  Key Concepts: 
  Inspection points are used in SAP Quality Management (QM) to define the points in a process where quality checks should be performed. They are used to ensure that the quality of a product or service meets the required standards. Inspection points can be used to check for defects, verify measurements, and ensure that the product or service meets customer requirements. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Inspection points can be set up in SAP QM by defining the inspection characteristics and specifying the inspection methods. The inspection characteristics define what is being inspected, such as dimensions, materials, or other characteristics. The inspection methods define how the inspection is performed, such as visual inspection, measurement, or testing. Once the inspection points have been set up, they can be used to trigger quality checks at specific points in the process.
