Inspection Lot Creation after UD

[Former Member]

Dear PP/QM Masters,

I have question regarding inspection lot creation after UD for the same batch number.

There will be several GR during one shift for one SKU with the same batch number.

F.E. shift (6 am to 2 pm) at 7 there will be first GR of finished good. Inspection lot is automaticly created and QA at 9 will make UD for this lot. If production will made GR after that a new inspection lot will be created for the same production batch.

Is there any possibility to make only one inspection lot even if UD is taken.

Thanks and regards,

In the 04 inspection type in the field "control inspection lot" select "material/batch/storage location". This will onnly create a second inspection lot if one of those parameters changes.

Hello,

Entry "material/batch/storage location" is selectd and works all right with one exception:

If the inspection lot for the first partial goods receipt is released via a usage decision (inspection lot size drops to 0) then the next goods receipt for the same material/batch/storage/date creates another inspection lot. What should be done to suppress the new inspection lot?

Actually it applies to the situation in which the whole lot is released and the next GR comes. Inspection types 01 and 04 (process orders)

Regards.

Are you sure you haven't included the choice of material document item?

If you have it material/batch/storage location, you shouldn't get a second lot.

The entry I am using is indexed as "2" on the selection list, i.e. " material/batch/storage/date "

I guess what bothers me is that for your selection of "2" you include date. Our standard SAP system does not include date on that key choice. Just material/batch/storage location.

I re-tested one just to be sure. Created a new process order for 30. Reveived 15. Got an 04 inspection lot created. Processed the lot, posted out the 15 to unrestricted and made the UD with an Accept code.

Then I GR another 10. These went straight to unrestricted as I expected. Then I posted the final 5 in a 3rd GR. Same result.. straight to unresticited.

I'm not sure why your not seeing the same. Again, seeing that 'date' in your number # choice is bothersome. If some modified that to include the date of receipt and included the time stamp in that, then your going to get new inspection lots.

Are you sure they didn't post it to a different batch on the second or third posting. And of course, this does refer to the same process order.. correct? You not using three different process orders for this are you?
