In the
Quality Management
(QM) component, you process quality inspections on the basis of
inspection lots
. If you want to inspect a specific quantity of a material or a piece of equipment, an inspection lot must be created in the system. The documentation describes how inspection lots are created automatically or manually and how you use the inspection lots to process different types of inspections. Once an inspection lot has been created, you can inspect the goods, record the inspection results or defects, and complete the inspection with a usage decision.
You should implement the
Inspection Lot Creation
component if you want to create inspection lots in the system. You must also implement the following additional QM components to be able to plan, process, and complete the inspections:
Basic Data
(QM-PT-BD)
Inspection Planning
(QM-PT-IP)
Results Recording
(QM-IM-RR)
Defects Recording
(QM-IM-RR-DEF)
Inspection Lot Completion
(QM-IM-UD)
You must also implement one or more of the following components in the logistics supply chain, depending on your requirements for inspection lot processing:
