Documentation

Definition

Determines the conditions under which object changes are valid.

Use

Assigning an effectivity type means that the validity of changes is not determined by a valid-from date, but by the parameters of the effectivity type.

Procedure

Examples

Effectivity type SERNR (serial number) has the following parameters assigned to it:

  • Material number of parameter type S (single value)
  • Serial number of parameter type O (open interval)

If you choose effectivity type SERNR in the channge master record, you must maintain the following values:

  • Material number
  • Serial number: lower limit
  • Serial number: upper limit
  • Indicator for interpreting the lower limit as an open interval.

Dependencies

You can process the following objects with reference to a change number whose validity is defined by an effectivity type:

  • BOMs
  • Routings
  • Characteristics
  • Characteristics of class
  • Classification
