INSPECTION LOT
INSPECTION LOT CREATION QA01
1. Standard transaction to create an inspection lot
Follow path below or alternatively use transaction: QA01
Note: you can use the QM Grouping to find the materials. To do this, click on
the down arrow (or F4 button) in the material field and enter the QM Grouping
field in the dialog box presented
Click Enter
Enter a batch number and a quantity in the Insp Lot Qty field, the value that you
enter in here has no impact so a nominal 100 would be fine .This is because we
are using Non Stock Relevant Inspection Lots .Press
265101864.doc
about the batch not existing, press Yes to create the batch and by-pass the
message.
The following data is not mandatory but enter if necessary:
1. Production date
2. Sample date
3. Line
4. Equipment
5. Add Eq. Info
6. Batch Sequence
7. Add. information
If there are no more data to be entered click on the Save button to save the
inspection lot.
Note: If more than one inspection plan exist for the material, the system will
propose a list of inspection plans, and the user has to select one inspection plan on
the proposed list.
The inspection lot is then created and the number is displayed at the bottom of the
screen.
265101864.doc
Enter inspection lot number and press enter.
Proceed with the following to see information copied from master data to the
inspection lot during creation.
Click on the
tab
As we only have 1 Insp Type the assignment of the Insp Type is automatic
Also the system will find only one inspection plan, the inspection plan will be
automatically assigned:
Then, click on
. You will see the number of physical samples that need to
be taken for this IL. This is dependant on the Partial Sample data that has been
maintained in the Inspection Plan (see document on inspection plan for further
details).
265101864.doc
Click on:
Do not forget to save before leaving.
The inspection lot is then created and the number is displayed at the bottom of the
screen.
Or, with more criterias, change the match code, by clicking here:
265101864.doc
You will get a list of inspection lots. Choose the one you want:
265101864.doc
NOTE:
265101864.doc
Or type in
Then
One in the selection screen you can enter into the transaction via a number of ways
by plant, origin, material number, dates, and work centers .You can also change
the Selection Screen by selecting the icon circled below
265101864.doc
For this training document we will use the original selection screen
Press F8
The system gives a list of inspection lots (on the left side) and displays the content
of the oldest inspection lot (on the right side of the screen):
10
265101864.doc
Then you need to select the close on continue radio button and then save. This
means that you will not have to go through all the different status but go directly
to status 5.
11
265101864.doc
When saving, the system closes the window and put some green lights at the
characteristic level (on the left side). If a test fails, the light is red.
You can also enter icons like < or >, these can be found in the Attribute column.
As soon as you select the desired icon, it will pull into the Result column.
12
265101864.doc
The invalid icon can also be used but only for single results not summarised
If you enter this attribute and the system is working out an average for you on a
number of different results, this invalid result will be taken out of the calculation.
If you are using a fixed scope then any invalid results will allow a new line to
have a new result entered.
In the below example you can see that 5 results are expected ( this is fixed ) , 5
results have been entered , but 2 have been entered as invalid , allowing 2 new
lines to have new valid results to be entered .Also the average of 22 is based on the
3 valid results , 10, 30 and 25 .
You can also enter in some text if desired this could be useful when wanting to
describe why a result has failed.
13
265101864.doc
14
265101864.doc
15
265101864.doc
You will then get this message box where you select force
You then presented with the following message box where you select Accept and
then
16
265101864.doc
Then you will see that the characteristics goes to status 5 with no result entered
17
265101864.doc
18
265101864.doc
d/ go to sample calculation:
19
265101864.doc
e/ record the results according to the new specifications of the new inspection
plan
Situation2: already started results recording:
Change results or add results like demonstrated before
Situation3: modification when UD has already been made:
The modification will be taken into consideration for the next inspection lot
After the first goods receipt: everything has to be recorded, characteristic 0010
and 0020
The colour of the characteristic 0020 line is black not blue (indicating a skip), and
on the detailed screen, the line has a skip status (4), and it is not possible to
record any result as the field is greyed out
Manufacturing Team SAP Competency Centre
20
265101864.doc
You can still activate this line even though it is skipped and add your result.
For some of the plants we have used Long Term Characteristics (LTC), these are for
characteristics where the results can take a while to be determined, they are noncritical results.
