The integration of the Quality planning component in the SAP system allows
quality planning tasks to be combined with those of other components such
as materials management, batch management, inventory management,
variant configuration and cost accounting.
This functional capability is used to constantly check the quality of the company’s
products. Therefore the inspection plans and characteristics are used. The inspection
process mainly consists of the following four steps:
• Inspection lot creation: in SAP QM, all quality inspections are based on inspection
lots. These can be triggered manually or automatically (e.g. at goods receipt from
a purchase order, at goods issue of a component, at a certain operation during
production, etc.). The lots contain specific information about the inspection size
(e.g. based on the sampling procedure), inspection characteristics and methods
from the inspection plan or material specification, etc.
Note:The system uses inspection lot origin and the inspection type to determine how an inspection lot will be
created and processed. The inspection lot origins are predefined by SAP in Customizing for Inspection Lot
Creation. You cannot define your own inspection lot origins.

The usage decision for an inspection lot confirms that all physical samples have been valuated and the
inspection has been completed. It also specifies whether the goods in the inspection lot have been accepted or
rejected for use. We can make the usage decision manually or the system can make the decision automatically.
