Procedure

Dependencies
Whether the existence of a document is checked or not depends on the version:
- Special character *
- If you use this character, all versions of the document are reserved for the change number. No object check takes place.
- As soon as you create a version of the document or change the document without reference to a change number, a dialog box appears with information regarding reserving this version for this change number.
- If you enter this change number in the document, the special character "*" is replaced by the appropriate version in the change master record.
- Specific version (for example: 02)
- The version of the document is reserved for the change number. An object check takes place.
- As soon as you edit the version (for example: 02), a dialog box appears with information regarding reserving this version for this change number. A document can be reserved for several change numbers. If a document is reserved for one or more of these change numbers, then you can still only enter one of these change numbers in the document.
