How to manage quality inspection specifications at inbound batch level for different customers?

Dear gurus,

Maybe you could help. Below a short summary of my current concern:

We receive raw material 1 that we send to QM for inspection. The specifications are defined but may vary per customer. Ie: herbicide acceptance level < 10 mg/kg for customer A, B,C and D but only < 5 for customer E.

Scenario 1: At inspection time, material 1 ( batch 11) passed with 7 mg/kg because accepted by many of our customers. This raw material batch is totally handled manually when starting the production to avoid to use it for finish good to customer E.

Scenario 2: At inspection time, material 1 (batch 12) passed with 4 mg/kg because accepted by all our customers. This raw material batch is totally handles manually when starting the production to have it used only for production of finish good to customer E.

How could we avoid this manual practice and have the correct batch selection at production level automatically? Is there any function we can use in SAP?

I read about active ingredient but not sure this is the solution for the described issue.

Thank you.

Sandra

Hello,

You can use the functionality of Material Quantity Calculation  in process order.

Please refer this useful SAP help link for active ingredient potency in material quantity calculation,
