Setting Deletion Flags/Indicators in the Background - Orders (PM-SMA-SC/PM-WOC-MO)You can set deletion flags and indicators not only online , but also for areas that meet the same selection criteria.
For each selection area, you have the following options:
Set deletion flag only
Set deletion indicator only
Set deletion flag and deletion indicator simultaneously
However, the system can only set the status when the deletion criteria described in Checks are met.
For performance reasons, we recommend that you use the initial run either to set the deletion flag or to set the deletion indicator.
