  Check QM Status: Use transaction codes like QA32 or QA33 to review the status of the stocks in question. This will help you identify which stocks are in QM and why they are being ignored.
  Quality Inspection Lot: If you need to include these stocks in your current operation, you may need to complete or cancel the existing Quality Inspection lot associated with those stocks.
  Consult with QM Team: If you are unsure about the status of the stocks or how to proceed, consult with your Quality Management team to understand the implications of the stocks being in QM and how to handle them appropriately.
