it should create.
We have a have a option through maintaining the QM info record but it was not maintained earlier and newly creation is too difficult.
I remember there is some exit is available to overcome this. Any one having the earlier experince on this...Provide the exit and FM name... High priority one.
Regards
Pragash

Dear Pragash
1) You can maintain Quality info Record in enmass using QI06. Only maintain for the vendor you need to skip.
2) This exit can help you in controling the inspection lot

Skip inspection at the time of Goods Receipt

I want to skip inspection since it has been done at source. How can I do it at the time of GR ? I know about activating indicator 'Source Inspection - No GR', but I don't find it in MIGO screen.

If you maintian this indicator in Q-info record then you will see that indicator in MIGO (QI01)
No GR Inspection if Source Inspection Lot Exists
Use
If you set this indicator, the system does not create any inspection lots
     at goods receipt for purchase order items that have undergone a source
     inspection.

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

Gajesh
