QM cycle for Process orders

[former_member1061582]

Hello Gurus,

I have to implement following sequence control for process order ,Please guide how it can be done with least cutom developments.

Is there a Qc mechanism which will refer to previous Batch and check its QC parameters for on line inspection?? .

OR,...Is there any Process order Mechanism that checks previous Process order QC parameters for on line inspection?? .

Scenario----Here a Unique Batch no is created for every Process order .

(example:  Process order # 100001...5 qty....Batch no B1:....&.Process order # 100002...1 qty....Batch no B2:.....&.Process order # 100003...8 qty....Batch no B3:.....)

Process order sequenece

(1)First Process order for the First batch of a  Material -----------Inprocess Quality control is mandatory for Process order

(2)2nd  Process order for the second batch of a metarial to 11th process order for the 11th  batch of material in process -------QC not required.

(3)12th Process order for the12th Batch of Material ,------- Inprocess Quality control is mandatory for Process order

(4) 13th Process order to 22nd Process order (and its resp Batches),-------- in process -QC not required

(5) 23rd  Proces order will be the Last batch of this sequence--------------- for which QC run is mandatory. This Cycle closed

Next batch --(1) to (5) will repeat.

**********************************

QUESTION:???

How to control this sequence without much Z developments , keeping in mind there should be no scope for Manual errors.

This sounds like dynamic modification. 

The rule is set up to cause inspection for a batch based on the number of previous batches inspected and pass/failed.

Some examples:

     Inspect every 3rd batch.

     Inspect 5 in a row, then every other batch, if after ten more batches they all pass, they test every 5th batch. If one fails, start the sequence over again.

     Inspect one batch every year.

You can make these rules very complicated and you can set it up for one material, a group of materials, etc..

Hello Guru,

Thanks for the suggestion.

The issue is that Business is not able to arrive at a Sequence or Rule .So wanted to know if there is any option for Random Qc cycles.  However your point noted, will check what best could be done keeping in mind your valuable suggestion /

No. SAP doesn't really do random well.  🙂

I guess you could set the system up to create an inspection lot each and every time and then use a user exit like

QPL10001

QM: Inspection lot creation - editing work area on creation

to suppress the inspection lot creation based on a random number generator along with other whatever logic or parameters you wanted to take into account.

However, if you review most standards organizations (ISO, MiLSPEC, etc), I don't think you'll find a random number generator being acceptable as a quality process.

There are specific, established standards around how to sample and test incoming raw materials provided by several different organizations.
