plant. Under the tab key Inspection Control in Q-Info Record, you would find vendor
source Inspection and under that select the inspection type desired for source
inspection (say 01,0101) and give the lead time required to perform the inspection in
days (say 10 days).
If you do not want to trigger an inspection lot @ GR for a source Inspection lot then
check the box (Source Insp. No Gr).
Ensure that the inspection type selected @ source inspection is activated in the
Material Master Record for the chosen material in the Quality Management View.
To trigger the lot manually you need to have some open purchase orders for the
material/plant/vendor. Go to transaction QI07 and give the material code, vendor,
plant and opening period.
When you execute the transaction you would find open purchase orders for the given
input data. Select the Purchase Order you wish to perform Source Iinspection and
choose Create Inspection Lot.
Source Inspection(SI): Well, you need to understand the concept and use of Source
Inspection. The inspection lots created using this are not stock relevant as the
material is not inward thru GR at the point when these lots are triggered. Hence the
UD will not have a stock posting tab and if you want a stock posting tab then it
becomes normal inspection (01). Hope you understand the difference, also after
results record & UD if you decide not to have a inspection lot triggered @ GR then
you need to update it in the Q-Info record. The settings for this scenario are already
given below.
2) Inspection type (01,0101) can be activated @ the same time.In addition to this you
can have a preferred indicator set for the inspection type you want to be selected
when you perform goods receipt.
This check box is available in the inspection type set up in the Material master. If you
do not check the preferred inspection type then the variant 01 for lot origins 01 is
given preference.
If you want an inspection type 0101 to be triggered @ SI then you need to define this
in the Q-Info record.
This would trigger the lot and then it is QE01 & QA11
