Derivation Monitor
Purpose
The derivation monitor is used to:
The derivation logs from the basis of the derivation monitor.
Prerequisites
Derivations have already been performed in your system.
Features
To go to the selection screen containing the following selection criteria, choose Logistics ® Central Functions ® Batch Management ® Batch Derivation ® Derivation Monitor to access the selection screen for the derivation monitor.
Selection Screen
On the selection screen, you enter the criteria for selecting the derivations that are to be displayed.

For example, you can display all derivations of batches with a certain expiration date, or all derivations for a batch or derivation event.
You can change the display of the derivations. You can choose whether the display focuses on the batches or on the derivation status.
Derivation Monitor
The derivation monitor displays all derivations that match the given selection criteria.
There are nine derivation statuses:
Derivation Status
|
Status of New Derivation |
Status After Change in Order or Batch Master |
Status after Manual Confirm. |
|
|
OK |
Derivation o.k. |
Derivation o.k., but data changed |
o.k., data change confirmed manually |
|
Warning |
Carried out with warning |
Warning and data change |
Warning, (data change) confirmed manually |
|
Error |
Terminated with error |
Error and data change |
Warning, (data change) confirmed manually |
After a derivation is performed for the first time, it can have one of three statuses:
The derivation was performed without errors.
For at least one attribute, one of the rules in the condition record is set to Warning, and the corresponding situation has occurred (for example, a sent attribute was empty). The system displays a warning for this derivation, but the derivation is still carried out. In other words, the receiver batch is changed.
For at least one attribute, one of the rules in the condition record is set to Error, and the corresponding situation has occurred (for example, the receiving attribute already contained a different value). The derivation is canceled, i.e. no attributes for the receiver batch are changed – not even the attributes where no error occurred.
Changing the Derivation Status
You can manually confirm an invalidated derivation in the derivation monitor by choosing Edit ® Set derivation status o.k. The derivation then receives one of the following statuses:
For more information on status changes after changes in the order or to the batch, see
Consistency Check for Changes to the Derivation.Additional Information
The derivation monitor offers you the following additional information using the context menu (right mouse button):
The batch where-used list shows:
The system displays all sender batches for a derivation, which have sent attributes to the receiver batch.
