Can an inspection plan be created for a non-quality group to perform? Also, can this inspection plan be automatically approved once complete, bypassing quality afterwards (no ‘pass’ or ‘fail’; just a notification)

QI Stock for Order based PO
Dear all,
I need to purchase a material for an account assigned PO i.e. F-Maintenance Order. This material has Visual Inspection attribute. When MIGO is done, this material should be posted to Stock in Quality Inspection at first.
At present, while doing MIGO, stock is showing as Posted in Quality Inspection, however; it is not showing anywhere. And, we are also able to confirm the Maintenance Order which should not be.
I need to happen it this way:
a. MIGO and stock should be posted to Quality Inspection
b. Quality Team should approve/reject the material
c. Until the Quality Inspection is done, Plant Maintenance should not be able to consume/confirm the Order. "Stock in QI, Order is not possible to process further" an error as such.
Sorry, if this is a very basic query for QM. Anyways to do it in standard/Any Exits?

Recurring Inspection process with Batch
Hi all,
I checked all the threads, i found that there are many threads for recurring inspection, 09 inspection type, use of 09 inspection type etc. that's why i have decided to write this blog, which will help us to know how to handle Recurring Inspection. This Blog or Process I am writing as per my knowledge, forgive me if something is missing.
Step by step process is given below
1. For Recurring inspection we required to activate Batch Management. Go To " OMCT " T-code and set batch level as per your requirement. system gives you facility to activate batches at plant level, Material level and client level for a material.
2. Activate Batch Status Management and give number range for it.
3. Create Material Master. For Example we have material master having number "81". in Plant data / Storage 1 activate batch management. Give Minimum Remaining shelf life Days (this days system will check when every you are doing GRN system will ask date of Manufacturing and with that date system will check remaining shelf life of material, and that date system will check with remaining shelf life days) also give total shelf life in same tab of Material.
4. In Quality Management tab activate inspection type 01 and 09 and give inspection interval in Days. Inspection interval is required to put material in block stock and generate Inspection lot with inspection type 09 before these many days.
5.now first time material will be purchased with normal purchase route. such as PR --- PO --- GR (at the time of GR system will ask date of manufacturing and batch will be generated as per configuration) --- Inspection lot gets generated with inspection type 01 ----- Result recording ---- Usage decision --- Unrestricted stock.
6. To check the Shelf life and batch go to MSC2N and check status of material (it will show in unrestricted) as material is under shelf life. now go to QA05 and set program in the background. or we can run QA07 every day to check deadline monitoring of Batches.
7. Now consider we have date of manufacturing as - 05.02.2015 now SLED/BBD of that material is 25.03.2015. now run QA07 front end or system will go for QA05 run in the background. select To inspection stock at lot creation and execute it.
8. System will generate inspection stock by posting that material to Inspection stock. If you go to check status of batch you will see that batch status is showing as restricted.
9. Go to QA32, put inspection type 09 and execute it. system will show lot created with 09 inspection type. Go for Result recording and UD. at the time of UD if you find that we can extend useful life of material then edit date in Inspection lot and save it.
10. System will calculate next inspection date and we can see batch status as Unrestricted.
These are the steps for Recurring inspection.

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.
Inspection lot not getting generated for schedule in stability study
Dear All,
Need your urgent help to solve a issue. I need to perform inspection of material after specified interval of time for which i am using stability study process. Following are the steps which i have followed :
1) Create initial sample (physical sample created)
2) Confirm initial sample
3) Initial test inspection lot( Inspection lot created )
4) Complete initial test
5) Specify storage conditions (Physical sample created with CRTD status)
6) Create testing schedule( Maintenance schedule is created )
7) I have scheduled maintenance plan through IP10 tcode. All the calls are getting generated.
Now i have given manual call in IP10, but inspection lot is not generating.

