Define
Confirmation Parameters
In this step, you define the confirmation
parameters for each plant and order type. The parameters are split up as
follows on tab pages (for information on the validity of the parameters, refer
to
Further Notes
)
Generally valid settings
- The properties of the control key
Process control are defined elsewhere in Customizing (it can also be
called using the symbol next to the control key). It controls the execution of
the confirmation processes.
- You can define how quantities are determined
for automatically generated confirmations (milestone/progress
confirmation).
Using checks you can
define
- what happens when the sequence of operations
is not adhered to during confirmation or
- what happens when you want to confirm a larger
quantity than was confirmed for the preceding operation
You can choose
between a termination message, an error message, a warning message and an
information message.
- whether you want the total confirmed quantity
of an operation checked for underdelivery or overdelivery tolerance in the
order header
- what effect a QM result recording has on the
confirmation.
- whether dates (for example, posting date, end
of lead time, etc) should also be displayed with a date that is further in the
future than the time of creation
You can decouple HR
and PP with the No HR update indicator.
You specify that
only open orders are selected in the collective order.
You can select a
time unit that is to be proposed during confirmation.
Using the
all components indicator, you can specify that the system should
display all the components assigned to the operation in the goods movement
overview (in other words, not only backflushed components). However, if you
do not branch to the material overview at confirmation, the
system only posts backflushed components.
General
individual entry
You can define here
whether a partial confirmation, a final confirmation or a final confirmation
with clearing of open reservations is to be proposed for the
confirmation.
You can use the
indicator Actual costs to specify that the log is also
displayed if there are no error messages (thus only warnings or information
messages).
You can use the
Error handling indicator to specify that an error log is
displayed for incorrect items in goods movements (for backflush or automatic
goods receipts). You then have another opportunity to correct the items with
errors before saving, with the aid of the material overview.
Individual operation entry with the initial screen
- Propose data to be
confirmed
You can have the
system propose the open confirmation data for entry. For the quantities and
activities, the SAP System proposes the difference between the standard values
and the confirmed values. Otherwise, the standard values are proposed as
confirmation data.
- Display confirmed data/display
standard values
You can have the
system display both the confirmed data and the standard values for information
purposes.
- Screen control time
ticket
If you do not select
an entry screen on the initial screen, you can control the following
alternative entry screens by parameterization:
- Screen with the most important actual data
without a display of the values already confirmed and the standard
values
- Screen with quantities and activities and a
display of the values already confirmed and the standard values
- Screen with quantities and activities,
forecasted standard values and a display of the values already confirmed and
the standard values
You define that
confirmable or confirmed operations are also selected during the execution of
the confirmation processes
Activities
Define the parameter settings for the
confirmations in your plant for the possible order types.
