Attributes of System Messages
In Purchasing, certain system messages
containing important information for users may be issued from time to time
(for example, "Net price of purchase order is higher than material price").
Users can act on the information thus provided.
In this step, you can specify whether the SAP
System:
- Suppresses the relevant
information
- Issues it as a warning message
- Issues it as an error message
In the case of
an
error message,
processing cannot be continued until user input has been corrected. You can
also group the messages according to user classes by saving the messages as
different versions.
Activities
1. Process the
list of system messages by assigning each one to a message
category.
2. After having
saved the message categories as different versions, you can assign a version
to certain users. This results in the same message appearing as an error
message for one user, but as warning for another.
For this purpose,
you must assign the parameter ID "MSV" and the version number to the relevant
user master records.
