Confirmations are a means of monitoring an order. To be able to react as quickly as possible to an error (for example, too much scrap), the MRP controller who is responsible for a production order needs to be informed as soon as possible. This can take place automatically by using SAP Business Workflow.
The MRP controller receives a work item and from there can edit the production order, create a new production order, cancel confirmations that have been entered or enter a new confirmation.
In this scenario, you need to program function module text EXIT_SAPLCORF_105 (customer enhancement CONFPP05).
For more information, for example, about how to inform the production scheduler instead of the MRP controller, refer to the component BC - Basis by choosing Business Management -> SAP Business Workflow -> Reference Documentation -> Workflow Scenarios in Applications -> Production Planning and Control -> Confirmation Variances (PP-SFC).
