Use

In this IMG activity, you define the confirmation parameters per plant and order type. The parameters are distributed among tab pages as described in the following.

General Settings

  • Control
    • The properties of the control key process control are defined at another point in Customizing (invocation also with the symbol next to the control key). It controls the execution of the confirmation processes.
    • You can specify how the quantities are to be determined in the case of automatically generated confirmations (milestone/progress confirmation).
  • Checks

    Via the checks you can specify:

    • What is to happen if the sequence of operations is not adhered to in the confirmation, or
    • What is to happen if you want to confirm a larger quantity than was confirmed for the previous operation

      You can choose between a termination message, an error message, a warning message, and an information message
    • Whether the total confirmed quantity of an operation is to be checked against an under- or overdelivery tolerance in the order header.
    • Which influence a QM results recording has on the confirmation.
    • Whether dates (such as the posting date, end of execution time, etc.) are allowed to be entered as dates lying further in the future than the time of entry.
  • HR update

    You can use the No HR Update indicator to activate the decoupling of HR and PP.

  • Selection

    You specify that only open orders are to be selected in the order network/collective order.

  • Propose time units

    You can choose a time unit that is to be proposed in the confirmation.

  • Goods movements

    You can use the All Components indicator to specify that all components assigned to the operation (i.e. not only backflush components) are to be displayed in the overview of goods movements. However, if you do not branch to the material overview in the confirmation, only the backflush components will continue to be withdrawn.

Individual Entry General

  • Confirmation function

    Here you can specify whether in the case of a confirmation the system is to propose a partial confirmation, final confirmation, or a final confirmation with clearance of open reservations.

  • Error handling/logs
    • You can use the Actual Costs indicator to specify that the log is also to be displayed if no error messages exist (i.e. if just warning or information messages exist).
    • You can use the Error Handling indicator to specify that an error log is to be displayed in the case of faulty items of goods movements (for backflushing or automatic goods receipts). This gives you another chance to correct these items using the material overview.
  • Shift

    In the Proposal field, you can specify whether the Shift field is to be shown in the confirmation, whether a shift is to be proposed there and, if so, how the system is to determine the shift to be proposed. See also Define Proposal for Shift

  • Customer-specific fields

    You can integrate customer-specific fields in certain confirmation transactions. In this workstep, you can specify whether or not these fields are to be shown in the operation confirmation and in the order header confirmation. See also: Define Customer-Specific Fields

  • Subdivision of quantities

    You can subdivide the Yield, Scrap, and Rework fields into further fields in order to be able to enter and evaluate certain specific quantities. Thus, for example, you can subdivide the Scrap field into several scrap fields (e.g. scrap due to bent parts, scrap due to scratched parts etc.). To do so, proceed as follows:

    • In the workstep Define Quantity Layout, enter the new quantity fields.
    • In the workstep Assign Quantity Layout, assign the previously defined quantity layout to a plant and an ID. If you make no assignment, the system uses the standard layout. In the standard layout, the fields Yield, Scrap and Rework are displayed.

      See also: Define and Assign Quantity Layout

  • Notification type

    If the system is to automatically generate a quality notification at the time of confirmation, you must specify a notification type for Quality Management. In addition, you must make the following settings for the quantity types for which a quality notificaiton is then to be generated in the workstep Define Quantity Layout:

    • Code group
    • Code
    • Number of Defects
    • Reason

      With these settings, you satisfy the preconditions for the system to generate a quality notification in the background in the case of the following confirmation transactions:

    • Time Ticket (Single-Screen Entry) CO11N/COR6N
    • Confirmation of Production/Process Order (Order Header) CO15/CORK

      In the administrative data of the display and cancellation transactions for the confirmation, you can display the quality notification that the system automatically created at the time of confirmation. Double-click on the number of the quality notification to display the latter. This is possible in the following transactions:

    • Display Confirmation CO14/CORT
    • Cancel Confirmation CO13/CORS

Individual Entry Operation Initial Screen

  • Propose data to be confirmed

    You can have the still-open confirmation data proposed for entry. In the case of the quantities and activities, the SAP system then proposes the difference between the standard and already confirmed values. Otherwise the standard values are proposed as confirmation data in each case.

  • Display confirmed data/Display standard values

    For information purposes, you can display both the already confirmed data and the standard values.

  • Screen control time ticket

    If you do not choose an entry screen on the initial screen, you can invoke the following alternative entry screens through parameterization:

    • Screen with the most important actual data without display of already confirmed values and standard values
    • Screen with quantities and activities and display of already confirmed values and standard values
    • Screen with quantities and activities, forecast standard values, and a display of the already confirmed values and standard values

Selection

You specify that confirmable/confirmed operations are selected when the confirmation processes are carried out.

Requirements

Standard settings

Activities

Define the parameter settings for the confirmations in your plant for the possible order types.
