In this step, you define data origins for certificates.

If you are using certificate types which contain value information for inspection characteristics or class characteristics, the values can have the following origin:

  • Default values for characteristics
    • From master inspection characteristics
    • From batch specifications
  • Results for characteristics
    • From result records for the inspection lot or partial lot
    • From batches

You can define sources for language-specific characteristic short texts irrespective of the origin of the value specifications:

  • Characteristics from a certificate profile

If no text is found here, the system accesses further master records:

  • Master inspection characteristics
  • Class characteristics

If the results are loaded from inspection lots or partial lots, you must specify strategies for the skip procedure when maintaining the certificate profiles.
If the results for inspection points or samples were loaded, the mean values and original values for the last inspection point or last sample (or for all inspection points or samples in an inspection lot) can be included in the certificate.

You can define keys for all of the listed data origins in the system and assign function modules for data retrieval to these keys.

In certain circumstances you need to include differing materials in certificates, for example, if the same material is sold in different forms, but the properties of the material remain the same.

To avoid incorrect assignments of data origins, you define allowed combinations of data origins for characteristic specifications and characteristic values. You can also define that specifications and values must come from the same source.

Standard settings

The system already contains predefined keys and function modules for the data origins.

Proposals are also implemented in case of a skip.

Recommendation

  • Use the data origins set in the system. Consult an expert if you want to implement your own data origins.
  • Do not change the function modules implemented in the standard system. Create your own function modules, if necessary. Use the available function modules as copy models, for the interfaces in particular.

Activities

You can use the online documentation for the table fields and function modules to determine from where the system retrieves the characteristic data in the standard system. It is only necessary to define your own origins and function modules if this manner of retrieval is not acceptable. In doing so, consider the following origins:

  1. Origin of the default values
  2. Origin of the short texts
  3. Origin of the result values
  4. Alternative strategy in case of a skip
  5. Allowed combinations of default origins and characteristic values
    The report RQCFTQ65 determines the usual combinations using the characteristic data in the existing certificate profiles and makes entries in the table.

Further notes

You can specify which inspection characteristic results are used for data retrieval. In the standard system, these are all of the valuated characteristics. In the chapter Quality Inspection/Results Recording, you will find more detailed information under filter for inspection characteristics. The table entry QC00 is responsible for retrieval of the certificate data.
