Hi,

Can you explain me the uses of the following each control indicators:

explain me about sampling procedure, additive sample, SPC characteristic, destructve insp., summ recording, single result, no charac rec. classed recording, defect recording, required char, optionnal char, after accept, after rejection.

And also explain me about the following.

Dear Sunriser,

Let me try to explain these

  1. Charac. Attribute

R

If you set this indicator, the inspection characteristic is marked as an attributive characteristic, whose allowed values are defined as a selected set from catalog 1 (characteristic attributes).

Sampling procedure

R

If you set this indicator, a sampling procedure must be assigned to the characteristic in the task list. If you do not assign a sampling procedure to the inspection characteristic and you do not define specifications for the inspection scope on a higher level (in the inspection setup in the Quality Management view of the material master), a 100% inspection takes place.

Summarized Recording

R

If you set this indicator, only summarized values are confirmed for the inspection results of the characteristic after an inspection.

Additive Sample

C

If you set this indicator, in sample calculation, causes the size of the partial sample to be increased by the quantity required for this characteristic. If a partial sample is to be used for several characteristics, it contains the total sample quantity required for all characteristics. The system calculates the sample quantity for each characteristic. For a partial sample that is used for several characteristics, the system takes the largest determined sample quantity as the partial sample quantity.

SPC Characteristics

C

If you set this indicator, a control chart is run for this characteristic. If you set this indicator, you must also set the "Sampling procedure" indicator.
You must then enter an SPC criterion and a sampling procedure with a control chart type in the task list for the SPC characteristic.

Destructive Inspection

C

You set this indicator for inspection characteristics whose samples will be destroyed when you inspect the characteristics. When you make the usage decision, the system calculates the quantity of materials destroyed and makes a proposal for the stock posting To sample usage. The system takes all inspection characteristics into consideration corresponding to the actual sample size for which the indicator Destructive insp. Is set and for which inspection results have been recorded (up to the point of the calculation). This may include optional characteristics, skipped characteristics, long-term characteristics, and unplanned characteristics. For the stock posting, the system proposes only the part of the destroyed quantity that exceeds the amount already posted to sample usage

Recording the Number of Defects

C

If you set this indicator, you can enter the number of nonconforming units and the number of defects during results recording. If you do not set this indicator, you can enter the number of nonconforming units during results recording.

Recording

C

If you set this indicator, only summarized values are confirmed for the inspection results of the characteristic after an inspection.

Single Result

R

If you set this indicator, the inspection results for the inspection characteristic are recorded as single values (measured values, codes, etc.) after the inspection.

No Characteristics Recording

C

If you set this indicator, results cannot be recorded for the inspection characteristic after the inspection.

Classed Characteristics Recording

C

If you set this indicator, the inspection results for the inspection characteristic are recorded as classed values.

Defects Recording

O

If you set this indicator and an inspection characteristic is rejected during results recording, the function for recording defects for a characteristic is automatically called up. In this situation, a distinction must be made between the following cases:

Required Characteristic

R

If you set this indicator, the inspection characteristic must be inspected.
This means that you can only make a usage decision for the inspection lot after you have confirmed inspection results for this inspection characteristic.

Optional Characteristic

C

If you set this indicator, the inspection characteristic does not have to be inspected. You can choose whether to confirm an optional characteristic.

After Acceptance

C

If you set this indicator, this conditional inspection characteristic must be inspected, if the previous required characteristic in the operation was valuated with an "A" (accepted).

After Rejection

C

If you set this indicator, this conditional inspection characteristic must be inspected, if the previous required characteristic in the operation was valuated with an "R" (rejected).

Scope not Finished

C

If you set this indicator, the number of inspected units is defined by the user for results recording.
This number does not have to agree with the precalculated number of inspected units.

Fixed Scope

R

If you set this indicator, the number of inspected units is defined by the user for results recording.
This number does not have to agree with the precalculated number of inspected units.

Smaller Scope

C

If you set this indicator, the number of inspected units can be smaller than the precalculated number of units to be inspected for results recording.

Larger Scope

C

If you set this indicator, the number of inspected units can be greater than the precalculated number of units to be inspected for results recording.

No Documentation Required

C

If you set this indicator, no additional text must be entered as documentation for this characteristic during results recording.

Documentation if Rejected

R

If you set this indicator, additional text has to be entered as documentation only when the inspection characteristic has been rejected during results recording for this characteristic.

Documentation Required

C

If you set this indicator, additional text must always be entered to document the inspection results during results recording for this characteristic.

Long-Term Inspection

C

In a long-term inspection:---There can already be a usage decision for the inspected material during the long-term inspection.You can still record inspection results for long-term characteristics, once you have made the usage decision.The system sets a separate status in the inspection lot to identify the long-term inspection and it provides special worklists and workflow tasks for this purpose.

Scrap Share/Q-Score

C

If you set this indicator, the fraction of nonconforming units for this inspection characteristic is taken into account when the share of scrap is calculated in the inspection lot.

RR Change Docs

R

If you set this indicator, change documents are created for this characteristic when results are recorded based on characteristics.

Test-equi. Assignment

C

If you set this indicator, you can assign test equipment to the inspection characteristic in the task list. If you do not make an assignment, the system displays a warning message.

Print

R

If you set this indicator, the inspection characteristic is printed on the inspection instruction.

Do not print

C

you set this indicator, the inspection characteristic is not printed on the inspection instruction.

Do not print as Skip

C

If you set this indicator, the inspection characteristic is only printed on the inspection instruction, if no skip is planned for the inspection characteristic.

Hi, I would suggest you should try each one these  in to your test server for better understanding. That will only give you the clear picture about this.

For example, first create MIC with control indicator sampling procedure and single result recording. Then create another MIC using summarized result recording. Create manual inspection lots for testing.

You will notify the difference at the time of result recording in QA32. Similarly you can try scope fixed and scope not fixed options also.