Essentially these LTC allow the physical sample to be closed based on short term
characteristics, allowing the Usage Decision to be passed. This is so the stock can
be released if on QI hold.
It will allow them to go back to the IL and record the LTC when ready.
Although for the system to recognise this when using QE51N they must select with
long term inspection
21
265101864.doc
It does require the person who fills in the last critical characteristic to know that
they are doing this and to then release the stock
22
265101864.doc
WORK LIST
WORKLIST - QA32
This report would be useful as a House Keeping Report for a Lab supervisor to check
that the correct transactional process is occurring and that Inspection Lots are
being properly closed down by having had a Usage Decision being passed on them .
Type in QA32
Make your own selections; you may want to come in by workcentre, by material, or
by day.
Be careful also of the lay out (variant of presentation) and the reference field
monitor (which may have an impact on the colours red/ yellow/ green).
For this training manual the Ref Field Monitor was a 3. This shows the status of
the Inspection Lot.
23
265101864.doc
But 4 could be used for example to show all open Characteristics, even when the
Usage Decision has been passed so this would indicate a forced usage decision
or to find outstanding Long Term Characteristics.
The Traffic light colour indicates whether the Inspection Lot has a usage decision if
less than 7 days without a usage decision then the colour will be yellow, if over 7
days the colour will be red, if a usage decision has been passed then the traffic
light will be green
Select

recording. There are two possibilities. There are characteristics who where failed and
you have rejected samples. The other possibility is that you have only short term
characteristics in your inspection lot and there is noting been analysed jet in the
inspection lot.
When you execute the variant, you get a report similar like the next screen shot.
The red light IL are older than 7 days, the orange triangle hasnt reached the 7 days
jet.
To inshore that cancelled lots are not in this selection, we also filtered the cancelled
lots out of the report.
There are a lot of possibilities with this report. You can go direct to the UD screen and
make the user decision. Also displaying the recorded results is possible and if
necessary you can record results as well from here.
25
265101864.doc
In the hit list you select the line where you want to revoke the UD and you press the
usage decision button.
From now on you can record again results for this inspection lot number. Be careful
because the automatic user decision is running every 15 minutes up to every hour
(depending of the plant configuration). If you havent done you change before the
auto UD runs the user decision will be made again.
26
265101864.doc
USAGE DECISION
Results recording using the STD QA11 transaction
With a batch job setup the passing of the Usage Decision (UD) is automatic.
However an automatic UD can only take place if all results are passed (Short term
critical results) .The UD is a trigger for the next step which is releasing the stock if
on QI hold. This releasing of stock is only automatic if using SRIL.
So you will only have to use this transaction when one or more of your results has
failed/or no result has been entered and therefore the UD will not be automatic.
The user then needs to decide whether this failure is critical or not and manually
set the UD to be accepted or rejected. If rejected further action in the stock status
must take place .The material must be placed on Blocked (S) and further tests or
other actions must take place( handled either in IM/WM transaction)
Path:
Press Enter
The system displays eventual failures on the inspections or warns the user if any
results are missing:
27
265101864.doc
If you select on the Physical Samples tab you can see which samples the failed
characteristics belong to.
28
265101864.doc
When the UD can be made, fill the following field UD Code
29
265101864.doc
30
265101864.doc
This transaction starts with a selection screen. For triggering this selection
automatically, this selection has to be saved as a variant, and then has to be
scheduled.
You then see a list of the Variants that you have created in the previous transaction
31
265101864.doc
You then tell the system when you want the job to first run , the date and time and
then if you want to set it up as a regular occurrence you select Schedule
periodically
32
265101864.doc
It will then ask for the frequency, this example is every 15 mins. Then select
create
If you want to see the scheduling then you can select the line and select show
scheduling
33
265101864.doc
34
265101864.doc
Scenario 1 Bulk Materials where the material does not move Sloc and
retains its real batch number
Firstly you can view the stock that you want to move to UR stock by using MMBE
Here we can see the stock in Sloc 0001 in the QI column
35
265101864.doc
Fill in the following below fields. A 321 movement takes a material from QI to UR, a
322 does the reverse. Press
Fill in the below field, using the correct batch number and quantity. As this
material does not move Sloc the Recv Sloc field does not need to be filled in.
