• Key Concepts: 
  Conditional inspection characteristics are used in SAP Quality Management (QM) to define the conditions under which an inspection lot is accepted or rejected. These characteristics are used to determine the acceptability of a product based on certain criteria, such as size, weight, color, or other physical attributes.
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP QM, conditional inspection characteristics are used to define the criteria for acceptance or rejection of an inspection lot. The criteria can be based on physical attributes such as size, weight, color, or other characteristics. The criteria can also be based on numerical values such as minimum and maximum values for a given attribute. Once the criteria have been defined, the system will automatically evaluate the inspection lot and determine whether it meets the criteria for acceptance or rejection.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up conditional inspection characteristics in SAP QM, it is important to ensure that the criteria are clearly defined and that they accurately reflect the desired outcome. It is also important to ensure that the criteria are consistent across all inspection lots so that there is no confusion when evaluating them.
  
  Related Information: 
  Conditional inspection characteristics are closely related to other SAP QM features such as sampling procedures and quality notifications. Sampling procedures define how many samples should be taken from an inspection lot and how they should be evaluated. Quality notifications are used to document any issues that arise during an inspection process and can be used to trigger corrective actions if necessary.
