QM inspection at various quality gates during production

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We need clarification on how to plan inspection during production at various stages.

1. How to trigger and use inspection point planning at various inspection stages??

2. How will the characteristic be activated, processed and closed at various inspection stages??

3. How to define different characteristic at different inspection stages?

4. Will a single inspection lot be generated for entire production of a machine or separate lot will be generated at all the inspection stages??

If possible, please provide the process flow.

Thanks & Regards,

Ritesh

First questions

1. How to trigger and use inspection point planning at various inspection stages??

.. QCC0 > Quality Planning > Inspection Planning > General > Define Identifier for Inspection Points

2. How will the characteristic be activated, processed and closed at various inspection stages??

.. When user define new inspection point at result recording, system activates the characteristics automatically based on inspection plan.

3. How to define different characteristic at different inspection stages?

.. Not possible with inspection point function in SAP standard

.. You have to define all characteristics at inspection plan or use add characteristic function at result recording.

4. Will a single inspection lot be generated for entire production of a machine or separate lot will be generated at all the inspection stages??

.. It depends on production order process because inspection lot for production is generated based on production order.

Second questions

1. How can we define partial inspection points within production processes?

.. QCC0 > Quality Planning > Inspection Planning > General > Define Identifier for Inspection Points

2. Process to activate and process characteristics at every inspection points?

.. Yes

3. Is it possible to allot score against those characteristics during inspection?

.. Allocation is not possible, only add is possible.

4. How is partial check points processed and closed?

.. You can define it in operation header detail of inspection plan.

5. Is defect recording done at every inspection point or at the end?

.. Every inspection point

5. How to summarize the result and close the inspection lot finally??

.. System summarize the result automatically when you execute usage decision transaction.

HI Ritesh,

All the points which u have mentioned ar possible only the thing u need to configure it accordingly,

U have 4 Gates, so designed your own inspection point having following key fileds like:

Copy inspection point 100 and developed ZG0 for ur purpose point of view.

Key Field 1 - Gate No.

Date

Time

I you want that after first inspection point measurement u need directly the 4th or 5th than it is possible to skip the inspection point (Partial Measurement of inspection point)

Defect recording at any time in any of the inspection point is possible u need to activate the defect recording indicator at ur MIC in ur quality plan.

All things are possible u need to check ur requirement on dev. go step by step.

Hello Mr Shailendra,

Thanks a lot for your help.

We have started configuring the process in Dev as per your guidance.

Please clarify few doubts

As you said to copy inspection point - 100 and create ZG0. As you are aware we have 4 Quality gates(QG). Do we have to create 4 inspection points and assign them in routing during production or just one in inspection plan ??

At what stage partial lot will be generated or which process will trigger the generation of partial inspection lot??

Do we have to define all the characteristics of 4 QGs in the inspection plan or we need to define them in routing for sub assembly??

Reply is awaited.

Thanks & Regards,

hi dear,

U need to create only one Inspection point and assigned it in your Master recipe.

MIC will be assigned in your Master Recepie it self against each operation.

When u create ur PP order inspection lot will be their in QA32 with exact lot qty., now when u go for RR, system ask u for all those operations, now one by one u select ur operation and feed the QC data in it.

In your master Recipe, operation description may be like this ,

0010 - Gate -1 Production

0020 - Gate-2 Production

it may have different work center also for cost capturing. if u have 4 gates than 4 work center for it.

Hope this will clear to you

Hi All,

Please clarify my doubt on Quality inspection during production.

We are using inspection type - "04 - Goods receipt inspection from production" for inspection during production.

Once after inspection if we reject a sub assembly for rework and move the part to block stock, we raise a notification to the concern department.

Now after production does a rework, how can we receive the sub assembly back to unrestricted used through Quality route and reflect the same in my notification.

If there is some other standard process of inspection during production and rework then please throw some light on it.

Thanks & Regds,

hi,

The purpose of in-porcess inspection during production is to record the various levels and defects against the production.

Follow few steps:

a) Activate 03 inspection type against Material in MM02.

b) Create MIC which u need to inspec against the Material during production Via QS21.

c) Create sampling procedure via QDV1 and remember it should be with Freely defined inspection point Sampling Procedure.

d) Now going to create Quality plan via QP01, assign usage as 1 and inpection point 100 in header level, move on to operation tab assign Workcenter like QC lab etc.( if not than create it). Assign MIC , sampling procedure and ranges if it is there and save ur quality plan.

e) Now, Excute PP cycle (I not mentioning here the steps).

f) For RR, goto QE71 and select the operation of particular stage and excute it

g) Its tabular RR Screen so its very easy and lock ur results.

stage is nothing but the operation defined in Master Recipe in PP like

0010 Stage1 Operation

0020 satge 2 operation .......etc.

during RR u select and reocrd the results.

Hello Mr Guru,

Thanks a lot for your guidance.

Our scenario is we have 4 quality gates in production process. We have different inspection check list for every gate, which is also not fixed and is decided at the time of inspection.

1. How can we define partial inspection points within production processes?

2. Process to activate and process characteristics at every inspection points?

3. Is it possible to allot score against those characteristics during inspection?

4. How is partial check points processed and closed?

5. Is defect recording done at every inspection point or at the end?

5. How to summarize the result and close the inspection lot finally??

Please help, we will be very grateful.

Thanks & Regards,

Ritesh

Dear !!

Inspection will done for the Material and in the production process in order to overcome defects

incoming will be doen for material inspection

inprocess means for Production Prorcess Inspection During manufacturing

and final will at End product inspection taking all these Consideration we will map in sap

1. Before Creating Inspectiobn Type We need To decide Which Material Type We are Doing for RM or SFG or Fg

2.According to that We will assign the Inpsection set up keys

3. after Inspection set up is done We will Go for master Inspection Characteristcs we need to assign the values for this

4. These values is asigned in A Quality Plan Accoring

5. According this plan we will do the Inspection

7. We will Record the Results Based on the Lot size

T-codes

1. MIC - QS21

2.Quality Plan QP01

3. CR01 to create Quality Work Center with control Key QM01

4.Usage desicion Qa32

5. QE51N results recording

6.QA11 Inspection Lot 321 mvt type we will rciev this goods to Unrestricted

With Regards
