Maintaining Inspect on Receipt

Hi everyone, Currently, items are being flagged as IOR by Purchasing either because they are permanent IOR items, IOR due to prior non-conformances or sample parts. Once parts are inspected the IOR flag stays on even if the initial shipment was the only shipment intended to be inspected. The result is a Quality Inspection process that is being slowed down by unnecessary inspections (costly and frustrating). Essentially inspectors have no way of knowing why any particular part is being inspected so they cannot notify purchasing that it can be removed from the list (ex. a non-conformance was found so the next lot is being inspected to ensure that the corrective action is in place. Parts were found 'good' so that part number should be removed from IOR). Purchasing controls the flags because a flag cannot be changed unless all PO's/MO's for that part are closed. Quality would like to have control of the IOR flagging and/or designation visibility so they can at least notify purchasing if a IOR flag should be turned off. Has anyone else run into similar issues? Any bright ideas? How do you maintain IOR items? This seems like a fairly broad question in comparison to most other posts but any feedback would be appreciated. Looking for new ways to tackle this problem.
