Use
Master inspection characteristics can be used in inspection plans, (reference characteristics, copied, unlocked master inspection characteristics), material specifications (copied master inspection characteristics) and certificate profiles (reference characteristics). The where-used list displays the task lists, material specifications and certificate profiles, in which a particular master inspection characteristic is used.

Basic data
Inspection characteristic
Where-used list.
On the initial screen, enter a characteristic number and a plant. If necessary, use the input help.
Note
The input help list only contains one version of the master inspection characteristic- the current version. If there are other versions of the master inspection characteristic, they are not displayed in the list. This can result in the following:
The version on the list is not yet released or is not referenced. If you select and try to process such a version from the list, you receive a message that the master inspection characteristic is not referenced.
Another version of the master inspection characteristic (that is not displayed in the list) may be referenced. In this case, you should delete the version number from the initial screen and continue processing.
You cannot reference master inspection characteristics with status 1 in task lists or material specifications. In addition, you can only reference master inspection characteristics that are completely maintained. Therefore choose a master inspection characteristic that has status 2 and is maintained as a reference characteristic.
To display a particular version of an inspection characteristic, enter the required version.
If you do not make an entry, the usage overview includes all versions of the master inspection characteristic.