Skip inspection for partial lot for the same purchase order (if first lot is accepted)
Gurus,
We have a specific requirement:
We have partial deliveries from the vendor against the same purchase order. Now the requirement is - continue inspection of partial lots till any one lot is accepted, then skip the remaining lots.
For example, if the first shipment from the vendor is accepted, we need to skip inspection for all the remaining deliveries against the same purchase order. However if the first delivery is rejected continue inspection for remaining partial deliveries till one is accepted - then skip the rest.
I know we can skip lots using dynamic modification rule. But can we do that w.r.t a purchase order? Is there any work around for that?
Thanks!

Incoming Quality Certificates from Vendors via e-mail
Dear experts, I am currently investigating the feasibility of implementing a business process for receiving quality certificates from vendors via e-mail.
Scenario:
All in all the main idea is to offer our vendors a global point of contact for deploying any required quality certificates by using a single e-mail address such as "certificates@mycompany.com". Vendors could then forward the quality certificates as PDF attachments on e-mail with PO information. In our side we should have a way to digitally certify the vendor's email address in order to prevent spam. Once we get the e-mail from vendor so the certificate attachments should be transferred to SAP (via EAI?) in order to get standard incoming certificate record created for the PO (via iDoc's?)
Your comments and feedbacks will be highly appreciated.
Cheers, Julio.
Inspection Interval Change
in My industry, we have inspection interval period as 180 days but now it is changed to 365 days. Even though the inspection interval changed from 180 days to 365 days, the material is going for recurring inspection in 180 days if the material have stock already before it changed to 365 days
material : XX
initial inspection interval :180
stock : 4 kg
after inspection interval change (to 365 days) also the material is going for recurring inspection in 180 days but in actual in will be inspected for 365 days but not 180 days.

Source Inspection issue
Hi Gurus,
I have assigned source inspection in material master QM view. I have maintained quality info record (see attachment1). I have maintained procurement active indicator. I have also maintain control key as below (see attachment2). I have not maintained 01 Inspection type in material master.
My requirement is
1. if source inspection rejection happens, new inspection lot should be create using QI07?
2. After MIGO system creating inspection lot again. It should not generate??
MVT 651 versus MVT 655
L.S.
Here at our customer we have a return process where standard MVT 651 is used. We want to have the option that goods, with quality, are posted using a MVT655.
At first we would like to create QM entries for this material, but the question is if this works when the system detemines a 651 movement. Is than automaticaly a 655used depending on the quality control parameter 06 in the quality view of this material?
Or is is better to modifiy the positiontype so, via the scheduling type, a 655 is defined via this.
How can I print the IPQC inspection process?
Hi,gurus,
I have a question about printing the inspection process, our QM employee need it .

Issue with displaying QM control chart for specific date range
Dear All
In our chemical mfg organisation, we just implemented SAP QM solution and things are working fine. I have implemented control chart functionalities as below:
SPC Criteria in Inspection Plan: Task List Charateristics / Material (0020)
Sampling Procedure: Fixed Sample / SPC Inspection (without inspection point)
We use process orders to get the inspection lots for products (material) and record results for the MICs and UD the inspection lots.
Currently all our Control Chart have status 1 (created) and we have not moved any of those charts to status 3 and 5 yet.
Using QGC1 when user trying to run control chart for any particular material in the plant and for a specific date range, report showing all the charts for that material with different MICs as expected. Though the result is NOT restricted to the selection dates either against "Lot Created On" or " Insp. Start Date" ( may be due to SPC criteria????) , its always showing all the result for any particular MIC for that material starting from go live till today.
How to restrict the dispaly of result on the chart for any particular MIC against the Material / Plant within a specific date range ?
Looking forward for your response.
Best Regards

Deadline Monitoring
Hi QM'ers.
Our business wants to start using batch status managment and have the ability to block batches that have expired. Problem is I cannot seem to get QA07 to do anything for me... I just get the dreaded "No batches have been found for processing"
I have some test data setup:
Material with QM view, Inspection type 09 with material spec, Inspection interval is 10 days.
I have set up a simple material spec
I have recieved some batches that had a short shelf life and have now expired.
I run QA07 with the "Block batch" setting to change the batch status and ..... nothing happens "No batches have been found for processing"
Where am I going wrong here?
Any help greatly appreciated.
