Insp result not transferred to Batch classification in case of order status TECO

[former_member224727]

Hello,

Are you aware why SAP don't transferred an inspection result to batch characteristics (classification) in case of order status is TECO?

If order status is REL then do transfer result but not in case of TECO or CLSD status. Can we change this SAP behavior?

Our requirement is result should get transferred to batch classification even order is TECO.

Are you running the Auto usage decision program for 03 lots?

Transfer of resutls only happens during the UD or the valution of an inspection point.

Hi Craig,

I'm talking about 04 inspection type.

[former_member42743]

TECO status of an order (or an order status for that matter), has absolutely nothing to do with the transfer of results to the batch record.  Data from the 04 inspection lot will only be transferred when the UD is made for the lot or an inspection point.

Are you saying that a UD done after the TECO is set is preventing the results from transferring?  But a UD done before the TECO is set does transfer the results?

No Craig,

If production do TECO status to order before quality record an inspection result. So UD is done after the TECO status to order.

In our case we do transfer result to batch classification at the time of result recording of an inspection point.

So in above case when order status is TECO before result recording then results not getting transfered to batch classification. Hope you clear.

Do we have an option to change this behavior? We want to transfer result even order has TECO status.

Eric,

I ran a test to check this.

I created two new process orders for the exact same material.

No MIGO was done on either order.

I recorded results on both of them, valuated, locked and saved.

I TECO'ed the second order.

I made a UD on both inspection lots.

Both inspection lots transferred their data to their respective batches so the TECO status didn't seem to have any effect.

We don't use inspection points so I couldn't test that too easily here.

Are you doing a UD at all or just relying on the inspection point valuation to transfer the results?  Technically, if it works for the UD I'd expect it to work for the inspection point valuation as well.

We do UD, but since we have multiple inspection point on one inspection lot we overwrite inspection point value in batch classification. So we have to transfer result at time of insp point result recording instead UD.

I did a third test just to check and created an order (and subsequent insp lot).  Then before I did anything else I TECO'd the order.  Then I went and recorded inspection results and made the UD.  Results were still transferred to the batch.

So you might want to experiment with a material set up with no inspection points and one with inspection points.  Then you can determine if this is something directly related to the inspection points.

If it works for one, and not the other, you can assume then the inspection point programs are somehow interfering with the transfer.  At least that might help when you submit the issue to SAP!

What are your settings in config for the inspection point?  Since you are using this for an 04 lot and not an 03, your "no of insp. points for char. summariz." should be 0 and the "Last inspected sample is valid" should be ticked on.

Normally SAP can only behave one way for 04 inspection points so it shouldn't matter at all what those settings are. But maybe they somehow get taken into account because of the TECO.

Hi Eric Sun,

I believe, you are thinking of inspection type "04" linked to GR form ProdOrd. Please confirm.

If mandatory system setup is already there for transferring inspection results of MIC to batch classification, then you just need to follow the QM process for RR (to make MIC system status "5") and UD. Only after that the results will be migrated to batch classifications. Then you can set the order status "TECO" or "CLSD", as all linked / dependent process are complete in all respect.

I think this system behavior is pretty much standard and may not be possible to change, as you are expecting.

Thanks,

Yes Arjit, we are using 04 type. Do we have any option to modify system behavior here? So even it update batch classification value after TECO status..

Hi Eric,

I am not very sure if that could be feasible option in SAP. I believe the best practice (...as explained above...) should be adhered to, in order to have a stable system.

Thanks,

Hi Eric,

Please let us know which inspection type, you are using.
