u2022 The sample submission form will have details about supplier name, part no, part name, reason for submission including version & frequency for new part (version defines the Trial no e.g.T0,T1,T2 etc & frequency defines how many times modification has been carried out within the same version)

u2022 The record of sample submission will be maintained in sample submission record.

u2022 Fill in the sample inspection report with required details like supplier name, inspection report no, part no, drawing no, revision no/date, GRN no, part description, version/frequency etc.

u2022 Carry out inspection of the samples as per applicable standard / specification/drawing.

Dear Gajendra

1) Status profile determines in which stage you are. You can maintain like when the first material is purchased it will be a pilot lot, 2nd will the trail1, 3rd Bulk lot etc. So during each GR of the material system wll change the stages based on the UD for the pervious lot. check in BS02 for QM_P_001

This is the normal process done for vendor approval

2) Notification type can be any. You can have your own customised notification (copy of either F2 or Q2). the reason for this is that you can maintain the history of all the proceedings, and you can have approval system also

3)as you said you need a submission form , through notification you can get those printed.

Dear Gajendra

Here are my suggestion for mapping this flow

1) Maintain a QM procurement key in Material master which mandates material certificate

2) In quality info record there is functioanlity called as Supply relationship management. Make a status profile suiting to you requirement. There is one in standard already you can copy that and modify the same

3) Develop a form whereinall the detials required for sample submission form from the relevent tables

4) Let the activity of generation of new sample start with a notification. Create a notification type for this purpose

5) maintain inspection plan which consists of the relevant testing parameters

6) you can maintain approval of vendor and sample through UD , Quality infor recorf and notification

This is just overall view. You can check and let me know your doubts one by one
