Function documentationSystem Status Overview

 

The system status determines which business transactions you can execute for a marketing project.

Features

Created (CRTE)

This system status is the initial status for new marketing projects. The status is set automatically when you create a new marketing project. You structure the marketing project and enter plan values and dates.

The status does not allow you to:

  • Transfer to SAP ECC

  • Transfer the target group to the channel

  • Generate a trade promotion from a deal

Released (REL)

Released indicates that the structuring is complete and the marketing project is released for the operative execution of the marketing activities.

  • You cannot reset the status from Released back to Created. You also cannot change the identifying key of a marketing project once the project has been released.

  • You can only release a trade promotion once pricing conditions have been generated. The system then automatically creates campaign determination conditions.

Finished (FSHD)

This status identifies a finished/completed marketing project. A marketing project with the Finished status can no longer be changed.

Lower-level marketing projects belonging to the same marketing project are also finished automatically. This does not apply to lower-level marketing projects that have the Finished or Rejected status.

You can revoke the Finished status. The system then automatically revokes the status for all upper-level marketing projects in the relevant marketing project. For this, it is prerequisite that none of the marketing projects on a higher level to the relevant marketing project are finished or rejected.

Rejected (CNC)

This status identifies a canceled marketing project. A marketing project with the Rejected status can no longer be changed.

Note Note

The marketing project must have the Released status before it can be Rejected.

End of the note.

Lower-level marketing projects belonging to the same marketing project are also rejected automatically. This does not apply to lower-level marketing projects that have the Finished or Rejected status.

You can revoke the Rejected status. The system then automatically revokes the status for all higher-level marketing projects in the relevant marketing project. For this, it is prerequisite that none of the marketing projects on a higher level to the relevant marketing project are finished or rejected.

Locked (LCK)

This status can be set for each marketing project in addition to the current system status. It has the effect that no more changes can be made to the marketing project. Setting this status has no effect on the lower-level marketing projects.

You can revoke the Locked status.

Note Note

If you lock or reject a trade promotion, this automatically deletes any campaign determination conditions as the trade promotion is put on hold and cannot be used.

End of the note.
In Process (EXEC)

The system sets this status automatically when you enter:

  • An actual start date or

  • A completion rate less than 100 percent

The system revokes this status automatically when:

  • One or both of the above conditions are no longer met

  • You enter an actual start and actual finish date or

  • You enter a degree of processing of 100 percent or

  • The Finished or Rejected status has been set

Approved (APPR)

This status is set when a marketing project should be approved by someone responsible.
