Answers: A, B, C

If you want to define a QM system and be able to control inspection skips, you must maintain various master records:
You define the requirements for a vendor's QM system in the material master record .
You specify the vendor's QM system (which is identified in Customizing as a certified system) in the vendor master record or the quality info record . If you enter the QM system in the vendor master record, the inspection skip applies to all of the vendor's materials. If you enter the QM system in the quality info record, the inspection skip only applies to a specific combination of material, vendor, and plant.
In the quality info record , you can override an inspection skip that has been defined in Customizing. For example, if you want to force inspections for a certain combination of material, vendor, and plant, you can specify this in the corresponding quality info record.
