Course Cancellation (SAP Library - Training Management in the SAP Learning Solution)

Course Cancellation

Caution

The following applies to time-dependent courses.

Use

You can cancel both internal and external courses in both planned and firmly booked status. When you cancel a course, the system appends the relevant flag to it.

Features

You can rebook participants for another course of the same type. The system automatically proposes an alternative date (where available).

You can create prebookings for booked and unplaced participants (waiting list bookings). Alternatively, you can leave them on the waiting list.

Note

You specify whichever of these two options you wish to use in Customizing for Training Management under Recurring Activities ® Firmly Book/Cancel ® Control Data in the SEMIN FIXRV entry.

When you firmly book a course, you can thus temporarily override the Customizing settings. You do so by choosing Settings ® Procedure Waiting List. This does not change the standard settings in Customizing.

Results

The status firmly booked is automatically assigned to the course.

The course no longer features in the course catalog.

Resources reserved for the course are released again.

No further bookings can be made for a canceled course.

Participants that remain on the waiting list are considered rebookable. You can display a list of participants that still have to be rebooked with the function Participation ® Book ® To be rebooked.

You can display a list of participants for whom a prebooking was made, by choosing Participation ® Book® Prebooked.

Caution

Cancellation of a course is final and irrevocable. Once a course has been canceled, it cannot ever be held. Thus, if you simply want to remove a course temporarily from the course catalog, you should use the Lock function.
