Executive Summary
Background
Indo Schottle Auto Parts Pvt. Ltd. was established in 1985 with the principal
business focus of manufacture and sale of auto parts and engine components.
The company's registered office and manufacturing facilities are located at
Urawade, Taluka Mulshi, Pune City. Indo Schttle is growing at a very fast pace
and has now progressed to being the prime O.E. supplier of Engine Valve Collets
in India. The company also exports products to USA, Europe and Asia. Indo
Schttle also manufactures Collets, spare parts for turbo charger, oil seal plate
etc. for Japanese applications viz. Suzuki, Isuzu, Nissan, Honda and Toyota.
The present system in Indo Schttle includes a MS DOS based system called PC
Soft and data capturing in MS Excel Sheets. This leads to data distribution, i.e.
there is no centralization of data and security in terms of creation and deletion of
records. As a result, creation of summary reports becomes very cumbersome
and time consuming. Currently no option available to consolidate the finance
informations across multiple divisions.


Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
Indo Schottle has decided to implement an integrated ERP solution and has
selected the SAP R/3. Indo Schottle is implementing SAP R/3 5.0 ECC along
with Country India version to support upto maximum users across the plants.
Mphasis is the implementation partner for the R/3 implementation.
The R/3 modules which are being implemented, are

Empower Indo Schottle team to be self supporting
Overview of Blueprint Phase
This Document summarizes the findings of the Mphasis consulting team, which
conducted the requirement analysis of Indo Schottle for the SAP R/3 system.
This information was gathered thru the interviews conducted at the Indo Schottle
plants with managers , key users and personnel from information system, as well
as the reviews of the business processes, business procedures, documentation
and relevant reports.
The immediate purpose of the analysis is to prepare to move rapidly with the
implementation of the Indo Schottles R/3 system. At the conclusion of the
blueprint , the Mphasis Consultants will determine the SAP functionality required
to run the Indo Schottle business.


Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
The Blueprint and its associated appendices present a summarized perspective

of all functional business
processes that will be implemented. As such, the Blueprint document will serve from this point forward the dual role of both official project scope as well as
system acceptance criteria.
The body of this document describes the organizational structure, enterprise
area, and R/3 functional process flows to be implemented at Indo Schottle Auto
Parts Pvt. Ltd. Generally, requirements that can be met using standard R/3
functionality through routine configuration tasks are not explicitly documented.
However, certain key requirements are explicitly identified and summarized to
highlight their importance to Indo Schottle and to document the approach
proposed to meet the requirement.
The Blueprint reiterates the R/3 organizational structures that have been
identified and will serve as the basis for the initial configuration activities. The
Mphasis team believes that R/3 can accurately model Indo Schottles
organizational requirements.
No significant configuration choices have been identified that will prevent the
future implementation of additional capabilities within the R/3 environment.
The information gathered and documented in the Blueprint is sufficient for the
team to go forward into the Realization phase.

Quality Planning
Quality Planning Basic Data

In the basic data (master data), information is stored, that is used often. In QM,
the following master records
are available:
c. Inspection Method
d. Master Inspection Characteristic
e. Catalog
Quality Planning Inspection Planning
Inspection planning functions are used to define inspection criteria (for example,
material to be inspected,
how the inspection is to take place, characteristics to be inspected, required test
equipment, work center and
inspection specifications).


Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
The R/3 System contains the following inspection planning options:

You can use task lists (inspection plans, routings, rate routings, master recipes ,
and maintenance task
lists) to define inspection characteristics, their assignment to inspection
operations and the test
equipment to be used. This enables you to inspect materials at a quality
inspection.
The material specification allows you to structure simple inspection planning
procedures.
2.2
Quality Inspection
Quality Inspection component is used to determine whether manufactured

product consistently meets defined
quality requirements. In a quality inspection, you inspect a material or product,
using inspection specifications
that have been predefined in the Inspection planning component. Although the
inspection results only
document the current quality of a material or product, this information is also
useful for quality control (for
example, to optimize future processes).
Quality inspection covers the following important functions:
Inspection lot creation
Results recording
Inspection lot completion
R/3 Business Blueprint for BALCO
Quality Inspection Inspection Lot Creation

In the Quality Management (QM) component, you process quality inspections on
the basis of inspection lots.
If you want to inspect a specific quantity of a material or a piece of equipment, an
inspection lot must be created in the system. Once an inspection lot has been
created, you can inspect the goods, record the inspection results or defects, and
complete the inspection with a usage decision.

Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
The system uses the inspection lot to record, process, and manage information
for a quality inspection. This information includes:
Inspection processing data such as:
Inspection lot origin
Inspection date
Processing status of inspection lot
Account assignment information for cost settlement
Inspection specifications (for example, the task list or material specification
according to which the goods in the inspection lot will be inspected)
Inspection results
Recorded characteristic values
Recorded defects
Usage decision (a decision that specifies whether the goods in the inspection
have been accepted or rejected)
An inspection lot can be created manually by the user or automatically by the
system.
Once an inspection lot has been created, an inspection specification is usually
assigned to it. The system can assign an inspection specification automatically or
you can assign one manually.
Quality Inspection Result Recording
In the Results Recording component, you record and process results for
inspection characteristics. The inspection lot is the reference object in results
recording.
The recorded inspection results, document the quality of the inspected product
and provide the basis for creating batch specifications and inspection certificates.
You can use the recorded result data to make evaluations for quality control
purposes.
This function includes a worklist for recording inspection results for all objects
that allow results recording
(inspection lots, partial lots, inspection points in production or goods receipt,
physical samples, equipment and functional locations).
On the selection screen, you first define the selection criteria for the objects to be
processed and then start the selection.
After inspection lot selection, the first operation with characteristics to be
processed appears automatically.
The corresponding characteristic overview screen is displayed to record results.
(If you select a characteristic for results recording, the characteristic single
screen appears.)


Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
The characteristic overview screen displays an overview of all the characteristics

in an operation. On the characteristic overview screen, you can confirm the
following inspection results depending on the recording
view:
Summarized values and single values
Summarized values
Single values for an unit to be inspected
You can organize the view selection according to your needs using user settings.
Quality Inspection Inspection Lot Completion

Once inspection results have been recorded for an inspection lot and the
inspection is finished, you must reach a decision about the usage of the
inspected material. The Inspection Lot Completion (QM-IM-UD)
component provides you with the functions to:
Complete an inspection (inspection completion)
Make the usage decision for an inspection lot
Make stock postings for inspection lots that were created as a result of goods
movements (for example, to unrestricted-use stock, blocked stock, and scrap).
When you make a usage decision for an inspection lot, the system also :
Calculates a quality score for the inspection lot
Updates the quality level (inspection stages for next inspection lot)
Updates the QM Information System with statistical data
Triggers automatic follow-up actions (optional)
You can only make the usage decision for an inspect ion lot when all required
characteristics and processed
optional characteristics have been closed. If open, long-term characteristics still
exist when you complete the inspection, the system documents the completion of
a short -term inspection. Once an inspection has been completed, you can no
longer change the inspection results.
Usage decision
When you make the usage decision, you decide whether to accept or reject the
goods in the inspection lot based on the results of the inspection. While you are
in the transaction for the usage decision, you can also:

10

Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
Record defects
Activate quality notifications
Confirm activities for QM orders
Make stock postings
Once you have made the usage decision, the inspection is completed.
2.3
Quality Control
Active quality control ensures the constant quality of the processes and products.
You use quality control to:
Update of the qualit y level based on the inspection results
Usage of control charts to control the characteristic values
Update of the vendor evaluation for the procurement process
Quality Control Dynamic Modification Of The Inspection Scope
Dynamic modification refers to the possibility of flexibly determining the
inspection scope. For example, you can use the data from past inspection
valuations to calculate the current inspection scope.
For goods receipt inspections, goods issue inspections, and inspections during
production, dynamic modification means:
You can vary the sample size in stages between a predefined inspection scope
(for example, 100%) and a skip. A skip means that a certain number of deliveries
or lots are not inspected.
The inspection severity can change between a normal, reduced, and tightened
inspection.
The variation or change depends on past inspection results that are reflected in
the current quality level.
For dynamic modification at lot creation, the quality level is updated when an
inspection lot is created. The system assumes that the forthcoming inspection
will lead to an acceptance of the inspection lot or characteristic.
An inspection lot, which is created immediately after the quality level is updated,
uses the information in the updated quality level without a usage decision having
been made.
If dynamic modification is carried out at lot creation and the inspection lot is
subsequently rejected, the system updates the quality level again when the
11

Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
usage decision is made. The new inspection stage is used by the system to
calculate the sample sizes for the next inspection lot.
2.4
Quality Notifications
This component contains functions for recording and processing different types
of problems (for example, problems resulting from poor-quality goods or
services). You can use the notifications to analyze the recorded
defects and monitor the correction of these problems. In particular, the
notifications can help you process internal or external problems such as:
Complaints against vendors
Company-internal problems
Other user-specific problems
As an extremely flexible system, you can also use this component to process and
manage information of a positive nature (for example, to implement a "suggestion
system" in your company to manage improvements).
2.5
Control in logistics
This component controls the integration of the QM application component in the

logistical processes.
QM is integrated in the master data and processes of:
Materials management (procurement, inventory management, materials
planning)
Production (work scheduling, production control)
Control In Logistics QM In Procurement
This component contains functions that allow you to integrate the tasks of Quality
Management with the procurement processes.
Using the functions of the QM in Procurement component, you can:
Release or block vendors and manufacturers

