Editing Waste Approvals - SAP Documentation

Use

This procedure describes how you create and change waste approvals.For each waste approval, you can enter the following data, for example:

Waste codes to which the waste approval applies

The waste quantity licensed for the waste code in the waste approval

Waste management business partners to which the waste approval applies and that are involved in the waste approval, for example waste generators, waste transporters, waste disposers, and authorities

Data that is required for integration in the SAP System, for example contracts

Disposal channels to which the waste approval applies

Disposal document type , in other words, which disposal documents the waste approval may be used for

Prerequisites

In Customizing for Waste Management , you have processed the following IMG activities:

Specify Waste Approval Types

Specify Processing Status for Waste Approvals

Specify Disposal Document Types

You have created the objects that you want to assign to the waste approval. You have also entered the necessary data, such as authority assigned numbers and validity areas in these objects.

Procedure

In the Waste Management menu , choose Master Data → Master Data Overview

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

When you create and change waste approvals, note the following:

A waste approval must contain certain data so that you can release it (see Releasing Waste Approvals ).

If you assign an object, such as a waste management business partner to the waste approval, and then change the object, this change is not taken into account in the waste approval.In other words, if for example, you assign a waste management business partner that does not have an authority-assigned number, but then you add this number to the waste management business partner afterwards, the number is not taken into account in the waste approval.In this case, you have to delete the assignment of the waste management business partner and assign it again.

Creating Waste Approvals

In the overview tree, double-click the waste management business partner for which you want to create a waste approval.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

Since this waste management business partner is automatically assigned to the waste approval, you should only choose a waste management business partner that is also involved in the waste approval.

Proceed as follows, depending on the objects that you want to assign to the waste approval:

Choose the Waste Approval tab page directly if you initially only want to assign the waste management business partner that you chose at the start to the waste approval.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

Do not select any data records on the other tab pages before you choose the Waste approval tab page .

Proceed as follows if you want to assign a disposal channel to the waste approval:

i. Choose the Disposal Channel tab page.

ii. Select the disposal channel that you want to assign to the waste approval.

iii. Choose the Waste approval tab page.

If you chose a waste transporter in step 2, you cannot assign a disposal channel in this way in the standard system since the Disposal Channel tab page is hidden for waste transporters.In this case, double-click the waste generator or waste disposer from the disposal channel in step 2.

Enter the required data.

Select the waste approval and choose the following pushbuttons:

Waste code to assign waste codes to the waste approval and to enter data related to the waste codes, such as licensed quantities (see Editing Waste Code Assignments )
