End of the note.

Procedure

  1. On the Basic data screen of the document info record, enter the change number.

    When you confirm, the system sets the valid-from date from the change master record, provided that documents can be processed with reference to the change number.

    If the document is allocated to an alternative date in the change master record, the change is valid as of this alternative date rather than the valid-from date in the change master header.

  2. Save your document info record.

Additional Checks for an Engineering Change Order

There are additional checks for an engineering change order.

  • A change request must be approved and converted to a change order. If you are not entitled to do this, you see an error message. System status: the change request has not been approved yet.
