SAP QMQuality Management | Quality Management Module deals with all traditional functions of quality in an organization. The integration of the QM application component in the SAP system allows quality management tasks to be combined with those in other applications (such as materials management, production, sales and distribution and c accounting).Features SSS! The QM application component supports tasks associated with quality planning, quality inspection and quality control. In addition, it controls the creation of quality certificates and manages problems with the help of quality notifications. The following components are available in QM: + Basic data (for example, material master, catalogs, inspection characteristics, inspection methods and sampling procedures). + Inspection planning (inspection plans, reference operation sets, material specifications). + QMin procurement. + QMinsales and distribution * Inspection lot processing (inspection lot creation and inspection lot completion) + Results recording * Defects recording + Sample management + Quality Information System + Dynamic modification of the inspection scope + Quality certificates + Quality notifications + Test equipment managementQuality Inspection Process Delivery Production Order Material Material Vendor Quantity, Inspection Plan / Routing _ Quantity > Inspection instructions.

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. Quality inspection covers the following functions: * Master data management (material master, catalogs, selected sets, master inspection characteristics, class characteristics, inspection methods, sampling procedures, sampling schemes, dynamic modification rules, sample-drawing procedures, QM work centers). + Inspection planning (inspection plans, reference 9, specifications).Quality Inspection ————— 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 can be triggered at a number of inspection origins: 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.9. based on the sampling procedure), inspection characteristics and Methods from the inspection plan or material specification, etc. Results Recording: After inspecting the products, the quantitative (e.g. width/height of a product) and/or qualitative (e.g. color of the product) results of the predefined characteristics can be directly recorded in the inspection lot. Defects recording: Defects can be recorded additional to the results recording. These defects are also referenced to an inspection lot and contain information about any attribute of a Material/product/process that deviates from the defined characteristics, The defect recording can be based on standardized codes that can be taken from the predefined inspection catalogs. Inspection lot completion: A completion of the inspection lot is necessi to finally decide about the usage of a material. Depending on the us performed (e.g. to unrestricted-use stock, blocked stock, scrap, et influences the quality level and the quality score of a material orCreation of Inspection Plan Create a inspection - QPO1 (Transaction code) Enter the material and Plant <—— _ details xO" eesSoul == Enter the mandatory details in a screen, click on Task listTask Details Enter the Task info and Lot size of the Materials and click on operationsOperation overview : = Control Key and work center, click on save.Inspection Lot Creation In the Quality Management (QM) component, process quality inspections on the basis of Inspection lots. If you want to inspect a specific quantity of a material or a piece of equipment, an inspection lot must be created in the system. We can create the inspection lots automatically or manually and how you use the inspection lots to process different types of inspections.

Quality notifications consist of basic header data such as material, reference documents, batch numbers, etc. and detailed information about the problem/deviation. Additionally to that, tasks and activities can be tracked to support an internal CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Actions) process. Notifications can e.g. be used for: * complaint against a vendor * internal problems (material error, etc.) * complaint from a customerNotification ScreenNotification screen (Contd..)

They are mostly used during the collaboration with suppliers or subcontractors (incoming certificates) to document the quality standards of incoming goods or when acting as a supplier, to document the company’s quality standards themselves (outgoing certificates). Quality certificates can guarantee: * the following of certain manufacturing / quality processes + the execution of predefined inspections. These can be either defined by norms (e.g. GMP: Good Manufacturing Processes), law, customers, ... * defect-free inspection results for a delivery, assigned to the quality certificateTo create Certificate use QC51 (Transaction code) Quality Certificate ‘See Uae ENN oR oe Enter the Certificate code and we Se opress EnterQuality Certificate contd. - You can Navigate any above screens, click on the respective — Tabs ~ S We can Track the Certificate status — iia detailsSAP Reports * Reports are collection of records that are helpful for arriving at important decisions. + Reports can be filtered based on requirements parameters.
