Making Mass Changes to the Inspection Setup

Prerequisites

You must have edited the QM-specific data in the Quality Management view of the material master.

If it is not stock-relevant
If it is stock-relevant and at least one active stock-relevant inspection type exists
If it is the first stock-relevant inspection type and no inspection stock exists, or if you set the indicator Activate despite insp. stock

When you deactivate the last inspection type relevant to stock, there must be no inspection stock for the material. To do this you must post the inspection lot quantities out of the inspection stock.

Procedure

Choose Logistics ® Quality management ® Quality planning ® Logistics master data ® Material ® Inspection setup
Choose Inspection setup, Mass processing
Select the materials you want to process. You can make the selection by using the plant, material, the material type and the material class.

Enter the required inspection type.

Edit the following indicators:

Indicator	What You Should Know
Activate despite insp. stock (only in the activation function)	If you set this indicator, inspection lots are created automatically, when you activate the first stock-relevant inspection type, to avoid stock inconsistencies between QM and MM. The inspection type is taken from Customizing. If you do not set this indicator, the inspection type for a material is only activated, if no stock inconsistencies will occur between QM and MM without the creation of additional inspection lots.
Do not display material list	If you set this indicator, the system immediately activates the inspection type for all selected materials, when the program is run. If you do not set this indicator, the system displays a list of materials. From this list, you can select the materials, for which you want to activate the inspection type.
Create change documents	If you set this indicator, change documents are created for all changes that are made to the materials. You can display these change documents in the material master record. If you want to distribute inspection setup data via ALE, using change documents, you must set this indicator. This ensures that all changes to the inspection setup are distributed in other systems.

Choose Execute.

The screen for editing the inspection setup parameters in the material master is displayed.

If you set the Do not display material list indicator, the data for the chosen inspection type is changed immediately for all selected materials.

If you did not set the Do not display material list indicator, select the materials from the list, for which you want to change the inspection type and choose Continue.
Save your data.