Press
You will then see the next screen, but with certain warning messages appearing
(these always appear at the bottom in yellow),
through these
36
265101864.doc
Finally check MMBE to make sure that the stock has now moved from QI to UR but
is still in 0001 Sloc. It also still has it real batch code
37
265101864.doc
Scenario 2 Where the material does move Sloc and is consumed from a
different Sloc to where it is GR and the batch turns to 1
The process is the same except for one difference, please follow screen shots
below
The difference between the 2 scenarios is that you fill in the Recv Sloc field
here, with the Sloc of where it gets consumed from. Press
38
265101864.doc
Then finally check MMBE, you can see that the Sloc has changed and another
important thing is that the batch has changed to 1 from the real batch
39
265101864.doc
Type in the Special Sample R&D material number, the plant and 89 (this will always
be 89)
Here as you see the fields circled in yellow, you can see the text of your special
sample and the Inspection type being pulled through from the Material Master.
Highlighted in red you can see the fields that need to be entered.
40
265101864.doc
The first one is the batch field, here you must enter the project number that
R&D should have provided .In the Add Info field you can enter the details of the
material or mix of materials that you are testing. You should enter in the SAP codes
in here.
In the other Add Info you should enter the project manager.
Then in the Insp lot qty field you can enter a nominal 1 in here. It does not
really matter what you enter in here as it has no impact
41
265101864.doc
As you press
42
265101864.doc
Be aware of the IL lot number highlighted. You then press save
As you now need to record your results for this R&D sample, you can see below that
it will only pull through the 5 characteristics that I have selected.
Using QE51N
Or ZQM_RES
43
265101864.doc
You then enter in your plant number and your workcentre (this is a mandatory
field). You can set up variants here, so as users do not need to remember which
workcentre number is theirs.
You can also narrow your criteria by entering via physical sample number, material
number, master inspection characteristic or production date. The production date
is held within the IL (Inspection Lot).
In this example I will execute
workcentre.
44
265101864.doc
You will see all open samples that require results to be entered
The first column shows the text of the open IL
The second the sample number.
The columns after this shows all the open characteristics, where results need to be
entered .If the field is greyed out then this is either a characteristic that belongs to
a different sample and material or a characteristic that is in a skip mode (status 4).
You can still activate when in a skip by double clicking on the grey field to turn it
white (active)
If you are entering a Qualitative result as you click in the field you will see a drop
down box appear
45
265101864.doc
As you select the drop down box, you will see the list of the selected set that you
can choose from.
By selecting your choice, you will bring this desired result through to the table.
You do not have to use the drop down box to select from you selected set list, you
can simply type in the number of the result instead if you find this quicker.
46
265101864.doc
This setting is also maintained within the Inspection Plan (another piece of master
data). You can find it by selecting the line and control indicators
47
265101864.doc
Here you also find the setting .If you want quick mass entry of results it is best to
use a summarised characteristic. This however means that it will only allow one
entry of a result , if you want to enter lots of results ( for example for the system
to work out an mean average for you ) then you will need to use single and
ZQM_RES will become less useful for quick mass entry of results.
If you need a single result characteristic, then you can still use this transaction,
you just double click on the jigsaw icon and it will take you to a similar STD
transaction to QE51N. (See below)
Then you can enter your single result.
This jigsaw icon will also appear if a single result that is skipped, it will allow you
to enter but an extra warning box appears, telling you the item is skipped .If you
continue, it will take you to the same screen as above.
Please note this warning box telling you it is a skipped item only appears for single
not summarised characteristics.
48
265101864.doc
The report will most probably be used for one workcentre for one particular
characteristic for one day.
Here we can see all the open results for the selected day, for one workcentre for
one characteristic. If you are confident that all the results are ok, then enter in the
result for ok (in this example 1) in each box. If the list is big then you can use
the Ctrl Y, Ctrl C, and Ctrl V (cut and paste) option to speed this entry up.
49
265101864.doc
50
265101864.doc
Once your result has been entered and you press enter, it will pull through the text
if a Selected Set
51
265101864.doc
You can choose to change these results at this stage if you wish, by double clicking
on the line or by pressing the unlock icon. This will then re-activate the field to
change your entry.
You then make your changes and then re lock and save
52
265101864.doc
53
265101864.doc
54
265101864.doc
This characteristic will only be able to be seen in 2 days time.
