Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) groups together all the necessary data for Quality Management to automatically create inspection documentsin the background in accordance with the Customizing for quality management. Here, EWM copies the inspection document number to the inbound delivery. In addition, EWM updates the document flow, the status for inspection planning, and, if necessary, the stock type in the inbound delivery.
You have carried out the Customizing for creating inspection documents .
You have defined inspection rules (see Master Data ).
In the delivery, you have specified all the data necessary for the creation of an inspection document. If not all of the necessary data exists in the delivery by the time at which EWM is to create the inspection documents, EWM creates the inspection documents later. For example, EWM is to create an inspection document when the inbound delivery is activated. The batch number is required for creation. EWM only creates the inspection document once you have specified the batch number.
In the following cases, EWM creates inspection documents in the background, regardless of Customizing:
If you or EWM activate an inbound delivery
If EWM sets the status
In Yard
for an inbound delivery
Before EWM creates a warehouse task
Before you post the goods receipt
When EWM creates an inspection document, it simultaneously updates the inbound delivery. EWM sets the
QM Check Planning
status type to the status value
Completed
and the
QM Counting Planning
status type to the status value
Completed
. Regardless of whether you carry out a quality inspection or not, EWM always updates the status data. For example, the result of quality inspection planning could be that EWM is not to carry out a quality inspection. EWM also sets the status data in this case.
Once EWM has created the inspection documents, it updates the document flow for the reference document types
Q01
and
Q03
. Thus, you can view all of the inspection documents for an inbound delivery in document flow.
If necessary, EWM updates the stock type. For example, EWM changes the stock type in the inbound delivery from unrestricted-use stock to stock in quality inspection.
