    Certainly! Here's detailed information about the SAP error message W4326:


    SAP Message W4326

    Message Text:
    Material-dependent inspection type parameters : &
    (where & is a placeholder for the specific parameter or value)


    Cause

    This warning message appears when there is an issue with the material-dependent inspection type parameters in the Quality Management (QM) module of SAP. Specifically, it indicates that the system could not find or correctly determine the inspection type parameters that are dependent on the material master data.

    Common causes include:

    • The material master record does not have the required QM views or inspection type parameters maintained.
    • The inspection type parameters for the material are incomplete or missing in the configuration.
    • The system is unable to determine the inspection type because the material is not assigned to the correct QM control parameters.
    • Incorrect or missing entries in the Inspection Type Determination customizing (transaction code SPRO path: Quality Management ? Quality Inspection ? Inspection Planning ? Inspection Type ? Define Inspection Type Determination).

    Explanation

    In SAP QM, inspection types define the kind of inspection to be performed (e.g., 01 - Goods Receipt Inspection, 02 - In-Process Inspection, 03 - Final Inspection). These inspection types can be determined based on various parameters, including the material.

    If the system cannot find the material-dependent inspection type parameters, it cannot automatically assign the correct inspection type during inspection lot creation or other QM processes.


    Solution

    To resolve the warning W4326, follow these steps:

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Verify that the material has the QM views maintained.
      • Ensure that the inspection type parameters are correctly maintained in the material master (transaction MM02 ? Quality Management view).
    2. Review Inspection Type Determination Configuration:

      • Go to SPRO ? Quality Management ? Quality Inspection ? Inspection Planning ? Inspection Type ? Define Inspection Type Determination.
      • Check the entries for inspection type determination based on material and other parameters.
      • Make sure that the material in question falls under the correct classification or grouping used in the inspection type determination.
    3. Maintain Material-Dependent Inspection Type Parameters:

      • If missing, maintain the inspection type parameters for the material.
      • This can be done via transaction QS41 (Maintain Inspection Type Parameters) or through customizing.
    4. Check QM Control Parameters:

      • Verify that the QM control parameters (e.g., inspection type, usage, origin) are correctly set up and assigned to the material.
    5. Recreate or Adjust Inspection Lot:

      • After corrections, try to create the inspection lot again to see if the warning persists.

    Additional Information

    • Transaction Codes:

      • MM02 – Change Material Master
      • QS41 – Maintain Inspection Type Parameters
      • QA01 – Create Inspection Lot
      • SPRO – Customizing (for inspection type determination)
    • Related Notes and Documentation:

      • SAP Help Portal on Quality Management inspection types.
      • SAP Notes related to inspection type determination and material master QM views.
      • Check OSS notes if the problem persists after configuration.

    Summary

    Aspect Details
    Error Message W4326 - Material-dependent inspection type parameters : &
    Cause Missing or incorrect inspection type parameters for the material in QM configuration.
    Solution Maintain QM views in material master, configure inspection type determination properly, and maintain inspection type parameters.
    Transactions MM02, QS41, QA01, SPRO

    If you provide the exact parameter or context (the value replacing &), I can help you with more specific guidance.
