Date shift

Definition

This indicator determines that the system checks the protected time period when you process a change master record or change object.

Use

If you process an object within the protected time period, you see either a warning message or an error message.

The check is made in the following processing situations:

• Processing a change master record

• Entering the valid-from date

• Entering an alternative date

• Shifting the valid-from date or alternative date

• Allocating an alternative date to a change object or deleting an allocation

• Processing a change object with reference to a change number whose valid-from date is in the protected time period

• Changing a change object (for example, BOM or routing)

• Assigning or changing a revision level

Dependencies

You can enter a number of calendar days in the field Warn. time in days and/or Error time in days. This number of days is then used to calculate the period.
