SAP BAPI for QM Inspection Plan
What’s Inspection Plan in SAP QM ?
Inspection plans help you to describe how a quality inspection of one or several materials is to take place. In the inspection plan, you define the sequence of inspection operations and the range of specifications available for inspecting inspection characteristics. (source)
List of main SAP BAPI Inspection Plan
QM Inspection Plan important BAPI are:
| SAP QM BAPI | Description |
|---|---|
| BAPI_INSPECTIONPLAN_CREATE | Create inspection plan |

| BAPI_MATINSPCTRL_REPLICATE | Prepare inspection setup (inspection types) for distribution |
| BAPI_INSPPOINT_GETREQUIREMENTS | Load insp. specifications and insp. points |
BAPI_INSPECTIONPLAN_CREATE
You must enter a value for the following attributes to ensure the consistency of the header data:
- TASK_LIST_USAGE
- PLANT
- TASK_LIST_STATUS
- TASK_MEASURE_UNIT (unit of measure)
You can only specify a task list group (attributes TASK_LIST_GROUP and GROUP_COUNTER) with external number assignment. For internal number assignment, the task list group and the group counter are automatically determined during processing. (Source: SAP SE37 Info)

returntable = l_return.For the full ABAP Code Source, check this Sample Code BAPI_INSPOPER_RECORDRESULTS.
Actually in Tx-Code QE11 we can fill input for result in inspection characteristic, this program provides us to fill result inspection characteristic based on an inspection lot, operation code and inspection point which we can fill inspection point.
- Automatically fill Evaluation (Reject or Accept) depend on our value.
- We can fill whatever inspection point (depend on your case).
