Use

If you use sample management of quality management (QM) for quality inspections during production, the system assigns a physical-sample drawing number when it creates the inspection lot. This number combines the data records of all physical samples of an inspection lot.

You can use this function to jump to physical-sample drawing of the relevant inspection lot from within the PI sheet and process the physical-sample records. You can, for instance, release or lock physical samples or print labels.

Sample Management

Prerequisites

For you to process the physical-sample drawing of an inspection lot from within the PI sheet, the following requirements must be met:

  • An in-process quality inspection has been defined for the material you want to produce in the material master record ( Quality Management view).

  • Sample management has been activated in the master recipe of the corresponding process order (see Planning the Physical Samples ).

The sample-drawing procedure specifies whether the drawing of physical samples must be confirmed, that is, whether the samples must be released after sample drawing.

  • An inspection lot and a physical-sample drawing number for inspection during production has been created for the process order.

Features

You can use function call QMJMP_SD (function module QPRS_PI_SAMPLE_DRAW_PROCESSING) available in the standard system to process physical-sample drawings.

In the master recipe or process order, you include the function call at the stage at which you want to release or lock your physical samples or process them in any other way. The function call’s only export parameter is the inspection lot number for the inspection during production. It is passed on during automatic characteristic value assignment in the process order.

In the PI sheet, you use the function call to start the QM transaction for processing the physical-sample drawing. For more information on how to carry out this transaction, see Processing a Physical-Sample Drawing . The system does not execute the function call:

  • When you process a PI sheet for test purposes

  • When you display a PI sheet
