QM: Variants for Completing Inspection Points

Description

As of Release 4.0A, you can control the valuation screen for an inspection point. In operation data of the task list, you can plan a variant for completing inspection points.
The system supports four variants for completing inspection points:

• Variant " "
  You must confirm quantities and valuate the inspection point. The confirmation indicator (partial confirmation, final confirmation or no confirmation) for the order operation are proposed on the basis of the Customizing settings for inspection point:

• Variant "1"
  You must confirm quantities and valuate the inspection point. The system proposes "No confirmation." (You can use this variant if you make the confirmation using the corresponding transaction for the inspection point.)
  

• Variant "2"
  With this variant, you only valuate the inspection point.
  

• Variant "3"
  The dialog box for valuating the inspection point is not displayed. The system valuates the inspection point automatically. The system retrieves the valuation from table TQ79.

Change system parameters in customizing

Previously, you could only store one proposed value for the valuation of an inspection point at the plant level in Customizing. In Release 4.0A, you can store a proposed value for an acceptance and a proposed value for a rejection at the inspection point level.

• Inspection points were used for inspections during production in Release 3.0. As of Release 4.0A, you can also use inspection points to identify the physical samples in results recording.
  For the maintenance task list and the inspection plan with physical samples, variant 2 is the default value. You cannot use variant ' ' and variant 1 for these task list types. For all other task list types, variant ' ' is the default value.
  

• If you process partial lots in an inspection during production and variant 3 (automatic inspection point valuation) is stored in the operation data, the system still displays the dialog box for the inspection point valuation. This is so you can assign the partial lots.
  

• If you have selected the variant for an automatic inspection point valuation, you can still call up the dialog box to valuate the inspection point manually using a corresponding function key.
