QM "Origin of Results Data" while results recording

[Former Member]

Hello there,

We wish to record few characteristics value directly in the batch classification and wish the same to be copied in the associated inspection lot MIC.

In the results recording (QE01), Record Results : Characteristics Single Screen, there is a ResDatOrigin field. According to the documentation, the results data origin is the source from where the results are copied. One of the option contained there is Batch Valuation.

We wish to use the Batch Valuation option to meet our requirements. If you can share any alternate way to achieve the results copying to inspection lot characteristics from batch characteristics, that will be great as well.

Thanks a lot in advance. Please do share whatever gems you have. Highly appreciated.

Regards,

Kundan Kumar

PS: One of the statements contained in the help is: They (Results Data Origin) are for information purposes only and have no controlling function.

if you want this to be achived then yiu need to enter the data in batch inadvance so that insp lot will take this data from batch.

You need to create a MIC from inspection charectrostics with copy model.

Hi Rajesh,

Tried the same. No success. Anything specific which is missing. Have you used the results copying from batch to inspection lot results recording before? Please do give me your experience about the usefulness of the solution and the scenario in which you used it.

Hi,

The process of Updating the characteristics is like this, in material master if you would have set inspection type (01) do PO>MIGO>stock gets posted in Quality> Result Rec>UD & Stock posting in Unrestricted.

Now for the Master Insp Char which you are doing Result rec, these values should get automatically posted in the batch class characteristcs of the material in MSC2N. This is possible. HOW?

Create Batch class Characteriscts, create MIC and assign these Batch class characteristics in the MIC. Follow : PO>MIGO>stock gets posted in Quality> Result Rec>UD & Stock posting in Unrestricted.

System will automatically update the MIC values in MSC2N of the material.

Hope this is clear.

Hi

The procedure will be like this:

1,You create batch chars & assign the class with class type 022 or 023 depending upon your batch level.

2. Assign this class to material in classification view.

3, while creating MIC ,in the initial screen itself assign the batch char to MIC( if you do this some the control indicators will inherit from batch char which you can not change. yopu should be prepared for this).

4.you haver to make following settings in IMG.

a) In the batch management under step batch classificationor batch valuation( not remebered properly) for Movement type 101 " batch classifcation fore ground for all batches. This will allow you to record the charactristic values while you make GR.

b)Under QM Plant settings in one of the tab youfind Check box" bacth classification w/o material specification". pl. tick this box.

With this set up you record the results for the rest of the chars & make UD.

Your batch will be classified & you will achieve your requirement.

Try this.

Hello,

I wish the reverse to happen. Data already recorded in batch characteristics should flow back to the inspection lot at the time of results recording.

Can you explain the business need for this? This is a highly unusal request and SAP is not designed to copy results from the batch to the inspection lot.

Under GLP you really want the inspection lot to reflect tests that are actually performed. In your case that wouldn't be true.

You can default values onto the batches from classification with no problem. So those values will already be there. But why bother copying them into an inspection lot now? Is there a value that is providing?

The attributes you cite in your posting are exactly what SAP describes in the help. They are for information only and have no affect in SAP. Nothing in SAP sets these, and nothing in SAP looks at these. Clients have set these using their own custom programs when they do certain things to report in data such as interfacing to instruments, interpolation of data points, filling in data on skip characteristics, etc..

Hi Craig,

Yes, we are not in GLP environment.

We wish to keep our data entry options simplified and hence the request. There are a number of inspection parameters, along with batch parameters, which are recorded at our production operations. We have an effective way of entering batch characteristics values by "Fast Entry of Characteristics Values" by IS-MILL. We do not wish to re-enter the same data in inspection lot again.

We wish the data in inspection lot to be copied from the batch characteristics. The QM inspector can optionally change the results, which will then be copied back into the batch characteristics.

This will allow us to do analysis on QM related parameters with appropriate controls and simplified data entry.

If development is the only answer, what will be the best way to go around for same. Which possible issues to keep eye upon.

Kundan
