• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EG378 - No sample devices and spare sample devices found for lot &1 ?

  The SAP error message EG378 ("No sample devices and spare sample devices found for lot &1") typically occurs in the context of quality management and inspection lot processing. This error indicates that the system could not find any sample devices or spare sample devices associated with the specified inspection lot.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Sample Devices: The inspection lot may not have any sample devices assigned to it. This can happen if the lot was created without specifying the necessary sample devices.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the quality management module that prevent the system from recognizing the sample devices.
  Data Inconsistencies: There could be inconsistencies in the master data or the lot data that lead to the inability to find the sample devices.
  Lot Status: The status of the inspection lot may not allow for sample devices to be assigned or used.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Sample Device Assignment:
  
  Go to the inspection lot in question and check if any sample devices are assigned. You can do this by navigating to the inspection lot details in the SAP GUI.
  If no sample devices are assigned, you may need to assign them manually or create new sample devices as needed.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the configuration for sample devices in the quality management module is set up correctly. This includes checking the settings for inspection plans and sample management.
  Consult with your SAP QM consultant or system administrator to verify that the configuration aligns with your business processes.
  
  
  
  Inspect Master Data:
  
  Check the master data for the materials involved in the inspection lot. Ensure that the sample devices are correctly defined and linked to the relevant materials.
  If necessary, update the master data to include the required sample devices.
  
  
  
  Check Lot Status:
  
  Verify the status of the inspection lot. If the lot is in a status that does not allow for sample devices to be processed, you may need to change the status or take appropriate actions to enable sample device usage.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on handling inspection lots and sample devices.

  Quality Management Module: Familiarize yourself with the Quality Management (QM) module in SAP, as it contains various functionalities related to inspection lots, sample management, and quality control processes.
  User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is involved in the sample device assignment, check for any user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) that may affect the process.
