Hello All,
Need some advice regarding the following scenario:
Materials are produced in large batches at the supplier site.Client requires multiple shipments to be pulled in at an accelerated
rate and would like to avoid long inspection delays.
Is there a way to complete an initial inspection for a given supplier lot and if passed then we can skip inspection for all further
shipments of that speicific suppier lot receipts.
Can we manage this and if so how? Manual Automatic ?
Thanks

Actually, that won't work for supplier batches. That control inspec lot setting is looking at SAP batch numbers, not vendor batch numbers.
There is nothing standard in SAP that can deal with this. You have to utilize an enhancement.
I suggest looking at user exit QAAT0001. There you have access to set/unset a flag to suppress the inspection lot. The enhancement can search MCH1 table for the same vendor batch number and if it exists, check the UD on the appropriate inspection lot and if a pass, then suppress the inspection lot and post the material right to unrestricted. Your actual logic needs to take into account several scenarios though.. was it inspected more than once. what if there are some passes and some rejects, what if the batch came in on a stock transport order from another plant, what if it's a material you buy and directly sell and you get a return inspection lot, what if the last receipt/inspection was over a year ago? Two years? Three years? etc. etc...
This development could however save a lot of $$$ in preventing unneeded analysis.

Thanks All,
Was thinking on creating a source inspection lot for PO qty.for specific vendor lot, which eventually
skip all the receipts from that order-vendor lot , the only issue here is compliance to the corporate Q
policy in terms number of acceptance and rejections, any additonal suggestions ?
Thanks
