QM for Procurement with Vendor Evaluation (127)

1 PurposeThis scenario deals with quality inspection activities during the procurement process.

A customer orders goods from specified vendor 300001. On goods receipt, an inspection lot is generated according to the defined material specification. A usage decision is then made as to whether to accept or reject the material, based on the inspection result (in this scenario, the material is rejected). Processes such as quality notification and vendor evaluation follow.

The scenario focuses on the following activities:

Goods Receipt based on Purchase Order

Inspection Defects Recording

Usage Decision after inspection

Quality Notification creation and completion

Goods Return to Vendor and Return Delivery Creation

Vendor Evaluation process

2 Prerequisites

2.1 Master Data and Organizational DataA range of indispensable master and organizational data was created in your ERP system in the implementation phase, such as the data that reflects the organizational structure of your company, as well as master data that suits its operational focus, for example, master data for materials, vendors, customers, and so on.

This master data usually consists of standardized SAP Best Practices default values and enables you to go through the process steps of this scenario.

You can test the scenario with other material, or organizational data for which you have created master data. To find out how to create master data, refer to the Master Data Procedures documentation.

Use the following master data in the process steps described in this document:

Manufacturing / TradeMaster data Value Comments

Prerequisite Process Steps (154)

2.3 Roles

UseThe following roles must have been installed to test this scenario in the SAP NetWeaver Business Client (NWBC). The roles in this Business Process Documentation must be assigned to the user or users testing this scenario.
