Question:
Dear All,
I'am working with SAP version 4.6C and i have the following problem with QM.
After a good receipt of 1000 PC, an inspection lot has been generated in QM with a sample size of 25 PC.
During the result recording, my "favorite" user has accepted the lot and has entered 25 PC to "sample usage" and 875 PC to "unrestricted use stock" instead of 975 PC !!!
Now, the inspection lot is considered has "completed" but i still have 100 PC in quality inspection stock and i can't find a way to tranfer them in unrestricted use stock.
Does one of you have a idea to do that ?
Thanks a lot.
Stéphane.
Answer:
QVM2 is made for this. Run this worklist and look for your lot. Select it and go in to the stock posting tab and post the material.
Shouldn't be a problem unless you've done something special in your system with user status or something.
You should normally always go back into the UD and post outstanding qty's. My guess is that your trying to use a worklist that only shows lots without UD's in some manner.

Answer:
Hello Craig,
Thanks a lot for your answer but i can't find my inspection lot in transaction QVM2.
If it can help, the system status of my inspection lot is :
X ICNC Insp. completion w/o confirm.
X UD Usage decision has been made
X CALC Sample calculated
X ICST Short-term insp. completed
X ICCO Inspection close completed
X SPRQ Quantity posting required
X SPCO Stock posting completed
X STUP Statistics updated
Regards,
Stéphane.
Answer:
Hello
From the Lot Status SPCO, it is clear that Stock Posting is completed for the lot. It is doubtful whether the System would have set this if pending quantities are there
Check the following:
Access the lot in Change UD mode (QA12)
Check the material documents generated out of UD. Check whether all the stock have been accounted for
Also check whether the System displays any quantity for posting
Do revert after checking
Answer:
Hello Manianz,
I have check my inspection lot :
Inspection lot quantity : 1.000 PC
Actual lot quantity : 900 PC
Sample size : 25 PC
postings : 0 PC
What do you mean with "Do revert after checking" ?
Is it possible to reset the Usage Decision ?
Regards,
Stéphane
Answer:
Hello
Kindly recheck the following
(1) You cannot reset the UD once it is done. You can only change the UD Code (and Valuation)
(2) Check whether the Actual quantity was changed
You can check it through the Material Documents (as indicated earlier)
(3) Also check the Change Documents / History for the Inspection Lot
Answer:
In QA13 check the stock posting log for the lot. It should show exactly what was posted out of the lot and where it went. Let us know what you see in there. See what is shown in the stock posting log. If you see "0" in the field "To be posted" then the lot is complete.

Answer:
Hai,
Out of 1000 nos, you have posted only 900 nos. (875 +25)
Please check in stock overview whether it shows the balance 100 nos in quality stock.
If 1000 nos are in unrestricted stock, even though you have posted only 900 nos. This could have happened because of the following settings in selection set for catalog 3.
In the selection set for acceptance ud code, there will be check box indicator called as stock screen background.
If this indicator is active,even if you do partial posting, the entire quantity will be posted to unrestricted stock.
Please check the above settings in your selection set for catalog 3

Answer:
Dear All,
First of all, i want to thank you again for your assistance.
1. Craig, here the answers to your mail :
In the stock posting log, i can see :
General data :
Inspection lot quantity : 1000 PC
Sample siez : 25 PC
In. samp.(StkUn) : 25 PC
Quantity posted :
Total : 900 PC
To unrestricted use : 875 PC
To scrap : 0 PC
To sample usage : 25 PC
To blocked stock : 0 PC
To new material : 0 PC
To reserves : 0 PC
Return delivery : 0 PC
And the last :
To be posted : 0 PC
2. Manianz, here the answer about "changes history" :
in the inspection lot, i've found an interesting "change record" :
Actual lot qty : Old value 1000 PC / New value 900 PC
Qty that must be posted : Old value 1000 PC / New value 900 PC
Doc. required for insp. lot : old value " " / New value "X"
Does that change has been made with transaction QA12 ?
I can't see any material document corresponding to that change and this 100 PC are still in quality inspection stock in transaction MMBE.
Stéphane
Answer:
Interesting.. it almost sounds like someone ran QAC1 and 'corrected' your inspection lot actual quantity. You should be be able to see this in the change records on the inspection lot. You might be able to 'correct' this again by using the same transaction.
If the QI stock is out of sync with QM inspection lots, you can try running an SAP provided program "QEVAC20" I think. You should be able to find this program in OSS. It was developed by OSS to correct such errors. It really should only be used as a last ditch attempt.

Answer:
Hello Craig,
I have look in the table CDHDR.
The change was made with transaction LI21 : Clear physical inventory difference in MM from WM.
I don't understand how it can be possible because i don't have any material document in MM corresponding to this inventory difference.
As you suggest me, I think i will have a look in OSS for the program "QEVAC20" .
I will tell you if it has work or not.
Thank you very much for your help.
Stéphane.

I think Craig is right. I had the same problem. Apply the oss note.

Answer:
It looks like someone from the WH cleared material in WM and it never carried through to the IM side. The correction program should take care of this for you.
But, longer term, you should investigate the procedures for writing off inventory and who/how it is too be done.
I'm not a WM specialist so you might need to get a WM person involved. You should make sure you have ONE primary way of writing of material and know exactly who is allowed to do it. As you've seen, incorrect procedures can raise havoc with your inventory.
