Copy Inspection Results
Copy Inspection Results
Use
The copy inspection results function allows the automatic copying of characteristic values, for example, from inspection lots into an inspection lot. The copy inspection results function offers the following advantages:
It is less time-consuming than copying data manually. Errors are less likely to occur than if the data were copied manually. This complies with certain legal requirements, for example, in the pharmaceutical industry. It is possible both for quality managers and quality planners to trace the copying of the data in a log.
Integration
The copy inspection results function can be used in the following business processes:
Recurring inspections of batches When you create an inspection lot, you can search for a preceding inspection lot using the material, batch and, if necessary, the plant. Stability tests of samples You can search for the preceding inspection lot using the physical sample. Calibration inspections You can search for the preceding inspection lot using a piece of equipment or a functional location. Inspections at different times in the course of the production process You can copy the data from a preceding operation or inspection point for the inspection lot. Inspections of preliminary products in the process chain (father-child relationship) You can search for the source inspection lot using the bath where-used list.
Prerequisites
In Customizing for quality management under Make Settings for Copy of Inspection Results, you have specified for which results data origin a data transfer is to take place. In the framework of the quality inspection, you have planned (using a field in the detail data for the characteristic) the data transfer at characteristic level through the suitable results data origin in the inspection plan or in the material specification The status of the inspection lot must allow the business process Record Results. The sample calculation must be completed (status CALC).
Features
You can copy inspection results at inspection lot creation/processing and at results recording. The copy inspection results function cannot be called up as a separate transaction.
The values that are copied using this function serve as proposed values, which you can overwrite or transfer as required. In Customizing, you can control whether or not the status of the characteristics is automatically set to In Process or Completed after the data transfer. If the data transfer is successful, the results data origin is set to the value planned in Customizing under Settings for Copy Inspection Results Function. If the system could not transfer a value, the characteristic remains unchanged. Messages and information concerning the data transfer are automatically logged. You can call up this log in the inspection lot or in results recording. A log is generated for every data transfer. You can use Customizing settings and customer-specific enhancements to adapt the copy inspection results function to suit your business processes.
No new (that is, unplanned) characteristics or inspection points are created in the target inspection lot.
Special Features of the Copy Inspection Results Function at Inspection Lot Creation During manual or automatic creation of an inspection lot, you can transfer values for the characteristics into the inspection lot after sample calculation. Depending on your Customizing settings, the copy inspection results function is either executed automatically at the end of sample calculation, or you have to start it manually when you change the inspection lot. After a successful transfer of the data, the system sets the inspection lot status RREC. You can also set a user status if required. If the transfer after the sample calculation fails because the system could not find a source object, you can trigger the copying of inspection results when you are changing the inspection lot. The following Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) are available:
Selection of results data for copy inspection results function (QEC_SELECTION) Data mapping for copy inspection results function (QEC_MAPPING)
Data transfer during inspection lot processing is not possible for partial lots in sales and during inspection point processing. This does not apply to the following inspection lot origins: Plant Maintenance (14), Sample Management (15) and Stability Study (16). For recurring inspections, the system does not check how often an object has already been inspected. Therefore, you cannot define a maximum number of subsequent inspections. To do this, you can use customer-specific enhancements at inspection lot creation.
Special Features of the Copy Inspection Results Function at Results Recording When you access results recording, you can transfer data to the characteristics of the current operation or inspection point (not the whole inspection lot). You can start the copy inspection results function manually at any time.
The copy inspection results function is not available in process-oriented results recording, in function modules in the QM-IDI interface, or in BAPIs for the business object BUS2045.
Activities
To manually start the copy inspection results function, choose Edit -> Copy Inspection Results after sample calculation, when changing inspection lots, or in results recording. If you have set the indicator Immediate Log Output in Customizing, the transfer log for the data transfer is output and can be displayed immediately. To display the log, choose Extras Display Transfer Log.

1. It may ask you to activate a BADi, if it ask you so then go to SPRO---> Quality Management--->Environment--->Tools--->Communication with Quality Inspection Engines--->execute :- BAdI: Copying of Inspection Decisions for Externally Triggered Inspection and activate the Implementation that is obstructing you to go further (It is out of my memory but it must be "QEC_RESULT_COPY")
2. SPRO>IMG>QM>Quality Inspection>Make Settings for Inspection Results Here, Maintain Inspection type and Plant code. set "Control in Insp. Lot" as Manual and Automatic Data Transfer. Then While Creating or Changing Inspection plan, Select MICs and Click on "General Characteristic data". Under field origin results data" maintain " Previous Insp. Lot".
