Inspections (QM-IM)

You cannot archive or delete inspection lots that are still used in the system (for example by a link to a production order). During an archiving session the system checks whether:

  • The inspection lot is used in a production order header

  • The inspection lot is used in a delivery note item

  • The inspection lot is used in a quality level

  • The inspection lot is used in a transfer requirement item without a final delivery indicator

  • The inspection lot is used in an open quality notification

  • The inspection lot is used in a process order

If a process order has the status Relevant for process documentation, this also affects the inspection lot, since it is given the same status. This status requires order or batch logs for the process order. You can only archive the inspection lot, once the process order has been optically archived and its status has changed to Optical archiving taking place.

  • The inspection lot has been completed or cancelled

  • All stock has been posted for a stock-relevant inspection lot.

If you run the archiving program first as an Archiving test , you can display a list with the exact entries of where the chosen inspection lots are used, before starting the program as Productive Archiving .
