Raja - I'm confused about the screen shot you provided. It shows an inspection plan. For 03 inspection lots, the characteristics come from the reciepe or the routing. Not from an inspection plan. It is way Amol saw the discrepancy in the operation number.
My guess is that operation 011 is the operation of the receipe that is supposed to contain the characteristics. Either you are calling an inspection plan when you should be calling a reciepe or routing OR the receipe/routing doesn't contain characteristis in operation 011.
Please verify that the receipe for the second inspection lot contains characteristics. Inspection plan data should have no affect.
