Acceptance Inspections (SAP Library - Quality Management (QM))

Acceptance Inspections

Purpose

You learn about the following elements of a quality inspection:

Inspection lot processing with selection of inspection plans, sample calculations, inspection instructions, usage decisions
Results recording for the inspection lot, including entry of characteristic values and defect data
Service entry and appraisal cost determination

The process also provides you with an insight into the following elements of inspection planning:

Inspection plans and material specifications
Basic data for inspection planning (inspection characteristics, inspection methods, test equipment)
Control of inspection types

Prerequisites

This process does not require any data from other processes. It supplements the "QM in Procurement and Storage" process. If you are procuring materials QS8X20, QS8X40 or QS8X60 instead of materials QS6X20 or QS6X60, you can use this process instead of the receiving inspection process step. The individual processes can be run separately. We recommend that you first run the process Acceptance Inspections (Simplified), before running the detailed version.
