Use

You use this function to display and process worklists that you have created and saved in the Discontinuation Workbench. The worklist also serves as a discontinuation log for controlling discontinuation runs.

Prerequisites

You have created and saved worklists in the Discontinuation Workbench.

For more information, see Discontinuation Workbench.

Features

Selecting worklists

You can enter selection criteria to select the worklists that you want to process. Your user name is defaulted as a selection criterion. When you execute the selection, the system displays an overview of the selected worklists.

Overview of worklists

·        The system displays general information for the selected worklists and statistics about the items that have been checked, for example, how many items in a worklist it checked and found to be correct.

·        You can select and delete worklists, even if you have not yet completely processed these worklists.

Note

The system does not automatically delete worklists that have been fully processed, as the worklists are also discontinuation logs. You have to manually delete worklists that you no longer require.

·        You can select a worklist to process it or display the discontinuation log.

Note

The worklists are not user-dependent. You can therefore process worklists created by other users.

Individual processing of worklists

·        The system displays all the individual items in the selected worklist with the corresponding discontinuation log.

·        You can perform follow-up actions for items in the worklist. When the system has successfully performed follow-up actions, it updates the discontinuation log display.

Note

If you filter worklists, the system only performs follow-up actions for the displayed items.

·        If the system could not perform a follow-up action successfully, you can view the relevant error log.

Caution

The system does not save the error log as it is deleted after individual processing.

·        You can display additional information from master data and movement data for a worklist item in the error log, for example, for the article, purchasing info record, or vendor.
