SAP Quality Issue Management
(SAP QIM)

No company process runs perfectly all the time, so quality deviations are part of daily business. These include, for example, production and logistics problems, but also incoming customer complaints or deviations in the area of suppliers. Therefore, every company needs processes and tools to detect and document quality deviations at an early stage, to track them, to correct them successfully and, last but not least, to avoid them in the future.

The SAP Quality Issue Management Module (SAP QIM) solves these problems and allows an efficient and integrated management of quality issues across the entire company.
SAP QIM is based on the proven SAP NetWeaver architecture and provides a fully comprehensive software solution for managing all of a company’s quality issues. It offers seamless integration with existing SAP and non-SAP systems. When switching to the SAP S/4HANA world, the simultaneous connection of ECC as well as S/4HANA systems is also possible.

The use of SAP QIM is role- and web-based via an intuitive user interface, which guides the user through data entry and allows flexible definition of business scenarios and terminologies. SAP QIM enables efficient identification, assessment and handling of quality issues where the related data can be obtained and processed from different sources. In doing so, it ensures the compliance of business processes by integrating deviation and CAPA management and checking the measures derived from it for their effectiveness and validity. However, it can also be used for mapping 8D management.

Numerous reporting and analysis options round off the extensive functional scope of SAP QIM. Last but not least, compared to competing solutions, SAP QIM offers higher system stability, better usability and a more extensive and robust integration into an already existing SAP ERP system.
