Function documentation Setting Deletion Indicators for Change Statuses with Parameter Effectivity   Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

You use this function if you want to prevent an object from being included in certain change object development statuses. For example, you may want to prevent item B10 being included in BOM B for serial numbers 100 to 199.

To do this, create a change status with appropriate parameter effectivity and set the deletion indicator for it. For example, you create a change status for item B10, which has parameter effectivity for serial numbers 100 to 199 set the deletion indicator for it.

Note

This function is only of relevance to you, if your organization uses the Engineering Change Management (LO-ECH) component and uses change master records with parameter effectivity, to process bills of material and routings for example.

Features

Change statuses for which you have set the deletion indicator are no longer displayed in the Engineering Workbench.

Activities

You set the deletion indicator for a change status as follows:

  1. Go to the appropriate overview in the Engineering Workbench.
  1. Select the change status you want to set the deletion indicator for and enter its change number in the Process using screen section.
  1. Click This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

Note

If you enter a change number in the Process using screen section, with which you have not yet processed the object, the system generates a new change status and sets the deletion indicator for it at the same time.
