Function documentationMonitoring Control of Issues and Activities

 

To monitor the quality issues and quality activities listed in the worklists, you can store different criteria for a monitoring control in the system. You can visualize the result in the worklist in the form of a traffic light.

Features

The monitoring control is enabled technically by implementations of the following Business Add-Ins (BAdIs):

  • BADI_QAM_POWL_ISSUE_VALUATION for the monitoring control of quality issues

  • BADI_QAM_POWL_ACT_VALUATION for the monitoring control of quality activities

In the standard system, two implementations are delivered for each of the two BAdIs:

  • Monitoring control according to status

    Examples: Completed quality issues or quality activities get a green traffic light, issues and activities in process get a yellow traffic light, and canceled ones get a red traffic light.

  • Monitoring control according to requested start and end date

    Examples: When the requested start date is reached, but the end date is not reached, the issue or the activity gets a yellow traffic light. If both dates are exceeded, a red traffic light is set.

For more information, see the documentation for the BAdI implementations.

All BAdI implementations delivered in the standard system are activated, that is, you can use these monitoring control criteria immediately in the worklist. You can create your own BAdI implementations for other criteria.

Activities

Display Traffic Light in Worklist

  1. To display the traffic light for monitoring, insert the Traffic Light column in the layout of the respective list.

  2. In the selection criteria for the list under Monitoring Control, specify the criterion (that is, the BAdI implementation) for the monitoring control.

Define Your Own Monitoring Control

  1. Create your own BAdI implementation in Customizing for QIM under Start of the navigation path Worklists for Quality Issues and Activities Next navigation step Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) for Monitoring Control End of the navigation path. You can use the existing implementations supplied as a guide.

  2. Create the filter value for the implementation in Customizing for QIM under Start of the navigation path Worklists for Quality Issues and Activities Next navigation step Define Monitoring Control of Issues and Activities End of the navigation path.

    The filter values stored here are available to users of the worklist as options when they select a criterion for monitoring control.

Note Note

If individual BAdI implementations (and thus criteria for monitoring control) are not to be available to the users of the worklist, set the Inactive indicator for the respective filter value in the Customizing activity Define Monitoring Control of Issues and Activities.

End of the note.
