Setting a User Status (SAP Library - Engineering Change Management (LO-ECH))

Setting a User Status

You can only maintain a user status for an ECR or ECO if a user status is defined for the selected change type. You can define user statuses in Customiizing for Engineering Change Management under Define change types.

You maintain the user status for the change master record and the change object on different screens:

To maintain the user status of a change master record, go to the change header screen (Goto ® Change header).

To maintain the user status of a change object, go to the detail screen of the object management record (Goto ® Object overview ® <Change object> ® Detail screen).

To set a user status:

Go to either the change header or the detail screen of the object management record.

To see the current system statuses with short text, choose the Status mgmt pushbutton (Goto ® Status management). The Status screen appears.
On this screen, the System status dataset and the User status dataset are displayed.

If you want to set a new user status, choose the User status pushbutton (Edit ® Set user status).

The User Statuses Allowed dialog box appears, containing all the user statuses in the status profile that can be set in the current processing situation.

Select a user status.
