Dynamic modifications for supplier status , time and rejections.

[former_member1244710]

Dear QM Gurus ,

Just want to share a scenario with you and know your views and solution strategies on the same .

There is need of reduced sampling in which only a few characteristics are visible and availabel for result recording for the following conditions . This is clearly a case of dymanic modification .

1. Vendor has status certified .(it is a prefered vendor which is allowed reduced sampling and testing ).This certified status will be maintained in Q info record . All other vendors shouldhave full testing ( RR for all MICs of tha plan )

2. If a lot from certified vendor is rejected, next two lots should have full testing ( all MICs for RR)

3. Irrespective of any rejections ,the first lot after every two years has to be fully tested .

There is full testing for all the other types of vendors and all other cases .

Can you suggest a step by step procedure for config and master settings for the above dymanic modification ?

Full points to be awarded for complete and correct answer .

This is not easy. First, there is no time based criteria in SAP for recertifying your vendor. I.e. you cannot meet the two-year full-testing requirement with standard SAP. You also cannot use dynamic modification to change the mics being inspected. DMR is used to address whether or not testing is done, not the number of characteistics being done. I.e. it focuses on samples.

If you use DMR at the charcteristic level, it tracks each MIC individually, not as a group. To do so, you would have to use a 'controlling' MIC whereby all the other applicable MIC's are skipped or not based on that one MIC. So you could create a MIC like "All extra testing MIC's passed". The tech answers this yes/no and DMR adjust the DMR accordingly. Then all the other characteristics map to this one. That is standard but requires you to put the extra MIC in for the tech to answer.

What I would suggest is the following: Create a new 01 inspection type. "01CT for incoming inspection - certified". Give this new inspection type a different task list usage than your standard 01, say task list usage 501. I''ll assume your standard 01 inspection type uses task list usage of 5.

Create your standard plan, (i.e. all MIC's) with a usage of 5. (Group 15, coutner 01)

Create your certified plan (i.e. reduced # MIC's), with a usage of 501. (Group 15, counter 02)

Assign the material to Group 15, Counter 1. All vendors will be inspected with this plan.

Assign the certified vendor/material to both counters, 01, 02.

Use user exit QAAT0001 (Inspection type determination different from variant 01). First, exit the user exit if not an 01 inspection origin. Then have the exit perform a query to see if the vendor is certified. If not, use the standard 01 inspection type and exit the user exit with no change to the inspeciton type. If the vendor is certifed, do the following:

Do a query for inspection lots in the past two years for this vendor/material that used an 01 inspectoin type. If none are found, use inspection type 01. (mean no full inspection done in last two years). Then query for all 01 origin inspection lots for this material/vendor. If any are found, then check to see if either of the last two lots had a failed UD on it. If one of them did, it should also use inspection type 01. Otherwise, change the inspection type to 01CT

This solution would not use dynamic modification at all.

Hi,

Define DMR as below, assign the same into Inspection Plan and confirm.

Stage No Of Insp Max SKIP Dur New Stage Rejections New Insp Stage

10 Skip 9999 730 20 1 20

20 Full Testing 2 10 2 20

Hi,

Yes you can have this through dynamic modification rule. create a dynamic modfication rule like below and attach it to quality plan. But this will not check if the vendor is certified or not.

10 Skip 10 365 20 1 20

20 2 normal inspectio 2 10 1 20

If you want a different system for non certified vendor then you need to create 2 plans and assign it to the vandors in material assignment in QP01.

but this is manual
