1. Introduction
1.1 Document Objectives
The objective of this document is to provide configuration details of the SAP Quality Management module
implemented and to enable the application system administrator(s) / authorized users in maintaining the
system. It is recommended that not more than two key users be identified as the application system
administrators. It is also recommended that this document should be a controlled copy in the hands of
the target audience.
Neither this documentation nor any part of it may be copied or reproduced in any form or by any means
or translated into another language, without the prior consent of Modern Automotives Ltd.
1.2 Document Structure
This document is broadly divided into three main sections namely, the scope of implementation, the
proposed Organization Structure and the configuration details. The configuration details have been
broken down into following heads:
• Purpose
• IMG Menu Path/Transaction Code
• Description and Configuration Values
• Recommendations (If any)
1.3 Target Audience
The application system administrators who will be maintaining the Quality Management intend to use
this document. It may be noted that the document is consistent with the system settings on the date of
document (Date on the Title Page). It is the responsibility of the application system administrators to keep
this document updated and consistent with any further configuration done.

2. Maintain Setting at Plant Level
Use
This setup allowed you to change and supplement several central controlling functions at plant level.
The controlling functions relate to the planning and implementation of quality inspections; for technical
reasons they are collated in one table. The functions you want to use for quality inspections determine
which settings are relevant for your requirements.
Procedure
1. Access the transaction using the following navigation options:
IMG Menu SPRO -> Quality Management -> Basic Settings -> Maintain Settings at
Plant Level
Transaction Code SPRO
2. When QM module is to be implemented, plant level settings are needed to be maintained. Following
setting at plant level can be managed through this setting.
Ø Version control for Master Inspection characteristics and Inspection method,

Ø Plant level sampling procedure
Ø Code and selected set at plant level for valuation
Ø Automatic usage decision waiting time
Note:- Default settings are sufficient to do with QM Module. However important settings along with
the screenshots are explained below

3. Click on
4. Click New Entries to make a plant dependent settings

Basic Data
Update the Following fields
Field Description

Tick in this check box willassign version to
theInspection method automatically during
creationand change.

Insp.Lot creation Tab screen
5. No settings are to be done here.

Result recording Tab screen
6. No settings are to be done here. At plant level any specific selected set is to be used, that may be
mentioned here in Plant, Selected set, code and code group columns

InspLot completion Tab screen
7. To configure Automatic Usage Decision Waiting time may be mentioned. Once this time elapses,
Automatic UD will be done. Batch Valuation check box to be ticked, if batch updating is to be done
without material specification
General settings Tab screen
8. No settings are to be done here.

Visual Planning
We can define control keys that contain control indicators. These indicators control, for example, whether:
• A sampling procedure must be defined
• A characteristic is treated as a qualitative characteristic
• Upper and/or lower tolerance limits must be defined
One of these indicators controls whether the proposed settings for the other control indicators can be changed

Inspection Type-Specific Settings for Plant
Here we can maintain default UD code setting for plants
Impact of this configuration in Master Data / Transaction
Over all maintenance of the above will control,
Ø Automatic creation of versions for MIC during creation and change

Ø Selected set at plant level may be used during result recording
Ø Automatic usage time elapse duration may be mentioned here
Ø Control to update Batch classification while taking UD with or without material specification

3. Define catalog types
Use
A catalog is a grouping of codes that belong together content-wise with which qualitative subjects
written in text form can be encrypted in a form that can be processed automatically.
You use catalogs in Warranty Processing when you enter items for a version. Catalogs can be called in
the following functions: as a list of defect codes, of labor values (services) or of external
services (invoices for materials and labor values or expenses).
Procedure
1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
Transaction code SPRO
IMG menu IMG > Quality Management > QM Planning > Basic data >
Catalog > Define catalog types
2. Click to make new catalog. Screen shown as below.

3. Choose Save.
4. Choose Back.

4. Define Sample Type
Use
The sampling type defines the basic conditions for determining the sample size for each inspection
characteristic. A distinction is made between certain basic forms, such as:
* 100% inspection
* Fixed sample
* Percentage sample
* Sample according to the sampling scheme
Procedure
IMG menu IMG > Quality Management > QM Planning > Basic data > Sample,
SPC > Define sample determination
2. Make the Required entries:
Define your Sampling types

Assign the rule for determination
3. Choose Save.
4. Choose Back.

5. Rule for Sample Determination
Use
The sample determination rule is stored in the sampling procedure itself and not in the sampling type.
This means that the system has the highest degree of flexibility when it determines the sample sizes.
Make sure, however, that the system is able to check whether the parameters for the sampling type and
the sample determination rule are consistent. You must ensure that the function behind the sample
determination rule is compatible with the desired sampling type.
The system also contains sample determination rules that are active on a global level, and do not solely
affect the sampling procedure in the inspection characteristic. This occurs, for example, if you define a
100% inspection for all characteristics in the inspection setup of a material.
Procedure

SPC > Define sample determination
Select New Entries and Define Parameters as per Requirement.
2. Choose Save.
3. Choose Back.

6. Define Valuation Mode:
Use
The valuation mode, together with the sampling type, defines which parameters the system uses to
determine a sample size. The valuation mode specifies the rules for accepting and rejecting a
characteristic or sample (for example, attributive inspection on the basis of nonconforming units, variable
inspection according to s-method, and SPC inspection).
Procedure
SPC > Define valuation mode
2. Choose and Click on to Save.
3. Choose to go Back.

7. Modify Valuation rule
Use
The purpose of this step is to modify valuation rule
Procedure

IMG menu IMG > Quality Management > QM Planning/ Basic data > Sample,
SPC > Define valuation mode > Modify Valuation Rule

2. Choose Save.
3. Choose Back.

Use
The purpose of this step is to define a task list status
Procedure

IMG menu IMG > Quality Management > QM Planning > Inspection Planning >
General > Define Task list status
3. Choose Save.
4. Choose Back.

11. Inspection Type
Use
When an inspection lot is created, the system uses the inspection lot origin to determine how the
inspection lot will be processed. Depending on whether the inspection lot is created automatically or
manually, the system determines the inspection type as follows:
• When the system creates an inspection lot automatically, it determines the inspection type
automatically. For more information on how the system determines the inspection type in such
cases, see Inspection Type for Automatically Created Lots .
• When you create an inspection lot manually, you must first specify the inspection lot origin. If
more than one inspection type is active for a material in the material master, the system prompts
you to choose an inspection type.
Procedure
IMG menu IMG > Quality Management > Quality inspection > Inspection lot
creation > Maintain inspection types
2. To maintain new inspection type, Click on New Entries
3. Chose SAVE
4. Chose back
