Hi Senthil,

In the Quality Management (QM) component, you can inspect either based on an inspection plan, or (with certain limitations) based on material specifications that are valid on a company-wide basis.

In such an inspection, the predefined values in the material specification serve as the inspection specifications. In contrast to the inspection plan, the material specification is a specification that you can use for all plants, that is easier to maintain, and that can replace or supplement a plant-specific inspection plan.

The inspection are take place by two ways.

1. You pick some material from the inspection lot quantity as sample, test it as per the specifications and release it against the samples. In this case sap provides the Inspection plan (task list) functionality.

2. You don't pick any samples, but just observes the inspection quantity and test it in this way, the scenario is captured through material specification.

In STD SAP terminology,,,,

Pls revert if further inputs required!!!

Hi senthil,

Material specification is client inspection specifications.supports only MICs of complete copy model and reference characteristics.Does not support Dynamic modificaiton rule.If the client has specification same irrespective of the plant then we shall go for MS.
