This IMG activity describes how you adapt the SAP status management to meet your own requirements.

General Information on Status Management

The SAP system differentiates between the following statuses in status management:

System Status

The SAP system contains a central table of statuses that are valid for, and can by used by, all applications.

These statuses are maintained by SAP and cannot be changed. They are called system statuses.

Business Transactions

The SAP system contains another central table of business transactionsthat are valid for, and can by used by, all applications.

These business transactions are maintained by SAP and cannot be changed.

Business Transaction - System Status

In another central table, also predefined by SAP, a system status is allocated to every business transaction and it is determined whether thecorresponding system status is deleted or set during the transaction.

Objects - Business Transactions

Another table defines which business transactions are permitted for which SAP objects (order, EDM profile, EDM profile values). This allocation is also predetermined by SAP.

Result

The above allocations result in:

  • Which system statuses can be used for an object
  • Which system statuses are set for the individual transactions

Status Profile

In the Define Status Profile activity, you can create your own status profiles. You must allocate at least one object (equipment, technicallocation, for example) to each status profile.

Every status profile contains one or more permissible statuses.

For each of these statuses you can determine the system response within the limits of the business transactions predefined by SAP.

In the status profile you:

  • Define your own statuses (user status) and document their functions in a corresponding long text
  • Determine status numbers to define the possible order of user statuses
  • Define an initial status, which is automatically activated when you create the object.
  • Determine which user status is automatically activated whenyou execute a business transaction
  • Define which transactions are permitted or forbidden if a certain status is active.

Status Number

You can define a status number for every user status.

The status number determines the order in which the user statuses can be activated.

If you do not allocate a status number to the user status, it can be used at any time. However, only one user status with a status number may be active at any time.

If you do allocate a status number to a user status, you also have to specify a lowest and a highest status number for that status. Thesenumbers restrict the status number interval from which the ensuinguser status can be selected.

Notes

There are a number of restrictions regarding the status profile for EDM profile values. This implies that the user status for EDM profile values really only serves as additional information. It is possible for theuser status to have more controlling characteristics, however, only to a certain degree:

  • Only one status profile can be actively allocated for EDM profile values
  • If an initial status is specified, it is ignored
  • During profile value import and the interpolation/extrapolationof profile values, the user status is not set by means of atransaction but directly by the application.
  • This keeps the number of transactions small and the application flexible.
  • Before profile value import and interpolation/extrapolationof profile values, the customer must mark the user statuses fordeletion in the status profile.

Activities

Define your user status for EDM profile values.
