Generally if there are some master data issues then we will get the below error message during the Inspection Lot Generation.
Characteristic results cannot be recorded for inspection lot 1000xxxxxx Message no. QE181
Diagnosis You cannot record any characteristic results for this inspection lot. The material master has been set up for the existing inspection type in such a way that results recording is not supported.
Procedure Confirm defects for this inspection lot or select another inspection lot in which you can confirm the characteristic results.
Solution:
Please check if there is a Task List assigned to the Inspection lot.
If not then try to go to the change mode of the inspection lot and try to assign the task list /Spec
Either it will get assigned or it will provide some error messages.
Once you resolve this then the next inspection lot should get the Task list automatically
Also note the easy way of identifying this issue is by using the Inspection lot status. The below comparison will help you .
During the Inspection lot generation especially the 03 lots are not getting generated and below message are noticed:
Inspection lot not created automatically via transaction CO01/CO02
Warning message CO548 raised in production order release
Production order has status ILNC – Inspection lot not created
Warning raised in production order release – ‘Material &1: automatic generation of inspection lot failed’
The below message is displayed:
Material XXXXXXXXX: automatic generation of inspection lot failed
Message no. CO548
Diagnosis
The system tried to create an inspection lot, but failed.
System Response
Processing is continued without creating an inspection lot.
Procedure
Check, whether the quality inspection data is maintained in the material master.
When you have maintained all the necessary data, you can also create the inspection lot in a production order / process order at a later date by calling up the screen ‘main header’ again.
⚡This APP helps to get the information about the every MRP run that is complete in the System. ⚡This has a status for us to track the progress of the MRP Run – Finished or In-Progress ⚡Shows a table of all the MRP runs which have been triggered as per the filter applied ⚡There are multiple filter available to find the completed MRP Jobs ⚡It gives the detail in the Information and settings on the details given during the MRP RUN ⚡It also gives the details of the Processed Materials and the duration in the seconds ⚡The Low level Code steps , Provides detailed information about the low-level code and type of MRP step including the number of materials planned per low-level code. It gives details about how many orders were created or deleted and how much time was required for each step. ⚡The All live MRP steps Provides detailed information about each individual step performed in MRP live including how many materials were planned in this step, how many orders were created or deleted and how much time was required for each step. ⚡For each step there are multiple key figures related to the steps, all these are detailed to analyze the performance of the MRP run in the system

🎯The below are the movement that are triggered during the Quality Usage Decision
📍To Unrestricted Stock – 321 📍To Scrap – 553 📍To Sample Usage – 331 The quantity you entered is posted to sample usage stock. In the case of destructive inspections, the system proposes the destroyed quantity in this field.The quantity calculation is based on the algorithm defined in the control indicator documentation for destructive inspections.
📍To Blocked Stock – 350
📍To New Material – 309 The entered quantity is posted as a transfer to the stock of a different material.
📍To Reserves – 350 The quantity you enter is posted to a storage location of blocked stock. This storage location is used to manage a quantity of the sample that is kept in reserve after an inspection.
📍Return Delivery – 122 The entered quantity is posted as a return to a supplier.
⚡In SAP Materials may appear in several products and in several production levels of a product.
⚡The low-level code represents the lowest level of usage of a material within all product structures.
⚡Key Points on Low Level Code:
📍Purpose: The low-level code ensures materials are planned in the correct order, respecting dependencies.
📍MRP Run: During MRP runs, materials are planned starting from the lowest level code to the highest.
📍Hierarchy: Lower-level codes (higher numbers) indicate materials used in higher-level assemblies or subassemblies.
📍Automation: The system sets the low-level code automatically based on the BOM structure.
⚡In the SAP material master record, each material is allocated one low-level code which is determined by the bill of material management program and automatically updated in the MARA Table.
⚡You can also display the low-level code in the material master in the information Icon
