For more information, see SAP Note 217012.

End of the caution.

Features

Settings for Sales Document Control
What does the copying control define?

The copying control has been enhanced to allow you to copy a BOS from a source sales document to a target sales document. This means that you can decide whether BOS data and its conditions and costing items should also be copied.

You make these settings using the Copy services indicator. You can find this indicator on the item detail screen.

Indicator

Meaning

Space

No BOS data is copied when you create a new document.

X

The system copies the BOS data and its conditions from the preceding document when you create a new document. Costing is not copied.

C

The system copies the BOS and its costing items from the preceding document to the new document.

Caution Caution

Additions and deductions that have been entered during cost planning are not copied when costing is copied.

You cannot see the Copy services indicator if the target document is a debit memo request.

End of the caution.

Note Note

Up to Release DI 4.6C1, you can determine only whether BOS data should be copied.