12

Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
Supply quality documents with requests for quotations and purchase orders
Evaluate vendors on the basis of quality
Certify vendors or manufacturers that have QM systems implemented, to
reduce the inspection requirement
Request that quality certificates be submitted with the delivered goods and
monitor the receipt of these certificates
Manage the posted goods in inspection stock
Block the payment of invoices until the goods have been inspected and
accepted
Control In Logistics QM In Production
This component contains functions, which allows carrying out several individual
inspections at different intervals during production or as a result of certain events.
With the component QM in Production, you can process inspections during a
production operation (while manufacturing discrete parts) or a process phase
(while producing process goods). You can monitor the production process
continuously with respect to the inspection characteristics
Using inspection points for an inspection during production, you can:
R3 Business Blueprint for BALCO
Inspect materials at regular intervals
Record inspection results for each inspection point and valuate each inspection
point with a "usage decision"
Assign a produced quantity to each inspection point and allocate the inspection
point quantities to partial lots.
With production lots with inspection point processing, the system transfers the
results to the batch
classification when you record results for the inspection point and not when the
usage decision is made.

The Quality Management module of SAP R/3 (ver ECC 5.0) offers appropriate
support in terms of mapping and representing the activities performed by QA
department in material procurement, production and quality notifications.
4.1
Role in Material Procurement
Incoming raw materials are to be sampled and tested as per procedure.

Wherever necessary any material may be allowed to go for unrestricted use
before confirmation of quality test results. In case of nonconforming
raw material quality, quality notification will be issued which will be processed in
MM and FI component.
Vendor evaluation will be done on the basis of consistency of quality of raw
material supplied.
4.2
Role in Production
During production inprocess inspection lot will be created. This can be displayed
by users as and when required. Inspection lot for goods receipt from production
will be created. Result recording will be done and based on this, product will be
classified into various grades. Inspection result will be transferred to the batch
characteristics as characteristic values.

QM Master Data
5.1 - Introduction
Scenario
Quality Management
Process
QM<Master Data>
5.2 - DESCRIPTION
Master data includes information that is important for quality management. It is
handled independently from the maintenance of inspection plans.
In the QM component, the following data is maintained as master data:
Master inspection characteristics

Inspection methods
Inspection catalogs
Dynamic modification procedures
5.2.1 <Master Inspection Characteristics>

An inspection characteristic describes what needs to be inspected. It
defines the inspection requirements for materials, parts and products.
To standardize inspection planning, user has to create master records for

inspection characteristics in the Quality Management (QM) system. These
characteristics are called master inspection characteristics.

16

Blueprint Phase

Project Integrate
When Creating the master inspection characteristics the user should enter
the Valid from field the system proposes the current date as the beginning
date for the validity period of the master inspection Characteristics.
User has to define the Characteristics Type in the system qualitative or a
quantitative characteristic.
Then user will maintain the control indicators for the characteristic.
The control indicators defines how inspection results are to be recorded,
whether a sampling procedure is required or whether, in the case of a
quantitative characteristic, upper and/or lower tolerance limits have to be
entered. If you are creating a quantitative characteristic, you can maintain
a tolerance key and quantitative data.
5.2.2 - < Inspection methods>
Inspection methods define the procedures by which inspections should or

must be carried out. An inspection method describes how to inspect a
characteristic. To support inspection planning, user can create inspection
methods as individual master records.
The need for an inspection method is to describe an inspection procedure.
To create procedure or instruction for inspection method e.g. how to test
hardness of a material, how to measure the dimensions, etc. these can be
link to master inspection plan.
The first time when an inspection method will be assigned, the system
sets a usage indicator in the inspection method. This indicator is relevant
when you delete an inspection method.
User can assign as many inspection methods as he want to a master
inspection characteristic.
5.2.3 - < Inspection catalogs>
User can define a Catalog and store information in a coded

example, data that describes inspection results, observations,
decisions made during an inspection). Catalogs ensure
information is maintained uniformly by allowing user to assign
key and a descriptive text to each entry .

