You can only create multiple specifications in an inspection plan using the
Engineering Workbench
(EWB). This procedure assumes that you:
Have performed the necessary steps in Customizing for
Have previously worked with the
Engineering Workbench
and defined a default working area. If this is not the case, refer to the following documentation before proceeding further:
PP Documentation: PP - Engineering Workbench
QM Documentation: Inspection Planning with the Engineering Workbench
Maintained data for the inspection plan header, operations, and inspection characteristics
Choose
Note
The screen that appears depends on the default working area you previously defined in an earlier session of the
Engineering Workbench
.
On the selection screen, enter the material, plant, and task list type; then choose the desired plan level in the menu.
Note
As a prerequisite to the following steps, you must have created an inspection plan containing header data, operations, and inspection characteristics.
To create multiple specifications, choose
.The overview screen for the task list headers appears.
If the inspection plan is called up in the display mode, select the desired inspection plan and choose
Change/Lock.
In the header of the desired plan (
Multiple Specifications
indicator.
Select the desired inspection plan and choose
The overview screen for material-task list assignments appears.
Create a material-only assignment for the inspection plan (enter a material number, plant, and possibly a group counter). Note that you cannot use the assignments of multiple specifications to objects (country, customer, etc.) for task list determination when the inspection lot is being created. Therefore, you must always create a corresponding material-task list assignment for task list determination.
Create the required object assignments for the multiple specifications. Examples:
Material, plant, object, and object type or
Material, plant, customer, and object type or
Material, plant, customer, object, and object type
Note
Note that the object type must be compatible with the assignment. With the customer and object assignment in particular, you must decide whether the system should determine the suitability of a batch based on the customer or object.
To navigate to the level of the dependent characteristic specifications, choose
. This is where you define multiple specifications.In the context block of the EWB, enter the characteristic number and an operation number for which you want to define multiple specifications.
Choose
Create.
The fields for entering the multiple specifications are ready for input.
Position the cursor on the
Material
field in the table and call up the input help for this field.
All existing material-task list assignments are displayed.
Select the desired assignment to the customer and/or object, for which you want to define multiple specifications.
Depending on whether you are processing a quantitative or qualitative inspection characteristic, enter the multiple specifications under the respective tab.
Note
If you want to copy the standard specifications for the characteristic using the reference to a characteristic, set the corresponding indicator. The system then displays the standard specifications. If the reference indicator is set, the standard specifications are always valid for the multiple specification object. The standard specifications are also used in inspection processing as the basis for the valuation of the multiple specification.
