• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/QINSP173 - Quality inspection &1 created ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/QINSP173 indicates that a quality inspection has been created for a specific handling unit (HU) or stock item in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This message typically arises in scenarios where quality inspection processes are integrated into warehouse operations, and it serves as a notification that a quality inspection has been initiated.
  Cause:
  The error message is not necessarily an error in the traditional sense but rather an informational message indicating that a quality inspection has been created for a handling unit or stock item. This can occur due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Quality Management Integration: The system is configured to automatically create quality inspections for certain materials or handling units upon receipt or during specific warehouse processes.
  Manual Trigger: A user may have manually triggered a quality inspection for a handling unit.
  Configuration Settings: The settings in the Quality Management (QM) module or EWM may dictate that inspections are created under certain conditions (e.g., specific material types, vendor inspections, etc.).
  
  Solution:
  Since this message is informational, there may not be a direct "solution" required unless it is causing a disruption in your processes. However, if you need to address the situation, consider the following steps:
  
  Review Inspection Lot: Check the inspection lot created for the handling unit or stock item. You can do this through transaction codes like QA32 or QA03 to analyze the details of the inspection.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings in both the QM and EWM modules to understand why the inspection was triggered. This may involve checking:
  
  Quality inspection settings for materials.
  Warehouse process types that may be linked to quality inspections.
  
  
  User Training: If the creation of inspections is being triggered manually, ensure that users are trained on the process and understand when and why to create inspections.
  Adjust Settings: If the automatic creation of inspections is not desired, you may need to adjust the configuration settings in the QM module or EWM to prevent this from happening in the future.