2-Tasks
8-Activities
9-Defect Type
3-Usage decisions
4-Events
5-Causes
6-Defect consequences
Catalogs are used to :

Store information at the characteristic level in task lists.
Describe inspection results, defects, and defect locations using the
codes from the corresponding catalogs during inspection lot
processing.
Make usage decisions and carry out evaluations using the codes in
catalog 3 during inspection completion.
Classify quality notifications on the basis of the entries in the
catalog for (for example, as a problem notification, complaint or
reminder)
5.2.4 - <Dynamic Modification Procedure>
Dynamic modification rule contains a definition of the inspection stages

and conditions that lead to a change in the inspection stage. User can
define a dynamic modification rule in the task list header, at the
characteristic level of a task list, or in the QM inspection data of the
material master.
The use of Dynamic Modification procedure is to increase or reduce the
inspection for a material that is procured from a vendor because of the
quality level.
In the system user define individual inspection stages with inspection
severity, skips, and short texts. User also select an inspection stage as the

beginning of the inspection stage .The inspection stage describes a test

status or an inspection status that is based on the inspection.
For each inspection stage, you can define conditions under which the
system increases or decreases the inspection . There are two cases :
An "OK" case
A "not-OK" case
If the conditions for a "not-OK" case are met, the system selects the new
inspection stage that was defined for a "not-OK" case. The number of
rejections that must occur before the inspection stage can be changed
If the conditions for the "OK" case are met, the systems selects the new
inspection stage that was defined for an "OK" case. The number of
inspections to be carried out before the inspection stage can be changed.
If neither condition is fulfilled, the system does not change the inspection
stage.

hand.
When an inspection lot is created automatically, all stock postings are
carried out by the QM component. As a result, user can make stock
postings using the functions within the scope of the usage decision.
An inspection plan or material specification must be assigned to the
material.
User will enter vendor-related data, or the following information to identify
the origin of goods for which you are creating the inspection lot:

Then user will go for the Result Recording in the system .

In order to create an inspection lot during production, the following
conditions must be met:
The inspection type for inspection lot origin 03 or 13 must be

active.
User must create a routing for the inspection in production for
the material and you must assign one or more inspection
characteristics to the operations in the routing.
User must create a production order for the material. The
system retrieves the routing that is valid for the material and
copies the operations and characteristics from the routing to the
production order.
At the latest, the system automatically creates an inspection lot
when the production order is released \ confirmation.

For Quality evaluation of any material, an inspection is carried out based on
inspection plan or on quality specification of the material.
Quality specification are maintain for individual material / products and should
contain details data of the material (i.e. quality, Packing, physical status, etc.). So
it is a material specific.
And for inspection we have to generate inspection plan which defines parameters
(characteristics) needs to be inspected for evaluation. So inspection plan is use
to define which characteristic are to be inspected in each operation of material for
evaluation.

QM<Inspection Plan>
The inspection plan is the task list used by the Quality Management
(QM) component to process quality inspections. Inspection plans are
used to carry out such production-related tasks (for example, inspecting
goods upon goods receipt or goods issue).
Quality inspections during production are carried out on the basis of the
routing. Inspection Plans depends on the master data This data includes
inspection catalogs, inspection characteristics, inspection methods,
sampling procedures, sampling schemes, dynamic modification rules,
inspection plans, reference operation sets and material specifications.
The plan consists of the following elements:
General information (header)
One or more operations; operations within the QM component are
created and maintained exactly as those within the Production
Planning (PP) component. For information about operations, see
the online documentation for PP Production Planning.
For each operation you can define :
Test equipment used for the inspection (as production resources) .
Location where the inspection takes place (as work centers).
Inspection characteristics (inspection characteristics cannot be
assigned to a sub-operation).
6.3.2 Description :

The inspection plans are created in the planning plant. One plan for each
group of materials and type of inspection (e.g. final inspection, recurring
inspection) required. Where there is more than one inspection type
required for a specific material group then we can keep them in the same
task list group and distinguish them by different group counters.
All of the materials within the same material group will then be assigned to
the relevant group and group counter(s) For better control and
maintenance, it is feasible to keep all inspection plans in a Planning Plant
with assignment to related Production Plant.
User will Enter a date in the future the inspection plan will be valid. The
system will populate this field with the current date.
User can Enter a short description of the inspection plan.
User will enter the Usage Key which is a alphanumeric key that uniquely

An inspection lot is the basis for all the results processing which has to be
created initially.
After user enter an inspection lot, specifying operation (because results
processing is carried out at the level of the inspection operation). User
must process all of the characteristics in an operation before you proceed
to the next operation.
Name of the inspector, as well as the starting date and time of the
inspection will be entered in the system.
The system displays all inspection characteristics to be processed for
each respective operation on the characteristic overview screen. For each
characteristic the status, valuation, short text, sample size (to be