There is a way of being able to see this result, you need to check the box on the
selection screen samples in incub time
Now you will get to see the 3rd characteristic salmonella negative and you can
enter these results if you have taken this sample out earlier than the stated 2 days
If there is any Long Term Characteristics (LTC) used then these will appear and will
not be prohibited from appearing in the report. Users must be aware of this as
potentially mistakes could be made here and results entered earlier than they
should be in error. However once all the short term characteristics have been
entered and the Usage Decision has been passed , the LTC can no longer be entered
here , they have to be entered using QE51N ticking the with long term inspection
box on the bottom of the selection screen.
There is also one last box on the selection screen Display hit list . This really is
for information purposes only but you can enter results too
55
265101864.doc
This is designed to show you all the info regarding the selection criteria that you
pick.
You can see all the info, like the IL lot number material number, batch, production
date and any other bespoke info like, equipment, line, etc.
You can also enter results from here, by selecting the line and pressing on goto
results table . This will take you to the normal table that we have seen previously
for entering results
56
265101864.doc
QM Order
Activity costs connected to R&D testing will be captured in a QM order and this
order will be settled to a cost center for the project.
Cost center should be the cost center for the project. Several projects can share
the same cost center.
Cost of analysis will first be captured by the QM Order and then settled by the
controlling team to the appropriate cost center
Profit center to use should be the one where the cost center is assigned to (this has
to be provided by the CO team)
QM Order Type to be used is ZQ01 (period collective settlement)
One QM Order to be created per Project
The steps to be performed in SAP is shows below. For this example, the following
data is used:
Profit Center
490299
Cost Center (for settling cost to)
49028501
Cost Center Lab
49027301
Step 1:
QK04 creation of QM Order
The R&D project number is entered to the short text of the QM order to make it
easier for the lab people to find the correct QM order for doing their postings.
57
265101864.doc
Step 2:
KKF2 Change Order use this transaction to make changes to the QM Order if
necessary. Eg, if the wrong R&D project number is entered to the short text of the
QM order.
Step 3:
KB21N Record Activity
In Scm Variant: choose Order
The times used for analysis are now recorded to the QM Order. The sending cost
center is the lab cost center (49027301). Activity type used should be QLM1.
Click Save when all information has been entered.

You then get taken to the below view where you enter the environmental material
the plant and always 89. You then select create.
You will then be asked to enter in the planned date. This is so you can create these
IL into the future; you will enter in here the date you plan to do these
environmental tests.
60
265101864.doc
You then see a list of all the possible places (combinations of lines and equipment)
where this particular environmental test can be carried out (in this example there
is only one). You can add some extra text in the additional Info field and also
change the dates of the inspection if you so wish. Note that changes to the
production date will influence the preparation date in the physical samples.
As a default, each line is selected, you can deselect them all by using the deselect
box above and then reselect only a few if you want. Once you are happy you
select the create box
61
265101864.doc
You then have a wide selection of fields to choose. This selection should allow all
possible combinations that you should require
It also allows you to split between Quant and Qual characteristics if required
62
265101864.doc
As you enter into this transaction you will see all of the quantitative results, you
will see the whole list of columns, with all of the possible fields that may be
required. As you scroll across you will see the Recorded Results, which is one of the
important columns.
63
265101864.doc
You can then choose to download to an Excel file .By following the menu path as
shown below or this icon
Once the data is in the Excel file then it can manipulated as required
64
265101864.doc
On the screen you manipulate the table layout by changing the position of the
columns by using the below icon
65
265101864.doc
You then need to fill in all of the below fields and then press
the desired label to the desired printer.

MCXB. General results for materials
MCXB is a reporting tool, useful for lab manager to make timely overviews of the
amount of analyses done in the lab.
This can be done by several selection criteria (per material, work centre,
characteristic, ).
In the start screen there
are numerous selection
possibilities.
e.g. if you want to know
what has been analysed in
a work centre, you fill in
only the work centre.
In this example only the
plant is filled in, the
analysis period is whole
2006.
With such a selection, we
can later on see how
many analyses in 2006
are done in a certain work
centre, on a material or on
a characteristic.
Next screen gives you a summation per material of all analysed samples, how many
where ok, rejected, etc .
67
265101864.doc
there is a pop
68
