In this step you define the characteristics groups in which you want to combine your process instruction characteristics, and you release these groups for use in process instructions. Only characteristics contained in these groups can be assigned to process instruction categories.

Standard settings

The SAP system contains a characteristics group for process instruction characteristics defined by SAP.

Recommendation

  • Define your own characteristics groups for your process instruction characteristics.
  • Since you normally have to use the characteristics of your process messages in process instructions as well, you should also release the characteristics groups containing your process messages for use in process instructions.

Activities

  1. Check the existing characteristics groups and define new ones if necessary.
  2. Release the characteristics groups for use in process instructions.

Further notes

The table in which you define your characteristics groups also contains the characteristics groups for other applications.
