SAP QM (Quality Management) is a core module in the SAP ERP system that focuses on maintaining the desired level of product quality across various business processes. It integrates tightly with other SAP modules like MM (Materials Management), PP (Production Planning), and SD (Sales and Distribution), enabling end-to-end quality control throughout the supply chain. SAP QM ensures that quality standards are defined, monitored, and improved continuously, leading to reduced waste, increased customer satisfaction, and compliance with regulatory requirements.

One of the key strengths of SAP QM is its ability to manage quality in both production and procurement processes. The module supports quality inspection, quality planning, and quality control. It allows businesses to define inspection plans, set quality parameters, and automate inspection processes during goods receipt, in-process production, and final delivery. With real-time data and analytics, SAP QM helps identify quality issues early, reducing the risk of defects and improving overall product consistency.
