The quality level in SAP QM tracks inspection history (e.g., for dynamic modification) and is updated at specific process steps:
* Making the Usage Decision for an Inspection Lot (B): The usage decision (UD, transaction QA11) updates the quality level based on inspection results (e.g., accept/reject), determining future inspection scopes (e.g., skip or reduced). This is configured in SPRO > QM > Quality Inspection > Dynamic Modification.
* Creating an Inspection Lot (C): Lot creation (e.g., for type 01 or 03) can update the quality level if it' s the first lot or if prior levels are reset, especially with dynamic modification rules active.
* Creating a Quality Notification (A): Notifications document issues but don't directly update the quality level unless tied to a UD.
* Creating a Quality Certificate (D): Certificates report results but don't influence the quality level.
Thus, "Making the usage decision for an inspection lot" and "Creating an inspection lot" are the correct answers.References: SAP Help Portal - "Quality Level in QM"; SAP S/4HANA QM User Guide - "Dynamic Modification".
