Purpose

During an inspection during production, you can also perform an early inspection for a goods receipt. This processing variant allows you to:

When the system releases a production order or process order, it can create an inspection lot for a goods receipt from production (inspection lot origin 04), in addition to the inspection lot for a production inspection (inspection lot origin 03). You can then process these inspection lots according to your needs:

This inspection lot is optional in this process. You use this inspection lot to:

You cannot manage material stocks with this inspection lot.

The system creates this inspection lot when an order is released, but before a goods receipt is posted from production. You can use this inspection lot to:

Prerequisites

The following conditions must be met in the inspection settings of the material master:

This will allow the system to automatically create an inspection lot when a production or process order is released.

Process Flow

  1. A process order is released (for example, to produce 1000 liters of paint). When the order is released, the system creates two inspection lots (inspection lot origins 03 and 04).
  2. You inspect an initial quantity of 250 liters in the inspection lot with lot origin 03.
  3. You post a partial quantity of 250 liters to the warehouse stock in a goods receipt.
  4. The system posts this quantity to the previously stock-free inspection lot with lot origin 04. This inspection lot now has an actual stock quantity of 250 liters.

  5. You have the following options for processing this inspection lot further:

Case 1

You make a usage decision with an acceptance and post all open stocks.

Case 2

You make a usage decision with a rejection and post all open stocks.

Case 3

You do not make a usage decision; the stock remains in the inspection lot.

Case 4

You do not make a usage decision, but you make a stock posting (for example, 100 liters to unrestricted-use stock).

 

  1. You produce a second partial quantity of 400 liters of paint for this order and post this quantity to warehouse stock. Depending on how you processed the first partial quantity of 250 liters in step 4, the system responds as follows:

Case 1

As a result of the acceptance that was made with the first usage decision, the system posts this and all subsequent partial quantities for the process order to unrestricted-use stock.

Case 2

As a result of the rejection that was made with the first usage decision, the system creates a new inspection lot with lot origin 04 and posts the quantity of 400 liters to this new lot.

Case 3

Since a usage decision was not made for the first partial quantity, the first inspection lot with an actual quantity of 250 liters receives another stock entry of 400 liters. The actual stock quantity of this first inspection lot is now 650 liters.

Case 4

Since a usage decision was not made for the first partial quantity, but 100 liters were nevertheless posted to unrestricted-use stock, the first inspection lot with an actual quantity of 150 liters receives another stock entry of 400 liters. The actual stock quantity of this first inspection lot is now 550 liters.

 

  1. You produce the remaining quantity of the process order and post these partial quantities as described in steps 4 and 5.
