Create Inspection Plan - From External Source
Application component: Inspection Planning
App type: SAP GUI
Description:   You can copy characteristic data from EHS specifications to an inspection plan. There are several options for this:  You can create a new inspection plan for the specification and copy the characteristic data.  You can copy characteristics to a linked inspection plan.  You can create an inspection plan based on a copy template for the specification.  You can create a new link, that is, you create a new inspection plan for the specification.   In addition to the characteristic data, header data such as the assigned materials is also copied. 
Key features:   When you create an inspection plan or copy characteristic data to an inspection plan, the object type of the data source is a required entry. As selection criteria from the source, the system uses:  Specification  Rating   You can define other search criteria for additional data sources by using the BAdI BADI_QMIP_IP_MAINTAIN.  Once you have selected the data source and the search criteria, the screen for copying characteristic data appears.  If an inspection plan already exists for the selected specification, the entire structure of the inspection plan is displayed in the left-hand screen area, including material, operations, and characteristics. Characteristics for the source that have not yet been assigned are displayed in the right-hand screen area. Note  If an inspection plan already exists for the selected specification, but you want to create a new one, you can choose the  Create New Link pushbutton on the initial screen and create an additional inspection plan for the specification. This allows you to map plant dependencies.   If no inspection plan exists yet, the left-hand screen area is empty and you have the following options:  You can create an inspection plan. Choose   Create Inspection Plan .   A dialog box appears where you enter the header data and operation data for the inspection plan.  You can copy an inspection plan. Choose   Copy Inspection Plan .   A dialog box appears where you enter the inspection plan you want to copy. Note  By making an entry in the  Map/Plan Only in Plt field, you can control whether the material/plan assignment in the inspection plan is made for all possible plants or only for the selected plant.   If no plant is selected, the material/plan assignment is created for all plants for which a quality view exists.  If a plant is selected, the material/plan assignment is made only for this plant.    To assign a characteristic to an operation, select the operation and the characteristic and choose   Add Characteristic to Plan . You can also use drag and drop to move the characteristic to the operation. The inspection characteristics are displayed on the  Edit Characteristics tab page in an editable ALV grid control . You can add the necessary data for the inspection plan there. In a separate ALV grid control, you can edit the data for the dependent characteristic specifications.   You can check if the data is consistent by choosing   Consistency Check . The system automatically runs a consistency check when you save. If the data is not consistent, the system displays a message log in the lower screen area.  Note  Note the following logic when creating inspection plan data: Plan header   If the specification was created with a change number, the inspection plan header is created with the date that the specification was created. If the specification was created without a change number, the inspection plan header is created with the initial date from EH&S (01.01.0001).  Characteristic   If the specification property was created with a change number, the characteristic is created with the date that the specification was created. If the specification property was created without a change number, the characteristic is created with the current date.   Special Features of Qualitative Characteristics  Phrase sets can be assigned to EHS specifications. When you create inspection characteristics, the system converts:  Phrase sets to code groups  Phrases assigned to the phrase set to codes.   This happens automatically when you choose the pushbutton   Create Selected Set .   The system creates a selected set and creates all phrases that are assigned to the attribute as selected set codes with the valuation  Accepted . To define the codes with valuation  Rejected , a dialog box appears:   In the upper area you see the assigned codes for the selected set with the valuation  Accepted .   In the lower area you see all the codes from the code group that have not yet been assigned.  You select which codes with the valuation  Rejected are to be included in the selected set.   If you have specified EH&S environment parameters, a code will be proposed that you can always choose for the valuation  Rejected .    You can also select a different defect class. If a code is assigned to a selected set, it can no longer be deleted. Note  Note that no transport requests are created for catalog maintenance from this transaction.
