Automatic Creation of Follow-On Document Records
Use
If a follow-on document (a
material document, for example) has been created in a processing step of an
entry document, the system creates a follow-on document record and includes it in the follow-on document table for the entry document. The follow-on document table contains all the follow-on document records for the entry document and therefore all the follow-on documents that were created during processing steps.
