Explanation / Answer
Q.1 What is the function of Material group (key)?
Material groups enable you to classify and structure your entire merchandise assortment at multiple levels (breadth and depth). Every material is assigned uniquely to one material group across the whole corporate group.
In particular, material groups allow you to: perform structured analyses in the Information System; plan target and actual values; and store common data (such as conditions) at higher levels. Its mostly used in SAP retail.
Q.2 What does the QM inspection data indicator indicate?
Characteristic Type
Indicator
What You Should Know
Quantitative
Upper specif. limit
Lower specif. limit
Check target value
You define, whether the target value lies within the tolerances and which limits are to be inspected. Depending on which indicators you have set, you can enter additional quantitative data and a tolerance key.
Quantitative
Confirm values
You define whether measured values are to be inspected and confirmed.
Quantitative
Calculated charac.
You define whether the inspection results are determined by the inspection of the inspection characteristic itself, or by other inspection characteristics within the same operation.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Sampling procedure
You define whether a sampling procedure must be assigned when the master inspection characteristic is used in the task list or in the material specification (optional for an inspection with a material specification).
Quantitative/
qualitative
SPC characteristic
You define whether a control chart is to be run.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Additive sample
When samples are calculated, you define whether the size of the partial sample is increased by the quantity that is required for the inspection of this characteristic.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Destructive insp.
You specify whether the sample is to be destroyed after inspection. This means that is no longer available. This quantity is used in the usage decision as the proposed quantity for the posting to sample.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Summ. recording
Single result
No charac. recording
Classed recording
Defects recording
You define the type of results recording for the master inspection characteristic.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Required charac.
Optional charac.
After accept.
After rejection
You define whether the inspection characteristic must always be inspected, or whether it is only to be inspected under certain conditions.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Scope not fixed
Fixed scope
Smaller scope
Larger scope
You define the inspection scope. For example, you specify whether the number of inspected units at results recording can be smaller or greater than the precalculated number of units to be inspected.
Quantitative/
qualitative
No documentation
Docu. if rejected
Docu. required
You define if and when additional text is to be entered, when you record results, for documentation purposes.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Long-term inspection
You define that the inspection is to take place over a long period of time. The usage decision can already have been made and the vendor can have been evaluated.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Scrap share/ q-score
You define whether the fraction of nonconforming units for this characteristic is taken into account, when the scrap share for the inspection lot is calculated (this only occurs if specific quality scores are used when the usage decision is made).
Quantitative/
qualitative
RR change docs
You define whether change documents are to be written for results recording based on characteristics.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Test-equi assignment
You define whether you can assign test equipment to the master inspection characteristic in the task list.
Quantitative/
qualitative
Do not print
Do not print at skip
You define whether and under which conditions the master inspection characteristic is printed on the inspection instruction.
qualitative
Charac. attribute
You define whether you reference codes from a selected set in results recording, or whether you valuate manually with accepted or rejected. If you set this indicator, it affects the assignment of code groups and codes .
qualitative
Defects confirmation
You define whether defects are to be recorded if the characteristic is rejected
Q.3 What is the function or use of QM control key?
Either you can change this message mode from error to warning or information OR
You need to maintan other settings for each radio button, like for first radio button, maintain the Q Info record, 2nd radio button- you need to define the certificate type & maintain the same in material master etc.
Q.4 What is a valuation class
Valuation class is a group of raw materials with the same account determination. In any concern there will be hundrends or thousands of raw materials.You might have known while integrating FI-MM you have to create a general ledger account for each raw material.
Since we are allowed to answer only 4 sub parts I did not answer the rest
