| # Testing Combinations Use this session to define quality combinations which, generally speaking, consist of three parts: The module from which inspections originate The item or quality group that applies to the combination. The quality ID that applies to the combination. A single quality ID can be used for more than one quality combination. Note For an algorithm, all the characteristics representing the variables of the algorithm must be put in the same test group as the algorithm, otherwise the algorithm will not be generated for a quality ID. The validate standard test procedure option also validates: Whether the item is serialized. Whether any item in the quality group is serialized. If the above mentioned conditions are met, ERPLN checks whether the associated Standard Test Procedure test quantity is greater than 1. If the item or any item in the test group is associated with a test quantity of greater than 1, ERPLN prompts the user with this warning message: Item (Item code) is serialized and the Test Quantity is greater than one. Test data will be applied to all the serialized items in the test quantity. Related topics Standard test procedure and testing combinations Origin An integrated module or package to which an (inspection) order is related. Quality inspections are executed within a module or package. This field is used to select one of the implemented modules or packages of LN. Allowed values Origin of Inspection Note You can maintain the implemented modules and packages in the Quality Management Parameters (qmptc0100m000) session. Combination Settings Quality Group A group of items with similar quality characteristics. The data defined for the quality group are used as defaults for all items of that quality group. Quality Group The Quality Group and all the items in it, for which a certain quality inspection is desired. Item In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants. You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The following are examples of nonphysical items: Cost items (for example, electricity) Service items Subcontracting services List items (menus/options) Note Standard items are expressed in an item code. Segmented items consist of a project code segment and an item base segment (the item code of the customized item). The segments that an item can consist of are defined in the Item Code Segmentation (tcibd0500m000) session. Note The quality combination of the item (defined in this session) overrules the quality combination of the quality group to which the item belongs. Related topics Using codes Item Description Displays the Item description. Business Partner buy-from business partner/ sold-to business partner Business Partner Displays the Business Partner's name and ID. E-Item Revision The version or revised version of an engineering item (E-item) or a revision-controlled item. Several revisions of an E-item can exist. Note Note: LN allows you to define sampling rules and testing combinations for specified E-Item Revision. Related topics Engineering Item Revision Description The description or name of the code. Order Specific Test Procedure If this check box is selected, you can execute the standard test procedure for a specified testing combination. Effectivity Unit The code that is linked to an end item for identification, and which can represent the deviation(s) from the standard end item. You can link an effectivity unit to manufactured items and purchased items. Note LN allows you to define sampling rules and testing combinations for specified Effectivity Unit. Related topics Effectivity units Description The description or name of the code. Inspection Settings QM Only Recommends This field is used to indicate what can be done with the inspection results. If this check box is selected, the inspection results are a recommendation for the user; the user can overwrite these results. If this check box is cleared, the inspection results are mandatory; the user cannot overwrite these results. In this case you cannot use destructive tests. Note This field overrules the value of the QM Only Recommends field in the Quality Management Parameters (qmptc0100m000) session. Blocking Method for Inspections The blocking method refers to the way in which production, purchase, or sales is stopped or controlled to do inspections. Note If the QM Only Recommends check box is cleared, this field cannot be used. Standard Test Procedure The code of the standard test procedure that must be maintained. Description The description or name of the code. Text Text Displays text related to quality combinations. Routing The routing combination to determine if inspection is required. Routing is specified only if inspection of the item is mandatory. Routing The description or name of the code. Operation The routing operation. Operation is specified only if inspection of the item is mandatory. Task The task which is executed during the operation. Task If there is only one task for this operation, you cannot enter a value in this field. From Warehouse The warehouse from which the item is transferred. To Warehouse The warehouse to which the item is transferred. Sub-Item Description Displays the sub-item description. Conformance Reporting If this check box is selected, conformance reporting field in the inspection order is enabled. The inspection order created is used for document checking. Note If this check box is selected, specifying the standard test procedure is optional. Inspection by Serials If this check box is selected, inspection for serialized items (for In and Not In Inventory) is performed by serials with Routing origin. If this check box is selected, inspection for serialized items is performed anonymously. Note This field is only enabled for Routing origin and if the QM Only Recommends field is not selected.
