If deliveries to the customer are intended for different purposes, then the QM system can provide different inspection plans. Often, for a sample delivery, quite different characteristics should be inspected before the outbound delivery than for a regular delivery of the same material.

To enable this process, the Application Consultant must configure the following settings in customizing:
One inspection lot origin must be entered for each delivery type.
For example, they assign inspection lot origin 10 (Inspection for a delivery for an order) to delivery type LF (Delivery).
One or more inspection types are assigned to each inspection lot origin.
For example, they assign inspection types 10 (Default delivery inspection for an order) and 1001 (Sample delivery inspection for an order) to inspection lot origin 10 (Inspection for a delivery for an order).
You assign an inspection type to a combination of the inspection lot origin and the usage indicator.
For example, they assign inspection type 10 (Default delivery inspection for an order) to inspection lot origin 10 (Inspection for a delivery for an order) without a usage indicator. They furthermore assign inspection type 1001 (Sample delivery inspection for an order) to inspection lot origin 10 (Inspection for a delivery for an order) to usage indicator Sample.
In the example, the system creates (by default) inspection lots with inspection type 10. If the sales order item has the usage indicator Sample, the system creates an inspection lot with inspection type 1001.
