customer inf record control inspection lot creation

[Former Member]

Hi all,

There is this section in SAP that said:

Using customer Info record for a customer/material combination, you can specify whether or not an inspection lot is created before the goods are shipped or after the goods are shipped

The u201Cbefore the goods are shippedu201D u2026 does it means an inspection lot is created AFTER a Delivery Order is created in SD component and BEFORE a Goods Issue?

Likewise, the u201Cafter the goods are shippedu201D, does it means an inspection lot is created AFTER a Delivery Order AND Goods Issue have taken place?

Thanks,

YY

Dear Yong

Using Customer info record you can do delivery inspeciton at any one of the 3 stages

1) Before delivery - Delivery inspection has to be completed for doing the PGI of the delivery document. In this inspection lot is created when Delivery document is saved. PGI is not allowed before the clearance of the lot

2) After delivery - This is after PGI is taken place then the inspection lot is created

3) at customer site - this is when the material reaches the customer

Option 1 has a better control on the system than the option 2 & 3
