• Key Concepts: 
  Inspection objects are used in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) to define the characteristics of goods that need to be inspected. They are used to determine which goods need to be inspected and how they should be inspected. The inspection object contains information such as the type of inspection, the inspection criteria, and the sampling procedure.
  
  How to use it: 
  Inspection objects are created in the SAP EWM system and can be assigned to different types of goods. When goods are received into the warehouse, the system will check if an inspection object is assigned to them. If so, the system will automatically trigger an inspection process. The inspection process will involve checking the goods against the criteria specified in the inspection object.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to ensure that all relevant information is included in the inspection object. This includes details such as the type of inspection, the criteria for acceptance or rejection, and any special instructions for handling or storing the goods. This will ensure that all inspections are carried out correctly and efficiently.
  
  Related Information: 
  Inspection objects can also be used in conjunction with other features of SAP EWM such as quality notifications and quality certificates. Quality notifications can be used to alert personnel when a certain quality threshold has been reached, while quality certificates can be used to document that a certain quality standard has been met.
