Documentation
Definition
Project element types for which the system does not propose the object link type when you create an object link.
The following types of project elements are possible:
Project Element Type Meaning
DPO Project definition
DPT Project template
CTO Checklist
CPT Checklist template
PPO Phase
PPT Phase in template
TTO Task
TTT Task in template
ITO Checklist item
ITT Checkliste item in template
VPO Control plan version
VPT Control plan version in template
MTG Role
MTT Role in template
If object links already exist for a project element and the relevant project element type was restricted for the corresponding object link type in the meantime, these links are still fully displayed with all their functions and can also be deleted. However, you cannot create any new links with this object link type for project elements of this project element type
If no restrictions exist for an object link type, all project element types permit the creation of a corresponding object link.
Example
Example 1
You want to allow the customer-specific object link type Z_ABC to be used in the entire operational project but not in the template and specify the following restrictions:
Object Type Project Element Type
Z_ABC DPT
Z_ABC CPT
Z_ABC PPT
Z_ABC TTT
Z_ABC ITT
Z_ABC VPT
Example 2
You want to allow the customer-specific object link type Z_XYZ to be used in the operational project definition and the project template only and specify the following restrictions:
Object Type Project Element Type
Z_XYZ CTO
Z_XYZ CPT
Z_XYZ PPO
Z_XYZ PPT
Z_XYZ TTO
Z_XYZ TTT
Z_XYZ ITO
Z_XYZ ITT
Z_XYZ VPO
Z_XYZ VPT
Note
You can copy the SAP object link type supplied with the standard system to the customer-specific namespace and restrict project element types there or use restrictions from the standard system.
If you copy an SAP object link type from the sample implementation by means of Customizing, the system does not copy the scattered, dependent Customizing entries (such as evaluations). Instead, use the report RCOPY_SAP_OBJECT_TYPE to copy an object link type in the SAP namespace to an object link type in the non-SAP namespace in a single step. Note that the source object link type is not locked during the copying process.
