Operational System
Definition
Logical system responsible for carrying out logistical processes for a force element.
Use
In a distributed system landscape , the data of a force element or organizational structure can be available on multiple systems, that is, it was created on one system and distributed to one or more additional systems.
For each force element, you designate one of these systems as the operational system to specify that the logistical processes are controlled through this system. Only one logical system can be the operational system of a force element at any one time.
Reports are available for the initial definition of the operational system. You can perform a system switch if required.
In addition, the system contains information about system switches planned and already performed.
Structure
Assignments between force elements and logical systems are stored in table /ISDFPS/FORLOSYS :
Force Element
Force element to which a logical system is assigned
Logical System
The assigned logical system
Logical System Type
Specifies which functions for the force element are currently fulfilled by the assigned system:
Active System
This system is the current operational system of the force element.
Planned System
This system is the planned (future) operational system of the force element.
Former System
This system was the previous operational system of the force element.
In Transition
This system was the last operational system of the force element; a system switch has been triggered.
(The additional
Application
field is used only within the
program.)
Integration
Infotype 1984 (logical system) is available for planning the assignment of systems to force elements.
The system can check during the status change whether an operational system is defined for the force element.
