This process allows you to inspect the products received from external suppliers in a basic warehouse inbound process using basic warehouse management functionality seamless integrated with quality management in SAP S/4HANA. The process starts with the creation of a purchase order and an EWM inbound delivery. Upon arrival of the purchased goods, they are unloaded, packed, and the goods receipt is posted. By posting goods receipt, the system runs active inspection rules. The system creates an inspection lot for the inbound delivery items if they are inspection relevant.
Upon creation of the inspection lot the system updates the EWM inbound delivery by adding the inspection lot number to the document flow as well as the stock is posted to stock type quality inspection stock.
The warehouse worker triggers the creation of warehouse tasks to move the goods to the Quality Inspection Center for a physical inspection. The inspection lot is now available in the worklist of the quality technician. The technician inspects the delivered goods and records the inspection results. Based on these inspection results, the quality engineer makes a usage decision. The engineer can enter partial decisions for a partial quantity of this stock.
As a result of the quality inspection, you determine if the goods fulfill the quality standards for storage in the warehouse, or if they do not fulfill the standards, which moves them to the blocked stock area for further clarification. After the decision, handling units with either goods to be stored or goods to be moved to the blocked stock area are created in the system. The creation of warehouse tasks to move the handling units to the corresponding area in the warehouse are triggered automatically. The process ends with the confirmation of the warehouse tasks.
