This procedure describes how you assign a waste approval to a disposal document.
· You have created and released the waste approval.
· You have executed the procedure Editing Disposal Documents for the required disposal document and are on the Create Disposal Documents or Change Disposal Documents screen.
...
1. Choose the Waste approval tab page.
2. Under AuthWasteAppr., enter the authority-assigned number of the waste approval or choose an authority-assigned number using the input help.

If you have already assigned a waste management business partner, a waste, or a waste code to the disposal document, these are automatically proposed as search criteria in the input help.
3. Save your entries.
The system takes the following data from the waste approval:
· Waste management business partners (waste generators, waste disposers, and waste transporters) that have been marked as document-relevant in the waste approval and that have an authority-assigned number whose validity area matches that of the disposal document type
For more information, see Editing Waste Management Business Partner Assignments, Assigning Authority-Assigned Numbers, and Specify Validity Areas in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Waste Management.

In Customizing for Waste Management, you specify under Specify Partner for Each Disposal Document Type how many waste management business partners for a role you can assign to a disposal document of a disposal document type. This data that you specify is also taken into account if waste management business partners are automatically taken from the waste approval.
· Waste from the disposal channel if the waste approval is assigned to a disposal channel and if the Transf. waste fr. app. indicator has been set under Specify Disposal Document Types in Customizing for Waste Management.
· Dangerous goods regulation for the main leg
