STO Inspection type 08

[former_member284149]

Stock transport orders are used to move materials from one plant to other plant. However, no inspection process is performed when inventory moved between plant to plant transfer using stock transfer orders.

Materials are activated with 08 inspection type to perform inspection processes with in plant. Therefore, removing 08 inspection type may not be possible from material master. When material is received using STO system creates inspection lot of type 08. Is there a way to avoid creating inspection lot when material is received from other plants ?

The option what I thought is to create a quality info record and set "No inspection" however, this option is not possible because there is no vendor in stock transport order process.

The other option is to create an dynamic modification rule and set up skips such that system never post stock in quality when goods receipt is performed for stock transfer order.

Please recommend if there is a way to avoid creating inspection lot of type 08 when goods receipt is performed for stock transfer order.

Thanks

Well there is one solution available for this

1.In OMJJ make a copy of mvt type 301 ( just an example : considering your material transfer takes palce through 301 mvt) say Z01.

In QCC3--->Inspection lot creation >inspection for goods mvt>Deactivate Quality Inspection for a Movement Type->for Z01 you can deactivate QM.

You haev to use only Z01 when you carry out STO.

This will not create Inspection lot for this mvt type.But when you do transfer from storage location to storage location say with 311 it will create inspection lot of 08 as per your requirement.

I hope this males sence............

You are correct. We can set the flag "QM active". If the whole company decides that none of the plants will need to do an incoming inspection if the material is from a sister plant, we are fine with disabling QM at movement type level. But, in our case, there is no such global decision. We did not want to make Client level setting based on the needs of one plant.

We came across same scenario. It is probably not possible to prevent the inspection lot from getting created, unless we fiddle with the user exit. But, we can remove the flag "Post to Insp. Stock" on the inspection type '08' to post the stock to unrestricted use.

This will satisfy the business need that the stock received via stock transport order will be posted to unrestricted use. At the same time, the user will still be able to use movement type 322 to transfer inventory to quality in case they find any issue with stock on hand (you might have to make the message M7 156 as warning message in your system).

These inspection lots can be closed via background jobs.

Hi Harikrishnan,

You can disable inspection specificatlly for STO material, in the OMJJ please set the QM insp not active for the GR indicator X.

Thus in even tough 08 is active for other purpose. you can disable it for STO. no need to use user exit.

Thanks and Regards,

Issue resolved by deactivating quality inspection for movement type 101 only for stock transport orders keeping movement type 101 QM active for other functions like production goods receipt and purchase order receipt.
