Release key

Definition

Key that reproduces the release procedure for different areas of the company.

Procedure

For example, enter one of the following values:

• No release (blank)

The changes are not released for other areas of the company

• Global release (value 1)

The changes are released for all areas of the company.

• Release for one or more areas

For example: costing, planning, production

Examples

Release key 20 is defined in such a way that the changes are only released for costing. This means that the changes (for example, exchanging a cheap material for a more expensive one) are taken into account in costing, but not in planning or production.
