QM: Goods Receipt Inspection Vs

Source Inspection in Procurement

Applies to:

ERP 4.6C (or) later Version to ECC

Quality Management (QM) and Material Management (MM) – Goods Receipt Inspection Vs Source Inspection in Procurement

Summary

Source inspections are performed upon request and with the participation of the customer generally in supplier’s place. A source inspection can be executed by the receiver of the goods, the supplier in the presence of the receiver or by third party.

Goods receipt inspections are performed after receiving the goods at customer’s place. Till the inspection process completes the goods will be under inspection stock. Once the inspection process completes and approves, the goods is moved to unrestricted stock.

The system can automatically create an inspection lot when a goods receipt is posted in the system. A goods receipt can be posted internally (for example, from production to the warehouse) or from an external source (for example, from a vendor).

In SAP Quality Management, Goods Receipt Inspection and Source Inspection for procurement have the below features:

Inspection Lots are created either before goods receipt or after goods receipt.

While processing the inspection lots the material will be in Quality inspection stock.

After inspection lots accepted, the material is posted to unrestricted use

Source inspection lots can be created using batch jobs

Introduction to Quality Inspection

In Quality Management, the quality inspection is processed on the basis of inspection lots. Quality Inspection determines whether the required product meets the defined quality requirements. In quality inspection, we inspect a product using predefined specifications. This inspection can be carried out at customers place (goods receipt inspection) or at vendors place (source inspection) based on the requirements.

Some of the important differences between Goods Receipt Inspection and Source Inspection are described below:

Goods Receipt Inspection Source Inspection

Performed after receiving the goods Performed before receiving the goods

Performed at receivers/customers place Performed generally at suppliers place with customers participation

Goods receipt for purchase order triggers the inspection lot creation

Quality info record triggers the inspection lot creation. To trigger the lot open purchase order required for the Material, Plant and vendor combination

Inspection lot is created after receiving the goods Inspection lot created before receiving the goods based on the lead time in Quality Info record. There is also option to create inspection lot after goods receipt (Quality info record)

Basic Configurations for Quality Inspection in Procurement:

In Order to implement the Quality Inspection, the basic settings at plant level need to be maintained.

Maintain Settings at plant level

Manu Path: SPRO > Quality Management>Basic Settings>Maintain settings at plant level

At plant level we maintain control functions, Basic Data like Master inspection characteristics with history, Insp lot creation, Results recording, Inspection lot completion, and general settings

Define control key in procurement:

Manu Path: SPRO > Quality Management>QM in Logistics>QM in procurement>Define control keys

This control key is used to maintain different conditions in procurement (ex: vendor release required, quality certificate required along with the goods, document control etc.)

In this example we are using the control key for vendor release. It means the supply relationship must be released. (Supply relationship in procurement is Vendor Master record and quality info record)

Maintain Inspection Types

Manu Path: SPRO > Quality Management>Quality Inspection>Inspection Lot Creation>Maintain Inspection Types

Inspection type 01 is for Goods receipt for Purchase orders which is predefined.

An Inspection type is assigned to an inspection lot origin. We can assign more than one inspection type to a single inspection lot origin.
